The good news is this is the most efficient way to improve your videos. The bad news is that it’s also the most painful. But we know you can push through it. In this episode Julia covers exactly how to rewatch your own videos and evaluate where you are and what you want to change to fit your channel vision.

Main Topic: Use This Method to Rapidly Improve Your Videos

Here is a quick recap to reference: First, watch as a viewer. No detailed notes but note down when your attention drifts. Second, watch as an objective observer. Take note of everything in neutral terms. Third, evaluate the list below and rank yourself 1-5 (most to least). Neither extreme is necessarily good or bad; it all depends on your channel vision.

Here is that list:
1. Eye contact with the camera
2. Inflection
3. Pacing
4. Filler words
5. Energy
6. Non-verbals
7. How long did it take to make a point? Did you say what you meant to?
8. Hooks? Are they intriguing? Are you delivering them well?
9. Confidence
10. Comfort
