 Start With the Hook (First 1–2 Seconds)
Shoot or cut straight into action — no intros, logos, or slow pans.

Use fast movement, a bold statement on-screen, or a trending sound to stop the scroll.

In Edits: trim so your first frame is the most interesting shot, then layer large, bold text over it.

 Cut Faster Than You Think
IG retention data shows most Reels lose viewers after 3–5 seconds if nothing changes visually.

In Edits:

Use split tool to keep shots under 1.5–2 seconds each.

Alternate camera angles or zoom crops to create motion.

 Add Micro-Movement (Keyframes / Zooms)
Even static clips should feel alive.

In Edits:

Use scale keyframes to do gentle 5–10% zooms.

Pan slightly left/right between keyframes for energy.

 Sync Edits to the Beat
If you’re using music, cut your clips on the beat for a smoother, more satisfying flow.

In Edits:

Drop your track first.

Use the waveform view to cut exactly on beat spikes.

 Keep Text Short &amp; Punchy
People read slow, so 4–6 words max per text overlay.

In Edits:

Use large, high-contrast fonts.

Place text in top third or center so it’s clear even with IG UI buttons.

 Hide Transitions in Motion
Mask cuts with whip pans, object wipes, or movement to make them seamless.

In Edits:

Use motion match transitions or overlay an effect so the cut feels intentional.

 End on a Loop
IG favors Reels that loop without viewers noticing — it increases watch time.

In Edits:

Make your ending match your starting frame visually, so when it restarts it feels continuous.

Keep the total length 7–12 seconds for higher repeat views.

 Use Edits’ Insights
After posting, check skip rate in the Insights tab.

If most drop-offs happen before 3 seconds, your hook needs fixing.

If drop-off is mid-video, your pacing is too slow.

If you want, I can also make you a preset Edits project template with all these elements already built in so you just drop your footage and go — it’ll cut your editing time in half and keep retention high.</p>";s:4:"tags";N;s:5:"state";s:1:"3";s:10:"visibility";s:1:"1";s:8:"priority";N;s:10:"created_on";s:19:"2025-08-09 02:39:46";s:13:"created_by_id";s:1:"4";s:15:"created_by_name";s:17:"ADMIN !!
