πŸŽ₯My first promo video, take two - is it good enough?😎 [poll]

Hi IH,

In response to https://www.indiehackers.com/post/my-first-promo-video-is-it-good-enough-poll-245d90ea2d, I was back at the drawing board.

Here's what I came up with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wY42w7Pl3uk

I've pretty much taken all previous advice, fully redone the video, and trimmed it down to 58 seconds.

The whole point of this video/promo is to showcase the simplicity of the app, and clearly to entice people to use it.

I'd love to hear your thoughts -- did I achieve this, or should I go back to the drawing board (again 😁)?

Thanks!

P.S. @JHercules, @thearnabmondal, @leticiasouza, @Wishmesh - I'd love to hear your thoughts, since you have seen the previous one 😁 Thanks!

    @johnt2021, I was off-the-grid... but now I am back :)
    I like it. It is much better than the previous one. I like the pace and background music. It is not confusing anymore. Good job!

    It's not only dope - it actually gave me goosebumps!

    The music, the speed of the video, the actual video itself.... everything is so good! John, you nailed it!

    On a side-by-side comparison with the previous version, what I liked the most was that now that there's no 'human' it gives the impression that the product is more automated (I don't know if that makes sense).

    I feel like doing a video now and trying it out! Congrats!!

      Wow, thanks!
      I've had so many mixed feelings - like, did I try too much, are the intro/outro overkill, is the music ok? 😁
      And yeah, it took a while to have it done, since once again, I've had to implement quite a few more features, so that I could achieve all that, within the application itself 😁
      Now, working on optimizations, and more cool features to come😁 Thanks again!

      Oh, and of course, I'll have to create another version for youtube 😁

      Thanks! That's basically the next thing to do -- this was for tiktok/instagram/youtube shorts.
      But as a side note, Instagram is out, since the amazing zucky hasn't rolled the "60 seconds" update for Reels in Romania.
