Talking Head
Your face, your hook, your voice — nothing else in the frame
Pure creator-on-camera. You address the viewer, deliver a hook, and carry the whole video with your delivery. No screen-rec dependency. Lives or dies by the first 2 seconds.
- Creators with an existing audience that trusts their voice
- Regret-reveal and "someone showed me" hook types
- Story-driven accounts (founder journey, student building apps)
- 0–2s: Hook. Face in frame, bold claim or curiosity gap. Text-on-screen reinforces the line.
- 2–10s: Setup. Who you are, why this matters to the viewer.
- 10–35s: The reveal. Brief B-roll of the Rork screen cut over your voice.
- 35–50s: The result. A screenshot, number, or shipped App Store listing.
- 50–60s: Closing line + soft CTA (link in bio, comment for link).
- Record the hook 5–10 times. Pick the take with the most energy.
- Eye contact with the lens, not the screen.
- One idea per video. Don't stack features + pricing + story.
- Keep B-roll to a supporting role — your face is the format.
