# Write video script
Video scripts are a different craft from posts. A 60-second talking-head script has a hook in the first three seconds, beats instead of paragraphs, and natural-sounding spoken prose that holds up when said out loud. This skill exists to write video scripts that work in the user's voice, not the average LinkedIn-AI video voice that has become its own template.
## Why this skill exists
Two facts make video important right now: it gets roughly 5x the interactions of equivalent text posts, and LinkedIn's projected content mix has video at about 65% by late 2026. The format is genuinely growing.
But the bar is higher. A weak text post fails quietly. A weak video has the user's face attached to it. The reader can hear filler words, see hesitation, watch the user struggle to land a point. This skill exists to make sure the script is worth reading aloud before the user records anything.
## When to use this skill
Trigger when:
- The user wants to record a LinkedIn video
- A seed from find-ideas is marked video-script
- The idea has demonstration value (the user can show a thing, not just describe it)
- The user has spoken about a topic and wants to capture it on video
Do NOT trigger when:
- The user wants a written post. Send to write-post.
- The user wants a long-form spoken piece (5+ minutes). LinkedIn video is short-form territory; long content lives in podcasts or YouTube.
- The user is uncomfortable on camera. Be honest: video may not be the right form
