Understanding topics, scripts and scenes

Getting started · 1 min read

What each term means in the workflow, and how they relate to each other.

These three terms show up throughout the workflow and are easy to mix up:

  • Topic — a specific angle generated from your brief (for example, "the Sunday-night scramble before a launch"). A brief can produce several topics.
  • Script — the scene-by-scene breakdown written for one topic. This is what a creator would actually perform.
  • Scene — one beat within a script (a single shot or moment), tied to a specific template slot when it renders.

One brief can produce many topics; one topic produces one script; one script is made of several scenes.
