24:5511 Things You Must Not Do When Driving A Manual Car
Save referenceIdentity & Self-Relevance
If you drive manual, reaching for the gear stick is something you do all the time. Here it sits under 'Don't Do This', with no hint of what's wrong. With 11 in the title, you want to check which of your habits made the list.
'Must Not' is stronger than 'shouldn't', hinting at damage without naming it, and 11 is enough to make most manual drivers suspect they're guilty of at least one.
Showing an ordinary move instead of an obvious blunder is what makes it work, because 'Don't Do This' then points at something you do too.
When you teach common mistakes, show an ordinary action your viewers do every day under a 'don't' command. Keep the reason it's wrong out of the packaging, and put the number of mistakes in the title.
Show a normal habit under a warning, and hide why.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
