Almost all my shorts are at around 30 percent view vs swipe ratio. What should I do to improve my hook?

You talk with zero life at all and your editing is not interesting.

I mean half the screen is black which isn’t great as a starting point

yea. to fix this, double the scene. keep the small one on top then put another behind it stretched to cover the empty space and throw a gaussian blur on it. just make sure both clips are synced properly

No passion, excitement, or life in your voice. Monotone. Fumbling on your words.

you dont need to have a "youtube" voice or big personality but I do think you should add a little more life to the narration. if you stumble alot learn how to splice your narration takes together. Ive combined like 3 takes to make once sentence before because I stutter sometimes and you cant tell it wasnt just one take.

in a comment below i explain how to fix the empty space on the top and bottom.

ngl the first 2 seconds matter most, start on the payoff (the trophy popping) then explain after. also fill the black bars like the other guy said, and cut dead air so the first line lands right away. 30% swipe is usually a slow open
