Scroll-stopping content isn't luck, it's design 🎥
3 hooks Tarik reckons you need to know when filming + editing short, sharp social content:
1️⃣ Motion into frame - movement interrupts the scroll before anything else. Big or small, don't start your video with a still image
2️⃣ Sound Nostalgia - awesome track? Pop the drop/ chours up front; don't make your audience wait for their favourite bit!
3️⃣ Suspense-building action - something falling off the bench, tipping over, about to spill. People wait to see what happens
Small edits, big difference to watch time 📈
