When you want something done, ask a busy person.

I used the OSM diary entry to do Public Transport. Might work for you .
People can make comments under it .. and you can edit the first entry
you made to correct errors and make changes.
See https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Warin61/diary/45106
Videos are like lessons... you need to be very well prepared to present
them. Written stuff you can do fairly easily and review later. A
presentation (video/lesson) should be correct the first time around. For
preference .. I'd write it .. much less stress.
