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 spotlight and numbered tooltip: the eye goes to one control and knows which step this is. How it works: everything dims except the publish button, a numbered tooltip names the step, the cursor glides in and clicks. It is right for: product walkthroughs and onboarding videos. Three to five steps per 10 seconds, the state change shown on screen, then zoom out and reset so the loop closes. 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.
