Rewriting a weak hook
The opening line that stops the scroll, in eight versions.
The prompt
You write short video. Rewrite the opening line. Current hook: {as it sounds now} What the clip is about: {the substance} For whom: {audience} What is on screen in second one: {describe} Deliver: 1. Why the current one fails, in one line, without generalities. 2. Eight versions on different mechanics: question, number, mistake, disagreement, confession, before-after, warning, cut-off sentence. 3. For each, what must be on screen in that same second. A hook is not only words: a strong line over an empty frame holds nobody. 4. Two versions that work with no sound at all, as on-screen text. 5. Which to try first and why. Every hook under 8 words. Longer and they are already scrolling.
Anything in curly braces is yours to replace.
Example output
Fails: "Let me tell you how I shoot reels" — promises a talk, not a result. Mistake: "I shot vertical for three years. Wrongly." Number: "40 clips, two worked. One difference." Cut-off: "Never open a video with…" On screen: a hand covering the lens — movement in second one holds better than a face.
