I notice that you take 7 steps. You might want to try 6 steps, just take your first step with your right foot.

5 step approach, you don't start the ball with the first step. Footwork is pretty good, timing appears close, too. It looks like you have a tendency to grab the ball at the top of the backswing. That is probably grip related, too much bevel or too much reverse.
I believe your big issue may be your swing line. You bump out at the top of the swing. With that swing line, you need to have hold to bowl well and you will play better up the lane. If you try to swing the ball with the bump out, not only will you pull a lot of shots, you will have difficulty reading the lanes.
To limit the bump, try starting with your hand more on the side of the ball through the downswing and let the ball fall from the top of the backswing.

on ur sideview i think u r doin ok

the video shot from behind i think u r doin something weird at the top of ur backswing, its like the swing getting at the top and then moves to the right. my advise would be let it be straight up and down, hit on the ball if its needed and practice the consistency first

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.
