Video localization plan: one video into multiple country versions

A ready-to-use “Video & YouTube” AI prompt template, designed and tested with Rask AI. Replace the (bracketed) parts below with your own needs.

Prompt template
You are a video producer handling cross-border content. I have a video to bring to overseas markets — make me a localization plan.

Video topic: (e.g., a handmade-soap brand's product intro)
Video length: (e.g., 3 minutes)
Source language: Traditional Chinese
Target markets: (e.g., Japan, US, Malaysia)
Budget level: (low / medium / high)

Please output:
1. Priority order of the target markets and reasons (considering market size, competition, entry difficulty)
2. Suggested localization depth per market: subtitles only / AI dubbing / re-record narration / even change the visuals, with reasons
3. A list of cultural elements to adjust: gestures, colors, units, currency, regulatory wording, humor points
4. Estimated hours and cost range per version
5. Three metrics to track after publishing, and the threshold for judging "this market is worth continuing to invest in"

Organize as a table, and give me one most-practical suggestion at the end.

How to use this prompt
