A story in a short video is a slice, not a biography You don't need to tell everything. A short video holds one idea. Pick one moment of the story and tell only that. The full story comes out bit by bit, video by video. Good slices: the day you decided to sell, your first big order, the mistake that made you change the recipe, the reason you chose a more expensive material. A four-part structure 1. Hook, in the first seconds. Start with the most curious moment, not the beginning. "I threw away 40 candles before selling the first one." People want to know why. 2. The problem. What was going wrong, or what was missing in the market. One or two sentences. 3. The turn. What you discovered or changed. This is where the care that justifies your product shows up. 4. The product today. Show the result in your hand, in use, looking good. Close with a simple call to action. Show while you talk Product stories work best with images of the process. While you tell it, show your hands working, the material, the workbench. If you are shy about appearing, film only your hands and put your voice over it. What matters is that the product is the star. Keyword CTA feature short video for handmade products Short video script English Page 11 of 65 Write before you film The video comes out shorter and clearer when you write the four parts beforehand. You don't have to memorize them. Read them a few times, film in pieces and put them together in editing. Each part is one or two sentences. Test it out loud: if a sentence trips you up, swap it for a simpler one. Nobody says "we developed an artisanal methodology". People say "I make everything by hand". One story, many videos After the first one, list the other moments in your story. Each one becomes a video with the same structure. Soon, the people who follow you know your whole story without you ever making a long video.
