Mike Malaska did a great video on the left hip out of the way. Basically, the video was saying that on the backswing the trail hip moves straight back and on the downswing, the left hip moves straight back. ▶ this video

This looks like a video of me. You're not getting your right hip turned back so there's no room for your arms to drop down so the club can release from the inside. Your brain is basically making a last ditch attempt to release it down night line and not pull hook it to hell. These videos pretty will summarize it: ▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video

Butt on the wall stuff is a great start. You might already being trying this, but your left butt needs to touch the wall on the backswing as well. At the moment, your right hip turns out (closer to ball) too much in the backswing. Your left hip needs to go back and the right hip stay a bit more still (I’m aware the hips are connected lol). ▶ this video I’d recommend practicing with short clubs and/or slower swings …

Honestly not terrible. You look very tense and uncomfortable on your setup and swing. You need to relax a bit more and find a routine for grip/stance/distance from ball. Your right hip moves towards the ball making it tough for your hands/arms/club to have enough room to make a proper swing which causes you to stand up at impact. Also at contact your hips are pointed at the ball instead of either pointed at target …

Your hips are working the wrong way causing an OTT move. In the back swing your right hip stays put and the left moves out. What’s supposed to happen is your left stay put, right goes back, then left moves to meet the right. ▶ this video
