you begin your …
you begin your video with “ciao come sta”, this form is not used in italy becouse ciao is informal ad the the 3rd person singular “sta” is formal.
you can begin with “ciao, come stai” if you want to be informal or you can use “buongiorno, come sta” to be formal.
to many people you can say “ciao, come state” (informal) or “buongiorno, come state” (formal).
another thing, don’t say “scusi” but use “scusate”, you’re not speaking to only one person.
Good Luck and go on.
