Imagine Santa trying to juggle making toys, checking lists, and delivering gifts while also posting videos on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Sounds crazy, right?
That’s like asking him to do the impossible! But it’s exactly what a lot of content creators do every day. They spend so much time manually posting content across multiple platforms. It’s no wonder it turns into a chore, rather than a fun part of their strategy.
If Santa got into the video scheduling game, he’d probably use something like vubli.ai.
Why, you ask?
Because it’s a game-changer.
You just upload your video once and schedule it to post automatically on all platforms. It’s like setting it and forgetting it! This means more time for Santa to focus on what he does best—delivering presents.

Posting becomes a chore, not a strategy.
That line hits home for a lot of us, right? The whole idea is to make posting a part of your strategy, not something you dread. With Voli.AI, you can make that happen.

Here’s the scoop: the first three seconds of your video are crucial. If they’re not visually engaging, folks will just keep scrolling. All that hard work, gone in a blink. So what’s the fix? It’s simpler than you might think.
Start with a 5 Mask cut. Sounds fancy, but it’s just a technique to make your content pop. Pair it with dynamic visuals to create movement and excitement. Trust me, it’ll hook your audience right away.

These tricks aren’t just for show. They’re designed to keep people watching longer. And when people watch longer, your views go up. It’s a win-win.
Think about it. You’re scrolling through your feed, and something flashy catches your eye. You’re curious, right? That’s exactly what you want your audience to feel about your videos.
“The first three seconds are your golden window. Nail it, and you’ve got them hooked.”
Don’t just take my word for it. Try these tips in your next edit and watch your views climb. It’s all about creating content that’s not just seen, but remembered.
Keep experimenting, keep creating, and keep your audience coming back for more. And hey, if you found this helpful, stick around. More editing tips are on the way.
Let’s talk about something that’s been bugging me for a while—captions.
You know, those little lines of text that pop up at the bottom of your short videos? They’re more important than you might think.
But here’s the kicker: most people are doing them all wrong, and it’s costing views left and right. If you’ve got boring or tiny captions, it’s like a fast pass for viewers to scroll away.
So, what’s the fix?
Well, I’ve been playing around with captions for over five years—both for myself and others—and I’ve learned a thing or two. Let’s break it down.
- Start with a bang: Your first caption needs to match the punch of your hook. Big, bold, and easy to read.
- Use color: Highlight key words or phrases. You want to guide the viewer’s attention, right? Or, try just using one word at a time for emphasis.
- Perfect timing: Sync those captions with your speech. It keeps everything flowing naturally.
- Keep it snappy: Short and punchy captions are the way to go. They’re easier to read and keep viewers engaged.
- Font choices matter: Opt for clean and bold fonts like Mont, Impact, or Open Sans. And always make sure they’re big enough for mobile viewing.
And here’s a little extra nugget of wisdom: Always keep your captions big enough to be read on a mobile screen. It’s a simple change that makes a world of difference.
Try these tweaks next time you’re adding captions to your video.

Ever think your daily life is too boring to share? You’re not alone. But here’s the thing—those everyday stories are pure content gold. Seriously, your life’s not as dull as you may think. People connect with real-life stories because they see themselves in them. And that’s powerful.

You know, like that lesson you learned while waiting at the coffee shop, or a quick fail that taught you something unexpected.

Seeing yourself on video can feel like a shock, right? It’s like, Who is that person? If youre nodding along, Ive got something that might help. Loads of people cringe when they see their face or hear their voice on camera. Youre definitely not alone in this. Its fascinating how common it is, more than you might think.
Heres something to chew on. The image you have in your mind isnt the same as what the camera shows. Think about it. When do you usually see yourself? In the mirror, right? But the mirror gives you a flipped version of yourself. Its not the real deal. On the other hand, a camera shows you how you really look. So when you see that video, your brain’s likely saying, Nope, not me. But guess what? It probably is.
The same thing happens with your voice. Normally, when you speak, youre hearing yourself both through your head and through the air. But on a video, its just the airwaves. So, it feels off, and your brain rejects it, going, Whoa, thats not my voice.
So, how do you get over this weird disconnect? Heres a simple idea:
- Record yourself on video.
- Watch and listen to it repeatedly.
- Do this until your brain starts to accept it.
It’s all about training your subconscious to get comfy with your real look and sound. Easier said than done but give it a shot.
The trouble is that the picture in your mind is just not matching with what you’re seeing on the video.
Thats the thing right there. Its a mismatch between what you think and what is real. But over time, as you keep watching and hearing yourself, it starts to sync up.
So, give it a try. Record, play, repeat. Let us know in the comments how it feels after a few tries. Maybe itll grow on you.

In my last video, I touched on how crucial your video hook is. Seriously, it’s the make-or-break part of your video. If people aren’t sticking around to watch, your hook might be the culprit.

Imagine boosting your video engagement just by tweaking one little thing. Sounds intriguing, right? Well, there’s a trick to it, and it could skyrocket your views. All you need is the right strategy to keep your audience hooked from start to finish. Let’s talk about how you can do it.
Did you know there’s some pretty cool psychology behind this? Back in the 1920s, a Lithuanian Soviet psychologist named Bluma Zeigarnik noticed something interesting. Her students paid more attention to lessons that were interrupted halfway. This led to what’s known as the Zeigarnik effect. It’s all about creating open loops that keep people curious.
Think about your favorite TV shows. They start with a bang, creating open loops that leave you wanting more. Throughout an episode, they sprinkle in more open loops, some resolved, others left hanging. And then, bamright before the credits roll, they hit you with a cliffhanger. You end up glued to the screen, eager for the next episode.
So how can you use this in your videos? It’s pretty simple. Start with an intriguing hook that opens a loop. Keep your audience guessing until the very end. And just when they think they’re about to get all the answers, open a new loop that makes them want to watch your next video.
Heres a quick rundown on creating open loops:
- Start with a compelling question or statement.
- Drop hints or teasers throughout your video.
- Resolve some loops but leave others hanging.
- End with a new question or teaser to pique interest in your next video.
To make things even more interesting, I’ll be sharing a neat video structure in part two that works wonders with the Zeigarnik effect. It’s designed to keep your audience engaged and coming back for more.
And just for fun, see if you can count how many open loops Ive created here. Spoiler alert: there’s more than you think!
