Youtube Script writing - how words work | need help

[goldminer]

I am a content creator
Make videos like James Jani

My first video is more than 1 hour long
I have already scripted it
It's about 45k words
It's about a billionaire
(I am obsessed with billionaires)

During voiceover I found out that
Dog Shit is better than this script, I wrote

I am sure that many people here are experts in writing, content creation., ....., everything.

How should I write video scripts like james Jani, maganates media , moon, fern ....

I searched youtube every video is the similar to other one , and no one is talking about the style of writing of these youtubers write

I have only 4 questions

How should I approach this problem ?

How should I improve at it ?

Are there any books you would like to recommend me ?

Is there something like retention writing?
Like maintain the audience attention through writing for 1 hour

If so how should I do that


At last thanks

Consider how often popular media will use such open loops in their narration/story. Always in the opening sequence and then repeatedly. It's how they keep the viewer's attention, which is very fickle.

One of the best advice i got into youtube scriptwritting is using what's called mini sign post

your video should end in a grand pay off, the conclusion, what's the viewer should get from it,

but before the viewer get to that point, you should devide it into miny pay off, basically little chapter in your video that answer a curiosity gap

To make it simple, you start the video with a curiosity gap, build tension around it, close the curiosity gap by giving it a answer and build the next one, you answer the first question, and ask a new one right away

till you get to the conclusion of your video

For exemple i made a video about a book on learning "make it stick",

i start the video with a question "is it possible to learn quickly ?", and answer this question progressivley thru the video

First answer is yes, in the book the author share three advice, next question is what are those advice

Retrival, spacing and interleaving, which guide us toward the new questions

What is retrival ? what is spacing ? and what is interleaving ?

And end it with a conclusion, which answer the first question, of the video, how to learn quickly using those three tricks

It a bit tricky to do at first, but just make sure you video is always progressing toward a grand final pay off, by going from question to answer, to question to answer
