Quick Summary of the 7 mistakes, by GPT-4:

1 Poor Opening Hooks: Not spending enough time on the first 30 seconds of the video. This is crucial as it's the part most viewers will see, determining if they'll keep watching. The suggestion is to "frontload" editing efforts to make the opening as engaging as possible.

2 Overediting: Adding too many edits or effects can overwhelm the audience rather than enhance the viewing experience. The advice is to keep editing simple and only as intensive as necessary to support the content, not overshadow it.

3 Awkward Pauses in Cuts: Failure to properly trim and align cuts can make the video feel disjointed and awkward. Techniques like J-cuts and L-cuts are recommended to make transitions smoother and more natural.

4 Poor Sound Design: Using repetitive or inappropriate sound effects can distract and annoy viewers. Varying sound effects and matching them appropriately to the visual content is suggested to maintain viewer engagement.

5 Inappropriate Music Choices: The background music should match the tone and pace of the video. Incorrect music choices can disconnect the viewer from the content, making the video feel out of sync.

6 Irrelevant Visuals: Including b-roll or graphics that do not relate to the spoken content can confuse viewers. Visuals should always complement and reinforce the topic being discussed.

7 Ineffective Text and Graphics: Text that is hard to read or graphics that clutter the video can detract from the message. Clear, readable text and purposeful graphics are essential to communicate effectively with the audience.

I'm only clicking because the first timeline is literally my workflow.
