## Your task
Write a 60-second video script for a construction contractor running several sites about [TOPIC] for clients, site managers and subcontractors. Format as a two-column table: visuals and voice-over. Hook in the first three seconds, one idea, one call to action, and on-screen text for viewers watching without sound.
## About my situation
- What we must respect: site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets
- How we measure success: schedule variance and safety incidents
## What matters in Construction
- How customers decide: clients choose on track record, price, committed timeline and quality; contracts are fixed-price or item-rate.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: site-safety law (OSHA in the US, the BOCW Act in India); building codes and permits; environmental clearances; contract conditions such as FIDIC; labour laws for site workers.
- Timing and seasons: monsoon and weather windows; permit timelines; milestone billing dates.
- Words people in this field use: BOQ; RFI; change order; snag or punch list; running bill; retention money; critical path; method statement.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.
## How to work through it
1. Write a hook for the first three seconds.
2. Focus on one idea.
3. Pair every line of voice-over with a visual.
4. Add on-screen text for silent viewing.
5. End with one call to action.
## What to deliver
- Two-column script
- On-screen text
- Title and thumbnail idea
## Rules
- Make every point specific to my situation and my industry; replace generic advice with detail that fits.
- Use plain language, short sentences, and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Use only the facts I give you. Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.
## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Every claim can be backed up, and the copy speaks to clients, site managers and subcontractors in words they use.
- It is written for a construction contractor running several sites; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Nothing in it breaks site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why this prompt works
The “60-second video script” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: two-column script; on-screen text; and title and thumbnail idea. It makes the assistant work through 5 steps in order, starting with "write a hook for the first three seconds", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 4 tests and fixes anything that fails.
This version is written for a construction contractor running several sites, so the assistant keeps site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets in mind and judges the result by schedule variance and safety incidents. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.
How to get the best answer
- Fill every bracket with real detail: [TOPIC] should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: review it against what you know about schedule variance and safety incidents before you share it.
