Hey Bonnie,
Kindly address some of my concerns regarding the project so that i can deliver exactly what you are looking for:
- I noticed your focus on retention and storytelling. Do you currently track audience retention on your long-form videos via YouTube Analytics? If so, are there any drop-off points you’ve identified that you'd like me to creatively counter?
- Would you prefer your long-form videos to follow a more structured narrative (e.g. problem > solution > CTA), or a natural flow that adapts to the personality and content style of the speaker?
- What’s your top goal for these long-form videos: building community loyalty, driving signups/sales, or maximizing YouTube discoverability?
- Do you see your channel evolving toward a certain content style — like deep-dive storytelling, interview-based breakdowns, or personal narratives? Knowing this can help me shape the edit accordingly.
- What are the 2–3 YouTube channels you admire most in terms of their editing and visual pacing? This will help me mirror that energy and elevate your content accordingly.
Thank You! -
What does your current raw footage setup look like single-take, multi-cam, or recorded livestreams?
Are you currently using intros, outros, or segment bumpers as part of your visual identity?
Do you prefer text-based captions burned in or platform-generated subtitle files?
Is your content more educational, personal brand storytelling, or a mix of both?
What’s your ideal turnaround time per edit? Are you looking for weekly content or on a per-project basis?
