Pacing benchmarks
Conversational delivery runs ~130 words per minute, standard YouTube pace ~150, energetic Shorts pace ~170. A 60-second short is 140–160 words; a 10-minute video is 1,400–1,600 — knowing this turns scripting into arithmetic.
Write short, cut shorter
Retention graphs punish every sentence that doesn't earn its place. Script to 90% of your target time — you'll always add breaths, b-roll beats and emphasis in delivery.
