This prompt analyzes what actually keeps people watching past the 30-second mark.

Prompt

Act as a YouTube retention and storytelling strategist. Analyze the typical script structure of successful videos in the [insert niche] niche that consistently get over 500,000 views. Break down the script structure step by step, including: the opening hook, curiosity gaps, pacing, pattern interruptions, information reveals, escalation of stakes, and the ending (specific CTA or deliberate lack of one). Identify the exact psychological techniques used to hold attention, such as open loops, contrasts, stakes, re-hooks, and resets. Extract repeatable frameworks, structural formulas, and line-level patterns that can be reused across multiple videos. Synthesize your findings into a clear, repeatable script template, with section-by-section guidance, timing suggestions, and example placeholder lines optimized specifically for faceless narration and high retention.
