Just ask in the chat: how "Make the wording simpler" changed the script
Once a video is made, you can have its script rewritten just by asking the AI in the chat for what you want changed. Here we share a record of 2 requests we made on training video scripts, with the words we used and what changed.
We used 2 videos for new employee training (information security, and exchanging business cards).
1. Where to ask: the "Edit with AI" panel
Press the round button with the WriteVideo logo in the editor, and the "Edit with AI" (AI で編集) panel opens. "Ideas" (アイデア) such as "Make the wording simpler" (言葉を簡単にする) are listed there too.
When you ask, the original lines appear in the script with a red strikethrough, and the new lines in green. Compare them, and if they look good, just press "Apply" (反映する).
2. Record 1: simpler wording in just 1 chapter
What we asked: Pressing "Make the wording simpler" (言葉を簡単にする) under "Ideas" (アイデア) puts those words in the input field. We then added the chapter we wanted changed and what we wanted, and sent it.
"Make the wording simpler. Please make the wording simpler in the lines of chapter 4 (how to spot suspicious emails) only." (言葉を簡単にするチャプター4（あやしいメールの見分け方）のセリフだけ、言葉を簡単にしてください。)
The recording below shows the flow from making the request, to the before and after appearing side by side, to applying them and the script of the requested chapter being revised.
What changed: A suggestion of "10 changes" (10件の変更) appeared, and 10 lines in chapter 4 were rewritten. The other chapters stayed as they were.
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| "Check 1 is checking the sender." (確認1は、差出人のチェックです。) | "The first is the sender." (1つ目は、差出人です。) |
| "Check 2 is checking the wording." (確認2は、文面の確認です。) | "The second is the email's text." (2つ目は、メールの文章です。) |
| "You need to be careful with emails that rush you with words like 'urgent' or 'by today' and give you no time to think calmly." (「至急」「本日中に」といった言葉で急がせ、冷静に考える時間を与えないメールには注意が必要です。) | "Watch out for emails that rush you, with words like 'urgent' or 'by today.'" (「至急」や「本日中に」など、急がせるメールには注意しましょう。) |
3. Record 2: a conversational tone in 2 chapters
What we asked
"Rewrite the lines in chapters 1 and 2 in a soft way, as if talking to new employees." (1章と2章のセリフを、新入社員に語りかけるような、やわらかい言い方に直して。)
What changed: A suggestion with 2 changes appeared, and once it was applied, the lines in chapters 1 and 2 changed.
| Before | After | |
|---|---|---|
| Chapter 1 | "Exchanging business cards is the first situation where you are tested as a working professional. Let's cover the basics in two minutes." (名刺交換は、社会人が最初に試される場面です。基本を二分で押さえましょう。) | "Exchanging business cards is one of the important situations that all of you, as new employees, first experience as working professionals. Let's start by gently going over the basics in two minutes." (名刺交換は、新入社員のみなさんが社会人として最初に経験する大切な場面のひとつです。まずは基本を、二分でやさしく確認していきましょう。) |
| Chapter 2 | "Who offers theirs first? What do you do with the card you receive? The impression is decided in the first few dozen seconds." (先に出すのはどちらか。受け取った名刺はどうするか。最初の数十秒で、印象が決まります。) | "You might sometimes be unsure who should offer a card first, or how to handle a card you receive, right? Let's go over the key points so that you make a good impression in the first few dozen seconds." (どちらが先に名刺を出すのか、受け取った名刺をどう扱えばよいのか、迷うこともありますよね。最初の数十秒でよい印象を持ってもらえるように、ポイントを押さえていきましょう。) |
4. Tips for asking, from the 2 records
- Say where: write it like "only the lines in chapter 4 (…)" (チャプター4（…）のセリフだけ) or "the lines in chapters 1 and 2" (1章と2章のセリフを). In record 1, only the chapter we wrote was revised
- Start from "Ideas" (アイデア): press "Make the wording simpler" (言葉を簡単にする), then add where you want it changed. This is how we asked in record 1
- Say who the words are for: "as if talking to new employees" (新入社員に語りかけるような)
- Name the tone you want in a few words: "simpler wording" (言葉を簡単に), "a soft way" (やわらかい言い方に)
If you want to tidy up just one chapter, try adding where first (tip 1); to aim it at new employees, try adding who it is for first (tip 3).
