How the Video Idea + Title + Thumbnail Text Generator works
Select your filters (mode, edition, platform style, tone, length) and add niche tags like “item sorter” or “no facecam”. Hit Generate to get 5 ready-to-shoot ideas. Each card includes a strong hook, a shot-by-shot outline with timestamps, a title that fits mobile, and tags for upload. Use the Copy buttons to move title, tags, or outline straight into your editor, then Regenerate to explore more angles.
Example: Max the Minecraft Player
Max picks Tutorial, Modded Bedrock, and TikTok/Reel with no facecam. The tool returns “Item Sorter: Complete Guide for Modded Bedrock” with a 5-step outline (0:00 hook → 0:40 CTA). He copies the title, exports the outline, and schedules Part 2 for tomorrow.

Hooks That Make Teens Stop Scrolling
Your first second decides the click. Pick a hook pattern that matches the idea and the platform. Use challenge hooks for drama and tutorial hooks for clarity. Mix them with a single promise and keep the language simple.
| Hook Pattern | Use When | Template | Best Platform |
|---|---|---|---|
| We all do this | Relatable mistakes | “We all started here… and it breaks every time.” | Shorts/TikTok |
| First night | Early-game pain | “First night without a chest? Fix it in 30s.” | Shorts/TikTok |
| Challenge claim | High stakes | “Can I sort 5k items with zero hoppers?” | YouTube |
| Before → After | Visual payoff | “Messy storage → clean auto sorter.” | All |
| Speed promise | Time-saving tips | “Do this in under 60 seconds.” | Shorts |
| Version/news | Updates | “Bedrock 1.21 sorter rules that changed.” | YouTube |
| Number proof | Credibility | “5-step sorter that never jams.” | YouTube |
Pro Idea
Draft two hooks for the same idea (challenge vs. tutorial). Generate 5 ideas, then pair each with both hooks to A/B test titles and intros.
Shot List Blueprint For Viral Pace
Keep the outline lightweight. Your viewer should understand the plan at a glance and see a payoff before the 25s mark. Use this pacing table to script faster without losing clarity.
| Timestamp | Shorts/TikTok Action | YouTube Mid-Length Action | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0:00 | Text hook on screen | Voice hook + b-roll | Stops scroll immediately |
| 0:03 | One-sentence setup | Problem + promise | Sets rules fast |
| 0:10 | Main action demo | Step 1–2 walkthrough | Delivers value early |
| 0:20 | Result preview | Step 3–4 + fix common issue | Proof builds trust |
| 0:35 | Quick tip + CTA | Result + next video path | Session chain |
| 0:45–1:10 | — | Bonus tips / pitfalls | Retention bump |
Common Mistake
Don’t stack two ideas in one video (e.g., sorter + smelter). One problem, one payoff, one CTA.
Thumbnail Text That Instantly Sells The Click
Your card should be readable on a phone at arm’s length. Use 1–3 words, huge font, and a single object. The title does the explaining; the thumbnail sells the emotion.
| Goal | Do | Avoid | Example Text |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clarity | Big 1–3 words | Paragraphs | “AUTO SORTER” |
| Emotion | One reaction face/block | Busy collages | Chest overflow visual |
| Contrast | Dark bg, bright text | Low contrast | Neon outline |
| Proof | Before/After split | Unclear arrows | Messy vs. clean chest |
| Consistency | Series color coding | Random styles | Green for tutorials |
