1. Content Curation

Recognize which part of a content piece stands out and can function as a standalone snippet.
1. A snippet should have a complete thought. The audience should be able to understand the message even without watching the full video.
  
  For teasers, it should be attention-grabbing and incorporate relevant keywords or keyphrases to encourage the audience to watch the full video.
2. The message should have a significant impact on the intended viewers.
