Add delivery reminders to your teleprompter script

How the tool works

Before recording, attach a short reminder to a script paragraph: pause, smile, look at the camera, or use your own wording. There are 20 searchable suggestions, custom reminders with emojis, and a preview with independent text and background colors, opacity, size, and icon choices.

The notes scroll with the teleprompter and can appear during editor narration. They stay separate from spoken text: they do not become video overlays, captions, or generated speech. If a text change removes or makes their paragraph ambiguous, the editor asks you to review the attachment before saving.

Build it step by step

Open the script editor and its presentation-notes sheet. Choose a real paragraph as the anchor before writing or styling the reminder.

• Add one reminder for a specific delivery choice, such as a brief pause or looking at the camera.
• Choose from the suggestions or write your own short instruction with an emoji if helpful.
• Adjust text, background, opacity, size, and icon until the preview is easy to recognize.
• Save the script and notes together, then rehearse the passage at the intended scrolling mode.
• After rewriting the script, review any note whose paragraph was deleted or became ambiguous.

An example to adapt

Illustrative exercise: a tutorial introduces a common mistake and then reveals its correction. Attach a pause reminder before the correction so the transition has room to land.

Add an eye-contact reminder before the closing sentence. Keep it short enough to recognize without reading another full sentence, and do not add a cue to every paragraph merely because the option is available.

Check before finishing

A reminder is separate from private general notes, spoken text, and post-production text overlays. Use a video text tool if the audience needs to see the instruction. Deleting or replacing a paragraph can require reassigning a note; review that association before saving a rewritten script.

The timeline editor requires Starter or above. Check the app for current feature access and purchase options before planning your edit.
