Ad Script Generator FAQs
Ad script generator basics explained
30 seconds is not a lot of time, so you'll need to deliver the required information in a compelling way. Once you've got a concept, it's time to start writing. The most useful format for a 30-second ad script would be what's called an AV script (audio/visual script). Using StudioBinder's AV script template, you can track the word count and runtime to ensure that you won't exceed the 30-second time limit.
Currently, the average salary for an ad script writer is anywhere between $50,000 and $100,000. This depends on your experience, portfolio, the profile of your clients, and whether this is a local, regional, or national campaign.
Yes, even with the introduction of AI, script writers are still needed in every category and medium. Radio, TV, Film, Commercials — consider how much content is being produced every year in just these mediums and you'll understand just how many opportunities there are.
Video ads can be quite different but there are basic questions you can answer to help write any video ad script.
- What are you selling? Familiarize yourself with the product so that you can come up with interesting ways to frame the ad.
- Who is your audience? Will this be an online ad, will it air on TV, etc.? Knowing your target demographic will inform the content and shape of your ad.
Generating script to video is much easier these days with the proliferation of AI image/video generators. All you need to do is prompt the AI with details and parameters of what the video should look like. Then copy/paste the script in and that's it. You may have to refine with more specific language to get exactly what you're after.
If you're writing a screenplay, the average 1-minute script should be about one page. If you're using an AV script template like StudioBinder's, the word count and runtime can be auto-calculated to ensure that you hit your goal.
A script for a 30-second video could be anywhere between a half page to a single page, depending on how much dialogue and/or action is included. Dialogue runs faster than action, typically, but you can use StudioBinder's AV script software to time out your script down to the second.
