Good retention editing is not random effects. It is the rhythm of promise, proof, movement, and payoff.

CompressionRemove repeated ideas and slow transitions.
Pattern InterruptsUse zooms, captions, b-roll, and sound only when attention needs support.
PayoffMake the viewer feel the video delivered on the title.
