I found that first transition tough, as it is quite a contrast I feel, but maybe a better vocal level would have helped there, rather than the louder guitar.
Yeah the intro guitar might be a little loud. It's not that huge of a part and I don't think it needs to be that out in front. It could even be smaller. I added an example below. A very rough idea but you get the point.

My gut reaction is to not think so much in terms of volume level (though that's a big part). Think in terms of size or weight or importance or the spotlight or whatever is going to be on screen during the video. Like Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" isn't a good mix because of her vocal level. It's her Voice and how the mix supports it. Mostly by keeping things out of her way. It's a different song sure but some of the ideas work similarly.

If that makes sense. I've been cooped up too long.

It doesn't have to sound good. People just need to think it sounds good.
