Pro Tips
State the Value Proposition
Your hook should immediately tell the viewer what they will gain from watching your video (e.g., "I'm going to show you how to...").
Create a "Curiosity Gap"
Make a bold statement or ask a provocative question that makes the viewer need to know the answer, which you promise to provide in the video.
Speak to a Specific Audience
Calling out your target audience directly (e.g., "If you're a beginner photographer...") makes them feel like the content is made just for them.
Match Your Hook to Your Title
Ensure the promise you make in your hook aligns with the promise you made in your video title to build trust and meet viewer expectations.
