I'm the one who said to hire a scriptwriter. A good scriptwriter is more
often a good consultant that helps his or her clients to think more
expansively about the client's products or services. Why would you believe
that writing a good script, as you seem to be suggesting to the OP, is any
easier than mastering the technology necessary to produce appealing visual
images and sound?
