Start with one useful decision
Make the next clip serve the song.
Whether you're testing a 15-second hook, making a lyric visualizer or developing a scene-driven music video, the work becomes clearer when each visual has a purpose. The kit helps you make that choice before you lose hours in the editor.
Write the video idea
Decide what the listener should understand or feel, then write a one-sentence visual story.
Map six important moments
Connect song sections, emotional jobs and images instead of assembling random scenes.
Organize the footage
List the shots, prompts, sources and permissions needed before a full editing session.
Review before you release
Check pacing, continuity, audio, export settings and important publishing details.
Preview the actual workbook
Useful pages you can put to work immediately.
This isn't another collection of prompts or an automatic video generator. It's a reusable planning and review system for people making the creative decisions themselves.
- Project brief — audience, goal and one-sentence story.
- Scene map — six song moments with their visual jobs.
- Shot planner — footage, source and permission records.
- Editing and export checks — review what works before publishing.
- Two worked examples — a short hook test and a longer story-first video.
The preview is from the actual files included in your ZIP.
One kit · Three formats
Choose the version that suits how you work.
- Fillable PDF: type answers, tick checkboxes and save your project (55 interactive fields).
- Editable PDF: modify existing text using a full PDF editor. It isn't a fill-in form.
- Fully editable Word workbook: change questions, tables and page structure in Word or compatible software. The cover is an embedded image.
The download also includes a READ ME FIRST with instructions. These are three formats of the same eight-page workbook—not three separate courses.
How it works
Start your next video plan in three steps.
Claim your free kit
Open the product listing and complete a C$0 Shopify checkout. This is a free digital resource, not a subscription.
Download and choose a format
Open the customer ZIP and use the fillable PDF or editable alternative that suits your workflow.
Plan one real song
Write the story, map the scenes and start a rough cut. Use the checklist to review what you made.
No CapCut Pro plan required for the workbook.
Questions before you start
Is this genuinely free?
Yes. The kit costs C$0, with no paid membership requirement. The free product checkout is used for digital delivery. Marketing email signup, if offered, is separate and optional.
Do I need CapCut?
No. The workbook works with suitable editing tools of your choice. Our free CapCut full-music-video tutorial is an optional companion.
Will the kit create a finished video for me?
No. It's a planning and quality-review workbook. You choose the music, assets and edit; it helps structure those decisions.
Do I need to download all three versions?
No. The ZIP contains all three, but one version is enough for a project. Start with the fillable PDF unless you need to change the worksheet itself.
Can I use it for videos I'm planning to publish?
Yes, as a planning tool. Check the rights to each asset, image and voice as well as the latest requirements of your publishing platform.
The next song deserves a clearer plan

Take the free scene map, choose one finished song and give each moment a reason to be there.
