I find that it really helps me to do a text to speech conversion of tge script while I am working on it. Then I play it back while following along with it in my printed script. I find that this helps me catch things like repetitive use of the same word as well as catch typos far faster than editing visually. The result is a tight script that sounds just the way I want it far faster. But unfortunately the state of the art for text to speech generation is not there yet to use this output for most voiceovers. If only I could get more complete control over the artificial voice...and give it more personality, I would have a finished voice over instead of a finished script......
Jenn, what format do you find works best for a corporate script - movie screenplay, tv script, AV two-column, or something else? Or do you use different formats depending on the project - animated explainer, live action, text-only, etc.?
Another great video - thank you for the info! Have you thought about doing a review of one the AI script-writing apps that are popping up everywhere lately? Would love to know your take on them!!
So happy I "stumbled" upon your video, it is fan-TAS-tic! I incorporate most of those techniques, but hadn't consciously thought about Active v Passive Voice. Brilliant!! Thank you so much :)
Big thanks from a 1st timer writing's a script for my video I usually just do it over the top of my head , but this time my client want me to present the process on paper, I didn't know where to start
