Step 1
Write around the caption grid
Separate the hook, reveal, and closing prompt, then note where captions or reactions occupy the screen. Cut spoken phrases that merely duplicate visible text and keep essential names explicit.
A vertical-video creator often starts with a shot list and caption grid rather than a polished narration document. The opening phrase must survive the first cut, while later words must leave room for reactions, overlays, and the final on-screen prompt.
Before building every variation, put the hook and last line into Eleven AI as one compact audition. Compare the result against the storyboard at the pace you actually intend to edit; the catalog preview alone cannot answer whether those words fit that sequence.
Audition a short-video hookStep 1
Separate the hook, reveal, and closing prompt, then note where captions or reactions occupy the screen. Cut spoken phrases that merely duplicate visible text and keep essential names explicit.
Step 2
Generate the first and last lines together for each candidate. Play them over the planned opening and end frame to find out whether the wording remains understandable without rushing the visual sequence.
Step 3
After the chosen take enters the vertical edit, inspect every beat against captions and gestures. Rewrite the single crowded phrase, generate that section again, and preserve the message viewers still need to hear.

Those lines carry different editing pressure: the hook competes with the first visual, while the close often shares space with a prompt. One short test exposes both constraints before the middle is produced.
Return to that beat’s source line and decide which words are essential. A shorter rewrite can be generated and swapped into the cut without changing sections whose timing already works.
No platform-owned voice is presented as an Eleven AI catalog entry. Base the choice on public styles available in this workflow and on the generated audition you can review yourself.
Usage depends on the kind of style and the project. Consult the Voice Usage Policy before release, especially when a community entry imitates a person or fictional character; publication does not turn an imitation into an endorsement.
