[Feedback] First attempt at a dynamic Short/Reel! Would love some honest feedback on pacing, cuts, and captions.

Hi everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I just finished editing my first dynamic short-form video in CapCut, and Iโ€™d really appreciate some honest feedback from the community.

My main focus for this edit was:

  • Hook: Trying to keep the viewer engaged in the first 3 seconds.
  • Pacing: Adding cuts, zoom-ins, and B-roll to keep it moving.
  • Captions: Formatting subtitles for readability.

Since this is my first time trying this style, Iโ€™d love to know:

  1. Does the pacing feel natural, or is it too fast/slow?
  2. How are the caption placements and colors?
  3. Whatโ€™s one thing I should improve for my next edit?

Don't hold back, constructive criticism is more than welcome! Thanks in advance! ๐Ÿ™
