Retakes. Say a line badly, stop, and say it again. Studio keeps the take you meant, which is almost always the last one, and drops the rest.

Run-ups and false starts. The half sentence before you found the thought.

Filler. The ums, and the production chatter that is obviously not part of the video.

Tangents. Whole sentences that match nothing in your script, when you asked for a cut that follows it.

Dead air. The pause where you were reading the next line, trimmed to the pace you pick.

Knowing the script could be used to force a video to match it word for word. Studio does not start there, because the take where you went slightly off script is often the best thing in the video.

Creator first is the default stance: your performance is the truth and the script is the guide. Studio drops the fluffs, the run-ups and the production chatter, keeps what you actually said, and hands you back a script as recorded so your written version can catch up with the good version.

Script first is there when the running time matters more than the ad libs. The cut follows the written script closely, in whole sentences.

You can leave instructions in the recording itself, the way a presenter drops notes for a human editor. Say Editor, and then what you want.

Editor, cut that throws away the sentence you just fluffed. Editor, section starts a new part of the video and anchors a card. Editor, note leaves a message that shows up in the edit. Editor, that is a wrap ends the video there. The cues are cut out of the finished video, and the teleprompter in the TubeSpanner script editor keeps them in front of you while you read.
