# Short-Form Video
|
||
|
||
Engineer a 9:16 video that survives the swipe. Short-form is a retention machine, not a small launch film: a hook that earns the first second, pattern interrupts that reset attention every few seconds, and often a loop that buys watch-time past 100%. The craft is timing, not polish. For creators making Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts (7–60s, vertical).
|
||
|
||
## When it activates
|
||
|
||
- "Make a Reels/TikTok/YouTube Shorts video" or "build a short-form video template."
|
||
- "Write a hook for a short" or "fix the first 3 seconds."
|
||
- "Edit for retention," "add pattern interrupts," or "pace cuts for a vertical video."
|
||
- "Make a video loop" or "set up 9:16 safe areas."
|
||
|
||
## Example prompts
|
||
|
||
- "Build a reusable 9:16 short-form template — one design, many topics."
|
||
- "Fix the drop-off in this Reel: tighten pacing and add pattern interrupts."
|
||
- "Write three hook options for a 30-second educational short."
|
||
|
||
## What's inside
|
||
|
||
- `SKILL.md` — the retention arc, hook grammar, and pacing rules.
|
||
- `references/retention-pacing.md` — deeper guidance on retention editing and pacing.
