Prompt instructions
Give me an edit brief: where it goes on the timeline, the exact settings, and what to check before export, for a short video about [your product], for [your audience]. The technique is show the making: the viewer sees the work behind the video, which makes a claim about the process believable. How it works: an editing timeline with tracks and waveforms builds under the speaker and a playhead runs across it. It is right for: videos about how something was made or edited. People keep how-it-was-made material: one 3D film's post, with its making-of linked under it, had more bookmarks than likes, 6,322 against 6,143. Be concrete: numbers, seconds and settings, no theory. Ask me one question first if something you need is missing.
The same prompt works in Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini.
