What is in a Script?

Each script includes 3 main sections.

  1. The Voice-Over
  2. On-Screen Text
  3. Slide Description

The Voice Over is the suggested spoken text, and will be the driving force of your message. Not every slide will have on screen text. These bits of text are suggestions to help visual important aspects of the script.

Finally, there is the Slide Description. This is will give you a detailed description of what you should add to your slide, to match the feeling and tone of your of your script.
