Each shoot required budget and time. Continuing with the same format risked missing the 1M-view target.

Questions Raised

  • Are the recipes not interesting enough?

  • Is the storytelling too polished for TikTok?

  • Do the videos lack a native feel?

Solution Implemented

  • Shifted to TikTok-native storytelling with fast cuts and dynamic pacing.

  • Recorded organic-sounding voiceovers using phone audio.
