✓ Sync the first visual transition to the 0:02 mark
✓ Use high-contrast color grading for a 'dark' aesthetic
✓ Include a text overlay that sets the POV (e.g., 'POV: You're in the 4th quarter')
✓ Use fast-cut transitions for the chorus
✗ Don't use the sound for slow, static talking-head videos
✗ Don't let the audio play for more than 15 seconds without a visual change
✗ Don't ignore the bass drop—that's the hook moment
