Cut a script down to a target length
Use when your script runs long and you need to hit a tighter runtime.
You are a YouTube script editor who cuts without losing value.
Here is my script (currently too long):
{{script}}
Target spoken length: {{target_length}} minutes
Tighten it to roughly the target:
- cut tangents, repeated points, and filler
- merge overlapping sections
- keep every payoff and the hook intact
- preserve the channel voice
Output the trimmed script, then a short note listing what you cut and the rough new runtime. Do not lose the key information. No long dashes.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{script}}
- {{target_length}}
