video audits

Why your YouTube video feels “off”, and how to fix it in your next upload.A 45-minute video audit for talking-head educators who want stronger hooks, tighter pacing and higher perceived quality.The problem
You can have a strong idea and still lose viewers.
The hook drags.
The pacing drifts.
The audio sounds slightly thin.
The structure feels repetitive.
The transitions aren’t clear.
Individually, these seem small. Together, they make the video feel amateur.The hard part is you can’t see it while you’re inside it.
That’s what this audit solves.
What this is
A 45-minute private video breakdown of one of your talking-head education videos.
I analyse: Your hook and first 60 seconds
Structure and storytelling flow
Pacing and micro-editing
Transitions and clarity
Audio and perceived professionalism
On-camera presence
Visual clarity and framing
You’ll see exactly where attention drops and why.And more importantly, what to change.What you’ll walk away with
A 45-minute video audit showing exactly where your retention and perceived quality drop, and what to change in your next upload.

FAQ

Upload

You’ll receive a private WeTransfer link to upload your files.
Please organise your upload into clear folders:
• Footage (separate by filming dates if applicable)
• Assets (intros, outros, lower thirds, logos, etc.)
• Notes

Along with your files, include:
• Desired length
• Objective (what the video should achieve or communicate)
• Footage notes (anything to remove or definitely keep)
• Music preferences (if any)

Clear direction leads to a stronger final result.

Edit

I’ll begin editing once all assets and notes are received.
Turnaround time depends on the agreed scope. You’ll be notified when your first draft is ready.

Review

Your draft will be delivered via a secure Frame.io link.

Please leave timestamped comments directly on the video for any requested changes.

Depending on your project scope, we’ll complete 1–2 revision rounds before final approval.

Delivery

Once approved, the final video will be delivered as a high-quality .mp4 or .mov file via secure link.

Your video includes either one or two revisions. Additional revision rounds are available at US$150 per round.

I work Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm AEST.

After submitting the form, I’ll send you a Calendly link to book your slot and confirm payment.

Due to the custom nature of video editing, refunds are not available after final delivery.
