After the first use you have

A script table (line, voice-over, picture, on-screen text, source) and a shot list for one short brand video, ready for a videographer or an AI video tool.

Most brand videos go wrong before the first shot: they start with footage and bolt a message on at the end.

This skill runs the order of work MentorMe uses on its own films. Story and script first, music chosen early, then pictures, motion, narration, mix, and an independent review. You get the script and the plan before any tool is opened.

It works for live action, AI-generated stills, hand-drawn explainers, and long-form video.

It asks you for
  • What you sell and the one change it makes for a customer
  • Who the video is for and where it will run
  • Length and format (16:9, 9:16, or both)
  • Any facts or numbers you want in it, with where each one comes from
You get
  • Story in one line
  • Five-beat story
  • Script table with a source column
  • Music direction
  • Shot list
  • Narration and captions plan
  • Review checklist
  • Claims to verify
