From what I read all these advices go against what YC expect on this pitch video.
No script at all (I can't look right now, but there are several sources on this claim). No video professionals either!
And the point of the video is not to pitch the product to a customer. It is to pitch yourself to YC. That said, I think the video is too long and you should focus more on you and why this product is a good choice, not the product advertising itself.
And your co-founders must be on the video. That's it. No excuses.
