Wordless media in your script (beta)

Wordless media—sections of your script that don't contain speech—will appear as waveforms in your script. You can edit these sections just like you would a text document. You can correct, copy-paste, delete, or ignore wordless media from the script, and the underlying video or audio will also be deleted. This feature is off by default. 

Show or hide wordless media in a single project

If you would like to show or hide wordless media in a single project, you can do so in the top menubar of a project by selecting the project's name and then choosing Project settings.

 

In your project settings window, look for Show wordless media in script. You can then toggle this option on or off for the chosen project.

Show or hide wordless media in all future projects

Descript understands that some users like having wordless media in their script, and some do not. If you want to show or hide wordless media across all new projects, you can enable it in your account settings. To do this, while on the drive view, at the top right, click your profile picture and choose Settings

 

If you want to access your account settings from a project, click the menu in the top left and then choose Settings

 

In your account settings, under the General tab, you will find an option to Show wordless media in script. Toggling this on or off will affect any newly created projects in Descript.
