Why This Prompt Works (The Theory)

This prompt is effective because it balances clarity with creativity, guiding the video content specialist to produce impactful and engaging content while leveraging their expertise. It establishes a clear objective—creating a concise, dynamic video that aligns with the brand’s tone and aesthetic. By outlining specific requirements, such as including key points, maintaining clarity, and concluding with a strong call to action, the prompt provides a structured framework that minimizes ambiguity.

The prompt employs several effective cues and methods:

  • “Act as” Directive: Begins by positioning the content specialist in a specific, expert role (“Act as a video content specialist with 10 years of experience”), ensuring they approach the task with the appropriate mindset and expertise.

  • Attention-Grabbing Introduction: Directly instructs the creator to start the video with an impactful opening, ensuring the audience is immediately engaged.

  • Logical Flow and Key Points: Encourages the inclusion of 4-5 critical points from the source material, ensuring the content is both substantial and cohesive.

  • Brand Alignment: Reinforces the importance of adhering to the specific tone and aesthetic of the brand to ensure consistency across content.

  • Iterative Clarity: Includes a mechanism for feedback (“If you cannot find the essence within the article, ask me”), promoting collaboration and refinement.

This structured approach, combined with ChatGPT’s ability to process instructions and role-play scenarios effectively, ensures the video captures attention, sustains engagement, and motivates viewers to take action.

How to Use This Prompt (The Instructions)

  1. Prepare Your Source Material: Start by selecting a blog post or article that contains meaningful insights, key developments, or actionable data to serve as the foundation for your video.

  2. Customize the Prompt: Adapt the prompt to your specific needs. Replace placeholders like “[Your Blogpost goes here]” with the actual content and adjust the tone and aesthetic details to reflect your brand’s identity.

  3. Provide Context: Share additional details, such as your target audience, the purpose of the video, and any unique characteristics of your brand that should influence the video’s style.

  4. Review and Refine: Evaluate the initial output against your brand standards and the outlined requirements. Provide feedback to fine-tune the video’s tone, pacing, and message.
