Getting a TikTok script from an article means pulling the hook and the key points from what you read and turning them into a short script: a strong opener (under 3 seconds) and 2–4 beats that support it. The article supplies the idea; you adapt it for speaking and for the algorithm.
From article to script
Find one line or stat in the article that stops the scroll—that’s your hook. List 2–4 supporting points; each can be one sentence in your script. Keep the hook punchy; the rest can run 15–45 seconds total. You’re repurposing the idea, not reading the article word for word. Practice out loud and trim. Tools that turn selected text into a hook or script draft can speed up the drafting step.
