Wanna write better scripts? Try this.
When you write a script, present it out loud to yourself to look for areas to improve or change.
This will give you a much better idea of the flow of the content and the final result too.
But that's not the trick!!
The thing is, when we do this, we are both the listener and the presenter, which makes it harder to be critical of ourselves, so we don’t actually spot all of the issues.
To really level this up, present it to someone else.
They don't actually need to say anything, simply presenting face to face creates something called “the audience effect”
The audience effect makes you aware of how your words are perceived and received as you say them.
This helps you pick up on awkward content and potential problems that you wont when you present it to yourself.
It also will make you more aware of how your audience reacts, and it puts you in a heightened state which makes the clarity of your message more obvious.
