Neoliberalism: The Self-Improvement Lie

Helllooo <3 Here is my newest video as an early release for you. I am extremely grateful for your support and really hope you like the video. I would love to hear your thoughts (please be super honest!) and if you gave me some feedback for it, as you are the first ones to see it. Maybe I'll even incorporate your feedback into the version that I'll upload to YouTube in a couple of days. I really hope you enjoy the video! <3 Hope to hear from you soon!

P.S.: Also I think I still need to work on the thumbnail (but I didn't want to keep you waiting any longer), so if you have any ideas for it let me know!

Thanks again so much Adam!!! You were totally right! Noted about the fast cuts for the intro, I'll try toning that down in the next video but for this video I think I will leave it as I have been wanting to experiment with faster paced intros. But good to know that you thought it was too fast. As for the Money Magnet bit, I ended up removing the whispered bit but my friend said it didn't make sense without it anymore, so I'm leaving that in. I did zoom into the TV, thanks for telling me about it, you were completely right, it did look too small. And as for the bit at 8:25: you're totally right it looked inconsistent, so I added a zoom, so there would be at least camera movement so it would look more consistent with the other movement of the hand, because the still image did seem out of place. Thanks for pointing it out! Super super helpful!!! Aaaand for the highlighting instead of underlining, you're probably quite right about that too I've actually received a few complaints about that in the comments under my videos haha my problem with highlighter markers is that I'm afraid that they don't really look cinematic, but maybe I should just try next time :D Anywaysw thanks so so much for taking the time for this detailed feedback!!!

Jump cuts are about 10% too frequent at the beginning Do not need audio for "money magnet" just silent mouthing it is better Love the physical "animation" style of the cursive and cut out images Should be zoomed in on the tv just a bit more as it feels overly small When talking about freidman being funded by lobbying efforts, cut out "like this one" as that example is clear already After asking us to subscribe you go back to writing on a full page. I think you can still show the writing out, but should show the completed thought as the cutouts. Lean into that style and remain consistant with it It is probably too late at this stage for this video, but I think physically highlighting the passages in the books is more effective than underlining

Really enjoyed the video! I think the pacing, topic, and your explaination was all good. I have a few minor filming and script changes to suggest:
