I made my first-ever YouTube video.
The idea is: "Bug of the Week." Exploring the technical intricacies of real-life bugs behind major recent cyberattacks in a concise, informative format.
This first attempt is an objectively bad YouTube video. What do you think of the concept? Is this interesting? Should I work on my technique and keep making videos like this one? Any suggestions, tips, or tricks are *very welcome*.
@elsehow Just watched the video, it's good! It isn't actually a bad youtube video by my standards, it's just kind of... lofi, and that's a nice vibe. You have good charisma and the editing is good. The content itself is better than what I expected honestly.
The only parts that need improving I think you already know about those, but just removing all the "auto" settings from the camera to keep it from adjusting in the middle of the video would help.
@elsehow of course! And it will never be perfect. You’re going about it the right way. Ship it, take notes for next time, repeat.
Edit: I mean you’ll never ship if you wait until it’s perfect. Reread what I wrote and the tone/phrasing seemed wrong.
Excellent 🙂
-(Video and explanation)
I also really enjoyed the "This is me doing really dry standup" format of the video and would love to see more of that in future videos . . possibly with a "Mic drop" if you review something that gets '5 bags'
@elsehow Good video with interesting material well-explained.
Suggestions for future videos:
1) Step back a little from the camera so the top of your head is not cut off.
2) Try to have more even lighting. The fluctuation in lighting was a little distracting.
3) Don't worry about holding a mic. I think it could be a nice distinctive feature of your videos.
4) As someone else said, make the code font as big as you can without having the lines wrap awkwardly.
Cool stuff!
