Which item is not typically considered part of a VOSOT script's content?

• A. Teleprompter
• B. Video
• C. Track
• D. Sound Bite

Answer: (D)

In a VOSOT script, you’re outlining what the audience will hear and see in the package. The script shows the voiceover lines (to be read on a teleprompter), the video that will accompany those lines, and the track—essentially the background audio or natural sound that sits under the narration. The teleprompter cue is included because the VO is read from it, the video cue is the footage viewers will watch, and the track cue tells producers what audio bed or nat sound to play underneath.

A sound bite, while a common element in many broadcasts, isn’t typically listed as part of the VOSOT script’s content. It’s a short clip from an interview used within the package, but it’s treated as a separate asset rather than a line written into the VO/script itself. That’s why it’s not considered part of the script’s core content in this context.

So the items that fit are the teleprompter (for delivering the VO), the video (the visuals shown), and the track (the audio bed or nat sound). The sound bite is the element that’s generally handled as a separate piece rather than part of the script’s content.
