Workflow Steps
Write a voice-first script (hook + structure)
ChatGPTFaceless videos fail when the script reads like an article. This step forces a “spoken” script with a strong hook so your first render is usable.
PROMPT
You are my YouTube faceless video scriptwriter. Topic: [topic] Audience: [audience] Video length: [60–90s / 3–5m / 6–8m] Tone: [calm / energetic / educational] Goal: [teach / entertain / persuade] Rules: - Hook in the first 2 sentences - Short sentences (max 14–18 words) - Add clear scene cues in brackets like [B-ROLL: ...] - End with a simple CTA Output: 1) One-sentence promise 2) Full script 3) 5 title options 4) 5 thumbnail text options (3–5 words)
Generate the first narrated video (voice + visuals)
FlikiYour first render is not final — it is a quality check. Getting a clean first pass quickly lets you fix pacing/voice before wasting time on perfect visuals.
SETTINGS
Fliki setup Paste script: [script] Voice: [choose 2 candidates] Pacing: [normal / slightly faster] Style: [clean / documentary / minimal] B-roll: auto-suggest ON Subtitles: ON Checklist before render: - Hook line is within first 2 seconds - Scene cues are respected - No sentence is too long for speech Export: 1080p (start here), landscape or 9:16 depending on target
Polish for “publish-ready” (pacing, captions, retention)
FlikiMost faceless videos are “almost good” but lose retention due to slow pacing and weak captions. This step makes the output platform-ready without over-editing.
ACTION GUIDE
Final polish checklist 1) Cut 10–20% of pauses (tighten pacing) 2) Replace any vague lines with concrete lines (no abstractions) 3) Captions: - Keep lines short (max 6–10 words) - High contrast - Stay inside safe area 4) Add 1–2 pattern breaks: - zoom cut - b-roll swap - on-screen keyword highlight 5) Export: - Shorts/Reels: 1080×1920 - YouTube: 1920×1080 - Audio: balanced, voice clearly louder than music
Pro Tips
- ✓Keep it 45–90s first.
