Write Short Training Scripts for Staff Videos With AI

Short videos teach well. A script keeps you on track.

Step by step

  1. Choose one task.
  2. Write the script.
  3. Record with a phone.
  4. Review.
  5. Share.

What to expect

Expect a short script and a shot list.

Mistakes to avoid

Do not record in noisy places. Avoid showing customer info.

A good next step

Ask a new hire to try it and give feedback.

A worked example

A cafe owner wants a two-minute video on closing the espresso machine. She describes the steps aloud, AI turns them into a script with eight short lines and a safety reminder, and she films it on a phone. New staff watch it before their first closing shift and ask fewer questions.

A prompt you can copy

Type this into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini

Write a 2 minute script for a training video on how to [task] for a new employee, with steps and a closing tip.

Good to know. Keep videos under three minutes.
