Optimization Tips
Get the most out of every click.
Ensure your subject's eyes are always clearly visible, even at the 1/10th scale of a mobile feed.
Use vibrant complementary colors to create a "Pattern Interrupt" in the infinite scroll.
Keep critical text away from the bottom-right corner where video duration overlays are placed.
