Prompts:
Visual style:
1st style:
Highly detailed, hand-drawn illustration style with exaggerated cartoon-like expressions. Bold
outlines, warm and earthy color palette with strong contrast. Vintage 18th–19th century
setting influence, with stylized characters and old-fashioned clothing. Subtle grime, textured
shading, and humorous or satirical undertones. Background should be minimal or flat to
keep focus on characters and props. Lighting is bright but soft, with visible pen-like strokes
and slight imperfections that mimic traditional ink and watercolor illustrations.
2nd style:
Traditional, hand-drawn illustration with bold, black outlines and exaggerated cartoonish
features. Muted, earthy color palette dominated by browns, ochres, and beiges. Subtle paper
texture in the background, mimicking aged parchment. Characters have expressive, slightly
grotesque faces with strong emotion and humor. Shading is done with hatching and soft
gradients to mimic ink and watercolor. The overall tone is vintage, satirical, and reminiscent
of 18th–19th century folk art or illustrated almanacs. Backgrounds are minimal or flat,
keeping attention on character detail.
3rd style:
Traditional, hand-drawn illustration with bold, black outlines and exaggerated, cartoonish
features. Muted, earthy color palette dominated by browns, ochres, forest greens, and faded
reds. Backgrounds feature rustic medieval elements like stone walls, wooden beams,
barrels, lanterns, and cobblestone textures. Paper texture is soft and subtle—avoiding heavy
grain, mimicking aged parchment without overpowering the linework. Shading is achieved
through hatching and gentle ink-wash gradients, blending clarity with a vintage, handcrafted
feel. The overall tone is satirical and nostalgic, inspired by 18th–19th century folk art and
illustrated almanacs, with an emphasis on strong character outlines, minimalistic yet
immersive settings, and expressive detail.
Script:
Write a YouTube video script on [INSERT TOPIC HERE] in the style of a smart, witty, and
immersive storyteller. The script should:
● Hook the audience immediately with a vivid, intriguing, or slightly dark opening.
Use humor, surprise, or a relatable challenge to draw viewers in.
● Break the fourth wall: Address the audience directly (“Hey guys,” “Let me know in
the comments,” “Before we dive in, hit like if you enjoy this…”).
● Set the mood: Suggest how viewers should watch (e.g., “Dim the lights, get
comfortable…”).
● Immerse the viewer: Use second-person (“You wake up in…”, “You try to…”),
placing the audience inside the story or scenario.
● Describe sensory details: Use vivid, concrete imagery for sights, sounds, smells,
and feelings. Don’t shy away from the gritty, gross, or uncomfortable.
● Balance humor and realism: Mix dark humor, sarcasm, and playful exaggeration
with factual, well-researched information.
● Structure the script in scenes or chapters: Move through a day, a journey, or a
sequence of events, using transitions like “Now that you’ve survived X, let’s talk
about Y…”
● Use punchy, short paragraphs and dialogue: Keep the pacing brisk and
conversational. Break up long explanations with jokes, rhetorical questions, or
asides.
● Include relatable comparisons to modern life: Highlight contrasts between past
and present, or between expectation and reality.
● Engage with the audience throughout: Ask questions, invite comments, and
encourage interaction.
● End with a reflective or inspiring note: Tie the story back to the present, offer a
takeaway, or leave the audience with a thought-provoking question.
Language and Style:
● Use clear, accessible English (upper high school to college reading level).
● Favor active voice, vivid verbs, and concrete nouns.
● Use humor, irony, and the occasional pop culture reference.
● Avoid jargon unless explained in a witty, simple way.
● Keep sentences varied in length for rhythm and emphasis.
● Use direct address (“you,” “we,” “let’s”) to maintain intimacy and energy.
Format:
● Write as if for spoken delivery, not a formal essay.
● Use time stamps or scene markers if needed for pacing.
● Include natural pauses for visuals, sound effects, or on-screen text.
● Suggest moments for audience engagement (e.g., “Comment below if…”).
Example Opening:
“Hey guys, tonight we’re diving into [TOPIC]. Forget everything Hollywood told you—this is
the real story, and trust me, you probably wouldn’t last a day. So before you get too
comfortable, hit that like button if you enjoy this kind of deep dive, and let me know in the
comments where you’re watching from. Now, dim the lights, maybe grab a snack, and let’s
jump in…”
Script Continuation:
Now write a new part of my script that introduces [TOPIC]. Both, old and new part, should
sound like they are part of one story.
