3 mistakes to avoid when editing video (learnt from my YouTube)
It is one year I have been active on YouTube interviewing founders.
With each episode, I do some f**k up. But never mind.
Even when you are about to do something in the future, learn from my mistakes. 😀
Those mistakes in my interviews:
🙊 The spoken word is on mono instead of stereo.
🙉 Too loud background audio effects.
🙈 Too many visual effects.
You can also acquire it for your product promo video e.g. for the launch.
Additional things to product video (specifically when you want to promote product):
📦 Show the product in use in the video.
👩 Show face to create a human connection (aligning with persona).
✅ Along with that explain benefits/positive results for the user.
You can find me on YouTube if you would like to learn more about some good founders' tips. 👇 (see comment)

BTW, what tool do you use for edits? I am currently using DeScript.
@rohanrecommends Thank you! :) Do you mean for editing? I am fully in CapCut, for creating thumbnails Photopea + Figma. That's probably all what I use for editing :)
You are right. Sound is even more important than video quality. A video with good audio and a low resolution is more likely to be watched than a video with top image quality but poor audio.
Some other tips that might help:
📹 Use more than one angle for your shots
💡 Watch a tutorial on proper lighting (key light, fill light, back light)
✂️ Really cut out all uhm's and ehm's and pauses
As a creator, you are fighting for every millisecond of the viewer's attention span.
@federico_zuluaga_knorr All of those are pretty valid. Now, my space doesn't offer me to have more cameras (angles) but I would go for this, or at least, when I have an interview, there is a guest to "have those more shots".
