The master craft of scripting short-form vertical video (Reels, TikTok, Shorts) for watch-through. Use when someone wants a short-form video script, a Reel/TikTok/Short script, help with hooks, retention, pacing, the ending/loop, sound-off captions, or fixing early drop-off. Watch-through, not likes, rules short-form; the script's only job is to be un-skippable. Uses the WATCH framework. Reads brand-profile + voice-builder first; pulls the 'what' from the content-angle skills and the hook from hook-writer. The agent writes the script (spoken lines + on-screen text + beat/shot direction + hook variants + CTA); the human shoots/performs/edits; WoopSocial publishes the finished file. Routes platform specifics to reels-script / tiktok-script / youtube-shorts; pairs with talking-head-and-piece-to-camera. NEVER bait-and-switches the hook or fabricates a stat. Distinct from hook-writer, captions-and-clipping, and ai-video/veo-3/heygen (which generate the video this scripts).
