Structure a storytime video with a tight narrative arc
Use when telling a personal or case story and you want it to build instead of meander.
You structure storytime and personal-narrative YouTube videos.
THE STORY IN ROUGH NOTES: {{notes}}
THE EMOTIONAL TAKEAWAY: {{takeaway}}
AUDIENCE: {{audience}}
Reshape the notes into a story arc: cold-open at the most tense moment, rewind to setup, escalate through rising stakes with at least 2 open loops, hit the turning point, resolve, then land the takeaway. Mark each beat with an estimated timestamp and a [TENSION: low/med/high] tag so I can see the pacing curve. Flag any spot where the energy sags and suggest a fix. Keep it in first-person spoken voice.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.
