The title, the thumbnail, the contents, the music, the timing, everything. And I mean EVERYTHING.I'm very proud of the video, but for some reason it's only got a watchtime of 1:20. So, tell me whatever it is in this 6:20 video that leaves a bad taste in your mouth; is it before the video has even begun?

I look forward to this absolute destruction of the video.

In this video, Sketch-y Writing discusses Chekhov's Gun and the questions that come along with it, using examples from the movies Back to the Future and Toy Story.

The questions that will be answered are; What is Chekhov's Gun, How to use Chekhov's Gun, Pros of Chekhov's Gun, Cons of Chekhov's Gun, Examples of Chekhov's Gun.

Hey! So right off the bat I think the way you explain this is very eloquent but my main disconnect is surrounding the graphics. It was very distracting to see a combination of microsoft paint drawings and cuts to overscaled images. These things are greatly diminishing the important things you're talking about and because I was distracted, it was difficult for me as a viewer to understand what Chekhov's gun is and I'm still confused. If you're going to focus heavily on visual elements aiding in your educational content, I would highly recommend learning how to do some kind of basic animation with maybe some assets you can buy online.

also if I had to be nitpicky, audio quality could be better but to be honest if you fixed the graphics problem its not incredibly distracting (for me at least)

after looking at your channel, it seems like you're trying to build off of the "sketch" look, so the microsoft paint thing makes more sense now. Your next goal should be finding a way to better animate a "sketch" look, because if its done the right way I think it could be an effective way to get your point across.
