Sensei recipe

Tutorial series episode

One episode of a tutorial series that looks like a set. Each episode teaches a single feature, opens with a quick recap, and ends by teasing the next one, with the same title card, narrator, music and colours every time. Our example is an episode of Pixel Dojo's Sensei series.

What Sensei does

  1. The screen tutorial method on one feature, 60 to 120 seconds
  2. A cold-open hook, a numbered title card and a one-line recap
  3. The series narrator, music and colours, the same every episode
  4. Ends on Up next with the next episode's title

The brief Sensei follows

Make episode [This episode's number and title] of [The series name], teaching [The one feature this episode teaches] only. Call the tutorial maker with action start: series = [The series name], episode_number and episode_title from [This episode's number and title], previous_episode = [Last episode's title, if any], next_episode = [Next episode's title, if any], topic = [The one feature this episode teaches], the product name, start_url = [The link the episode starts on] (you drive the browser through the steps yourself), steps = [What the viewer does, one line per step] in order, result_url = [The finished result] if given, login_email / login_password only from a demo login in [A demo login for your product, if the flow needs one]. Only if the user uploaded [Or upload one screenshot per step instead] instead, pass those as screens. The series keeps its narrator, music and colours from episode 1 automatically; only pass a voice for episode 1. Teach nothing outside [The one feature this episode teaches]. Keep calling status until it is ready, then deliver the video and the SRT.
