How to give useful feedback about video pacing

Describe where the edit feels rushed or repetitive and which action needs more time.

Start with a clear direction

Point to the relevant scene and ask to hold the reveal longer or remove a repeated insert. Explain the information that viewers need time to see.

Put it into your edit

Open your edit and find the moment you want to change. Describe the new result in the revision chat. Select an editable element when the preview offers it, and include exact replacement wording for text changes.

Keep the next change focused

Name the moment, say what should change and describe what you want to keep. For a title, supply the replacement words. For pacing, identify the shot that needs more or less time. Play the surrounding sequence after the revision to hear and see how the change fits.
