The hook
“(sizzling) (sizzling)”
The idea: process demonstration: showing how a kitchen gadget simplifies making multiple patties at once
51/100 · Decent 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 2.0 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.

Why it works
- The hook lands in the first 2 seconds with a spoken line, before a viewer can scroll away.
- 5 cuts in 9 seconds (a new shot about every 1.52 s) keep the picture changing.
- Speech runs at about 0.42 words a second, a slow pace for a short reel.
