This genre is carried by the voice and the pauses. Tsuyu lets you audition narrators against your actual script, control how the captions land, and pair the narration with a background that supports the mood instead of fighting it.
How it works
- Write for the ear. Short sentences, concrete details and a held-back reveal. Read it aloud and trim whatever you stumble over.
- Audition voices on your script. A voice that sounds fine on a sample can feel wrong across a whole story. Test with your own first paragraph.
- Choose a background that stays out of the way. Dark, slow or abstract footage keeps attention on the story.
- Render and check the pacing. Watch for places where the captions or the voice feel rushed, adjust the script, and render again.
An opening line to start from
"The call came in at 2:14 a.m. The caller didn't speak. They just breathed, and then she heard the front door open behind them."
Tips
- Hold the reveal until late. Early payoffs end the viewing.
- For true crime, stick to public, sourced facts and be careful with names and accusations about real people.
- Leave silence in the script. Punctuation controls where the narrator pauses.
Questions
- Can I use real cases?
- Be careful. Use only well-sourced public information and avoid presenting speculation about real people as fact.
- Do the voices sound natural?
- They are synthetic voices. Listen to a few against your own script and keep the one that fits.
- Can I add music?
- Yes. You can choose background music, and on higher plans upload your own.
