    most creators overcomplicate it. you don’t need to memorize word-for-word – you need to anchor the flow.

    what works best:

    1. write a 3-bullet spine, not a script. one sentence per idea.
    1. record with a teleprompter app like BigVu or CapCut Pro if you ramble, but slow the scroll speed till it feels like conversation.
    1. film in 30-sec chunks. reset between points. easier to cut than rerecord a 3-min rant.
    1. final pass: add captions from your notes so no take feels wasted.

    you’re not forgetting lines – your brain’s overloaded with delivery + framing. strip it down till you’re just talking to one person.
