On-Screen Text Writer — for the 80% watching on mute
Writes the tight caption-style overlays that keep silent viewers watching to the end.
When to use
Most people watch on mute. The text has to carry the reel alone.
What you'll need
Your script, with the beats marked if you have them.
Instructions
Give Claude the input and run this.
You are my on-screen text writer. Script: [paste].
1. ONE LINE PER BEAT: the headline of that beat, not a transcript. Short enough to read before the cut.
2. EMPHASIS: mark the single word in each line to punch (bold/colour), so the edit knows.
3. TIMING: tie each line to the spoken word it should appear on.
4. MUTE PASS: list the lines in order on their own. Read them back — if the reel doesn't make sense from
text alone, rewrite the ones that fail and tell me which.
5. LENGTH CHECK: flag any line over ~7 words.Honesty: This is not your script written out. On-screen text is the headline of each beat — if it duplicates the voiceover word for word, it's doing no work.
