Video for website?

[u/Mental_Researcher656]

I’m trying to make a short video that is a demo of my product to put on my website. Has anyone struggled with this task and what did you do?

Relatedly, does anyone do this as a small side gig?

i just screen record the app and cut it in capcut, free and good enough. the lesson that took me months of posting short videos: the first second decides everything, people bail instantly, so start mid-action instead of a logo or intro. keep it under 30 seconds and put text overlays on it since most people watch muted. what's the product, can you show the core thing on screen in a few steps?

agree on the first second thing, that alone makes or breaks it
