Hook/Greetings/Draft
Hook/Greetings is for narrative hooks early in a video, plus dedicated greetings and goodbye shots.
Description
Hook
A narrative hook grabs the viewer's attention at a video's beginning (often as the first scene) so that they will continue watching. Some hooks are similar to preview, but have unique presentation and/or narration that places them in this category instead. This is not for moments with narrative importance that would be lost skipping, such as an event depicted earlier through a different character's perspective.
Examples of Hook:
- In medias res opens in the chronological middle of the plot, rather than at the beginning[1]
- Prologue or flash forward
- Compilation of different video clips that tease a narrative moment later in the video.
See the page on narrative hooks on Wikipedia.[2]
Greetings
For greetings at the start of the video before any information has been discussed, or which repeat information discussed right after the greeting.
Goodbyes
For goodbyes and concluding sentences at the end of the video. Do not include conclusions to the video's topic, only non-informational goodbyes should be included.
