    • Having issues...

      Ok, i am currently having several problems on regards to making a better YT Video.

      And one of them are: -
      - No Intro or Outro to any of the videos i usually upload.
      - Lack of edits (i don't know why, but i prefer to keep them that way, Game Grumps have done it).
      - Mic experience (idk about this one, would being myself be enough to make a good video?)
      - Buying a faceCam (I don't think that will help out to users who barely know how to edit a video, so i'd rather keep it the same style as Game Grumps
      does. Except, it is going to be my own way of doing it).
      - My Communication (i am uploading a M&B video based on me playing with some friends i know irl, but idk if my audio is a bit shallow/ or good enough
      for viewers not to have their ear drums burst. Let me know what improvements should i go for).


      That's all of them i, i guess..please let know if you have any inquiries (cultural distortion, sometimes happens when people from different cultures communicate with each other).

      Cheers :D
      Be or not be....what matters is being yourself....don't panic under any circumstances....try to be normal...and imagine yourself lying on an open plain grassfield filled with strong wind blowing around you, the sun shines, and the sky is clear as blue....and relax..... :thumbsup:

    • Intros & Outros are just seasoning. I've seen plenty people do fine without em!
      Editing is a key thing, I personally don't edit much at all other than where it's needed. Like dying 12089934828934729374 times in 1 spot. Or when something funny happens I might edit a little. I dont have REAL editing software though so it's all I could do. I don't think the lack of this would make your channel less appealing, but I do think having a lot of good editing could make it more appealing than normal.
      As far as mics, being yourself is good. However, this is YouTube, people are 99% most likely there for entertainment. Which means they're usually there for you to be funny in your commentary, or scream like a girl when something pops up, which is faked and just acting by a lot of people. However real or not, people love watching it. I've seen a few that don't do this succeed pretty well too, but how, I couldn't tell you.
      Facecam is just a pleasure I think. If you're not screaming and jumping out of your chair, is the facecam really going to add much fun to the game? Probably not, so I don't think it'd be a huge requirement. Couldn't hurt though.

      Your audio seems fine. I scanned through a couple videos, didn't hear any talking XD. So I think if you're not going to get your viewers entertained from your sense of humor, it needs to be games they're interested in. Popular people, for instance pewdiepie, can play anything. He's already got a fan base. He could play the stupidest most boring game ever. But people would still watch, because he'd have them laughing the entire time anyway. But without that humor, the people you're appealing to are the ones who wanna watch a playthrough (or skilled event if thats what it is, like a 50 kill 1 death in modern warfare 3). So consider what games you're playing.

      I say just keep at it, you get better. I think my commentary has come a long way since I started and I still think it blows. But I (and others) have noticed a difference. So I guess it's like any other skill... You get better with experience. So keep going ;D Oh and I think organizing your videos into playlists / finishing series would help too. I had to browse a few videos to see which were actually gameplay and which were soundtracks because YT cuts off the title for being so long.

      I dunno if this was the kind of post you were looking for. I just woke up a bit ago so I'm extra looney. I hope it helped though. If not... I tried XD.

    • Like i said..my upcoming vid (an hour long) M&B ..is where the fun begins...i usually communicate a lot with my friends irl.
      And i wasn't really used to playing a game and talking at the same time....but the M&B involves lots of talking and funny things in it.

      I think i am ok with recording videos...except that i am recording it around an open environment (you know, people around the house makes this process way harder than it looks...)
