The hook
No words in the first 3 seconds.
The idea: Satisfying visual demo of a kitchen tool forming perfect meatballs instantly.
41/100 · Weak hook
- Little or nothing is said in the first 3 seconds.
- No text on screen in the first frame: most people watch muted.
- The first cut comes at 1.8 s, which keeps the eye moving.
- The opening does not speak to the viewer or open a question.
- The pace after the hook is steady.
