Step 1: Finding Video Ideas
As we have our niche figured out, now we need is video ideas that will perform really well.
To find video ideas, we’ll use ChatGPT. To get the best video ideas from ChatGPT, we need to provide a detailed prompt to it. Don’t worry, you don’t have to write the prompt yourself. Here’s a prompt I made, you can just copy and paste it into ChatGPT to get video ideas for yourself!
Generate [INSERT THE NUMBER OF VIDEO IDEAS YOU WANT TO GENERATE] engaging Bible story ideas that can be adapted into short AI-animated videos. The stories should focus on well-known biblical events, figures, parables, and themes. They should be easy to understand, emotionally compelling, and visually engaging.
Each idea should:
1. Cover a significant biblical event or character (e.g., Moses parting the Red Sea, David vs. Goliath, or the Crucifixion).
2. Have a clear moral lesson or spiritual significance that resonates with a broad audience.
3. Be suitable for a short AI-animated video format (ranging from 2 to 20 minutes).
4. Include dramatic moments, miracles, battles, or divine interventions to maintain viewer engagement.
5. Appeal to both Christians and those interested in historical/religious stories in an engaging and informative way.
Here are few example ideas:
1. The Fall of Jericho – How Joshua and the Israelites brought down Jericho’s walls through faith and obedience.
2. Daniel and the Lions' Den – A thrilling survival story showcasing unwavering faith in God.
3. Jesus Walks on Water – A powerful miracle that teaches faith and trust in God.
4. The Plagues of Egypt – The dramatic story of Moses confronting Pharaoh and the 10 plagues.
5. The Resurrection of Jesus – The most significant event in Christianity, showing victory over death.
This is a prompt I made that generated good results with ChatGPT, but you can tweak it here and there as you like to make it even better.
After you give this prompt to ChatGPT, it will come up with multiple unique video ideas along with a short outline of the story. From those ideas, choose the one you like the most and continue with it.
Step 2: Generating Video Script
After you’ve found a good video idea to work on, you need to create a story or script based on the video idea. To do that we’ll use ChatGPT again.
You can either ask ChatGPT to simply create a video script by providing the idea you chose earlier or give it a little more detailed prompt to generate your video script. Here’s a prompt I used to generate a highly engaging video script. You can just copy and paste it into ChatGPT or change it as you like to make it better. It’s totally upon you!
Create a highly engaging, emotionally captivating, and cinematic narration script for Bible Story [ENTER THE TOPIC THAT YOU GENERATED EARLER]. The script should be descriptive, dramatic, and thought-provoking, ensuring the audience remains hooked from the first second to the last.
Structure & Style:
Hook (First 5-10 Seconds): Start with a powerful question, suspenseful statement, or dramatic scene to immediately grab attention.
Example: "What if your greatest test of faith came in the face of death? This is the story of Daniel, a man who faced the lions—literally."
Introduction (Set the Scene):
Use vivid imagery to describe the time, place, and emotional state of the characters.
Example: "The air was thick with fear. The torches flickered against the cold stone walls of Babylon's great palace, where Daniel knelt in prayer… unaware of the punishment awaiting him."
Conflict & Rising Tension:
Build drama and intensity by emphasizing challenges, betrayals, and high-stakes moments.
Example: "The crowd gasped as King Nebuchadnezzar’s decree echoed through the city: ‘Bow to the golden idol—or burn in the fiery furnace!’"
Miracles, Divine Intervention, or Resolution:
Showcase God’s power, wisdom, or the character’s faith overcoming impossible odds.
Example: "The sea roared and raged, but as Moses lifted his staff, the impossible happened—the Red Sea parted, revealing a path to freedom."
Powerful Conclusion & Call to Reflection:
End with a memorable lesson or emotional punch that leaves the audience thinking.
Example: "Even in the darkest moments, faith shines brightest. Would YOU have the courage to trust in God like Daniel?"
Additional Writing Guidelines:
1. Use Short, Punchy Sentences: Make the script easy to follow and impactful.
2. Mix Descriptive Narration with Dialogue: This creates a more immersive experience.
3. Use Strong, Emotional Words: Engage the audience with words that evoke fear, awe, joy, or inspiration.
4. Incorporate Suspense and Cliffhangers: Keep viewers hooked until the very last second.
Example Script Opening (Daniel in the Lion’s Den):
"A chilling silence filled the den. The ground trembled as massive shadows moved in the darkness—eyes glowing, breath heavy. The lions… were hungry.
Daniel knelt, his heart steady, his faith unshaken. He had defied the king’s decree, refusing to bow to anyone but God. And now… he was to be devoured alive.
The iron gate slammed shut. The crowd gasped. Would Daniel’s faith save him? Or was this his final prayer?"
After giving this prompt to ChatGPT, it will come up with a story that is highly engaging and joyful for viewers to watch.
If your script comes out like this, with all those punctuations and unwanted stuffs, then you can type a prompt like “I need only the narration and nothing else.” After doing that, all the unwanted stuffs gets removed and you get a script ready to be converted into a voiceover.
