AV script template — audio & visual planning
Align each visual with its narration in an editable two-column script, with optional source notes and planned seconds. Copy, print or export.
The starting rows are a fictional planning example. Replace them with your own visuals, exact narration and source notes. Work stays in this tab; download before leaving.
18 narration words · 7.7 estimated spoken seconds. Visual and source notes are excluded. Pauses are extra.

Time estimates help you plan narration; they do not measure recordings, generate a video or replace source review.

What to check

Examples and common questions
What is a two-column AV script?
An audio/visual script aligns what the audience sees with what they hear. This planner adds shot numbers, planned seconds and source-review notes beside the two core columns.
