There isn't one definitive recipe for compost and different proportions can work. The ones included in the video are those proposed by Rodale (and other authorities) for a hot compost pile. It's true that there's a lot of nitrogen in 3 parts green to 1 part brown, but nitrogen is the "match" that sets a hot pile on fire.

Google 'Hot and Cold Composting" - it's a good article. Hot composting is faster but requires attention to keep carbon and nitrogen in the optimum ratio. Cold composting requires minimal effort but may a year or two to produce usable compost.
Hope this helps you! :)

At 3:35 - I just read that the ratio of browns to greens should 'actually' be 4 parts browns (carbon) to 1 part greens (nitrogen). That's unless what I read is wrong - I read that too many greens can produce unwanted bacteria-killing acids and a rotten-egg odor (articles titled 'Composting For The Homeowner,' and, 'Gardening Know How').

When you start to add fruit to your pile do you attract any mice or rats
