How to get great results with ScreenDub
ℹ️ What ScreenDub Does (and Doesn’t)
- Creates voiceovers aligned to your input
- Not traditional dubbing — the voice is not lip‑synced
- Your script is improved automatically: grammar cleaned, flow polished
- Dead pauses are cut, so the output video can be slightly shorter
- Currently supports English input and output — you don’t need to be a native speaker.
📝 Preparation Tips
-
Outline your script
Keep it linear and logical. Define what you want to say in short, clear sections.
-
Sanity check with AI
Paste your script into ChatGPT to refine tone, grammar, and flow.
Prompt example:
“Improve this script for clarity and flow. Keep it concise and easy to speak aloud, one idea per sentence.”
-
Rehearse once
Read it to yourself before recording to catch awkward phrasing and get a natural rhythm.
🎤 Recording Tips
Clarity and structure matter more than having an expensive microphone. The AI aligns both the transcript and your speaking rhythm — the more structured your delivery, the better the voiceover.
1. 🎯 One Sentence = One Concept
- Golden rule: one idea per sentence.
- Split long sentences.
- Clearer sentences = stronger AI alignment.
Good: “Let’s go to the dashboard. There, you can find your account settings.”
Bad: “In the dashboard, which is where you’ll find things like your account settings and also maybe other preferences, we’ll now take a look.”
Note: content that triggers provider moderation (e.g., sensitive/unsafe topics) may be limited or altered by the LLM/TTS providers, which can affect results.
2. 🕰️ Pacing & Pauses
- Moderate, deliberate pace.
- Pause after each thought (1 breath).
- Use pauses as natural boundaries for the AI.
3. 🗣️ Diction & Consistency
- Enunciate all words, especially endings.
- Use the same terms consistently (“Task Overview” vs. “main screen”).
4. 📚 Structure Your Script for the AI
- Keep a clear step-by-step flow.
- Signal transitions (“Now let’s look at…”).
- Avoid tangents; stay focused.
✅ Summary: Core Habits
- One sentence = one concept
- Pause between thoughts
- Consistent terminology
- Moderate pace & clear flow
