Unsure about my INTRO for Dune video essay.

I recently made a video essay on Dune, it's titled:

"How Dune PERFECTED The Lost Art of SILENCE"

I think I've put together a pretty decent video, I know the audio isn't the best, but it's all I can achieve with my current setup.

My main problem is Im unsure of this intro with the screen visual thingy I put together at the start of the video.

While I think it's neat, I almost feel like the movie clips at the start, starting at (1:00) are a more effective intro.

Or just going straight into the chapter 1: A Silent Soundscape title card? As I think the intro of that when the music comes in is engaging.

Really unsure 😭

I think the intro is very cool but I think the part from 1:00 is in my opinion criticism that I wouldn't put in a video without expanding more on it as soon as I say it
Now, I haven't seen the whole video but I imagine you went back to those points and talked more about them and depending on how you've done that I would just leave that and maybe remove the earlier section
Sorry if it sounds like nitpicking but it's the only thing I would personally change, to be honest it would still work without doing any changes

Thank you so much for the comment. I don't refer back to those movies. I put them there as examples of loud movies, I had that section actually placed at the end of the video, but I thought it was engaging so I moved it to the front, but I realize now it kind of pollutes the intro, it's almost like i have 2 intro sections.

So you're saying the 'film screen' bit is actually better, and I should just clip the 1:00 onwards section?

Yep exactly
