THE 5-MINUTE LONGFORM FIX TO SKYROCKET YOUR VIDEOS (MrBeast Style)
đŠMost creators fail in the first 60 seconds. Hereâs how to fix thatâstep by step. (Apply this to every long-form [and shortform] video) 1ď¸âŁKnow the Title & Thumbnail FIRST Before scripting or filming, ask: âWhat is the viewer expecting when they click?â The opening shot must match the promise of the title/thumbnailâor people click off. 2ď¸âŁFrontload the First 60 Seconds Hook immediately. Use high-quality visuals, suspense, or an unexpected moment. Treat this like the âtrailerâ of your videoâwhatâs the payoff and why should they care? 3ď¸âŁBuild Rapid Progression (1â3 Minutes) Cover more ground quickly. Donât get stuck in the weedsâshow the story moving fast so viewers feel like theyâre getting value or excitement non-stop. 4ď¸âŁRe-Engage Around the 3-Minute Mark Drop a âwowâ moment or a twist. This could be a surprising upgrade, a crazy development, or a visual spectacle. 5ď¸âŁNever Signal the End Too Early Even the ending needs tension. No wind-downsâend abruptly after a satisfying payoff to preserve retention. đIf you only apply this one framework to your content, youâll already be ahead of 90% of creators.
