Good to know

Before you start.

Can I change the example?

Yes. The hook, subject, narration and scene directions are starting points. Change any of them in the draft before you generate.

Is the storyboard a finished video?

No. It shows the format and sample copy. Your video depends on the model you choose and the edits you make.

Does this guarantee views?

No format can. Use the structure to make a clear, original short, post it, and learn from how your audience responds.
