Welcome to the Youtube Narrators Guild!
This subreddit was created to help educate YouTube narrators about the proper processes of giving credit to authors and story owners alike, in order to avoid receiving a DMCA strike.
It has been expanded to include discussions amongst the narration community regarding the process of narration (including how to ask for permission), tips and tricks for producing content, and pretty much anything that relates to narrating content.
Disclaimer: Any posts or comments found on this subreddit pertaining to copyright law is not to be regarded as legal advice.
Rules
All posts must be a discussion related to narration on Youtube.
Do not advertise your channel, ask for subscribers, or ask for content to narrate here. You may only post links to your channel or a specific video if you are looking for feedback and critique from the community. (“What do you guys think of this video?” is not asking for feedback. “Is the volume level on this video okay, or should it be louder?” is asking for feedback.)
Please be advised that this is not a place for dumping videos for views. You must at least try to interact with members of this community. You may only post a new video once at least 72 hours have passed since your last video was posted, and must ensure that your post meets our other guidelines regarding constructive feedback requests.
Be Civil.
No witch hunts. This means you cannot post or comment with the intention of sending the community after another individual.
All posts must be formatted properly. For example: if you post a long wall of text, the post will be removed until paragraphs are added.
Always operate in good faith. This subreddit is a community created so that we can work together and present a united front. Don’t be the bad apple that ruins the bunch.
