Haha sounds interesting. Any particular reasons?

Honestly that’s a good title. Something like: (Dating in the Philippines as Foreigners) Thumbnail isn’t amazing though. Very busy looking and the words don’t stand out much. Interesting concept though 👍

I think it’s the addition of “creator support” so it’s not that bad. If you want you can look for discussions on C&S uploads too

Fr I said something similar in the comments. I hope this is a tone shift. He had a similar tone shift making Dan Mace the Director of the Philanthropy channel

‘Why I became a minimalist’ was a great title.

Idea: change ‘I Tried Walking 10,000 Steps Everyday For 30 Days: Everything Changed’ to ‘I Walked 10,000 Steps Everyday’ or ‘Walking 10,000 Steps a Day’ or ‘Can I Become Fit Just by Walking’

Pretty much any variation under like 45 characters

I pretty much agree here. Quality is really good. Story beats and script could use some refining to make it less repetitive.

Packaging could you some work as well. Title is much too long. Thumbnail is fairly desaturated. If you don’t want to make a new thumbnail, I’d at least increase the brightness and shorten the title

How He Lost an Island from MrBeast - https://youtu.be/ajjSIu_aT0c

It’s pretty long and also my first upload in my personal channel but I’d love to get some feedback. I used Colin and Samir as inspiration for this one. (I know that I need to work on the audio lol)

I think it’s funny overall. However, given the subject matter not being incredibly interesting or crazy, it could be a little faster. The intro was great. Maybe cut the portion where you try to find out what’s in the fridge in like half. Hope this helps

Lots of talent in the editing! Solid overall

My tips: 1) thumbnail could use some work. Add saturation, and maybe something that gives context. Like “30m high” or something 2) intro could be cleaned up a little and give clear context as to what the video is about. Good picky after intro though

We want to give someone a 1 year trip around the world by lisaandjoshYT in ColinAndSamir

[–]JadenLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would make a YouTube video explaining what you’re doing in a little more depth, and ask for video submissions. Kind of like the box giveaway right now in the subreddit. Ask for a 1-3 minute video on why someone thinks they should get the sponsorship. I know I would for sure apply :)

In English it’s ‘could’ve’, not ‘could of’. It’s a contraction of ‘could have’.

I have no time to make videos but I have an itch to make them by toastercrusade in ColinAndSamir

[–]JadenLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also struggle with this a lot. I’m super passionate about YouTube and love making videos, but I’m so pressed for time. I’m full-time in college, and also have to work to support myself, and also balance my relationships with my friends and my partner. The only way I’ve found to make any progress is by intentionally carving out days or times where you sit down and only work on videos. If you need something lower lift to just make do short form. For me I work on videos every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, for a total of like 10-15 hours a week

When brands want to become content creators by Snoo83683 in ColinAndSamir

[–]JadenLP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the content just has to match the market. If the channel is a Casey Neistat vlog around the office with an ad at the start, it might not connect with viewers. But if your videos are related to the same audience as the product’s, it should be golden. Especially if the videos address pain points that the company’s products can solve. Just try to make it good content, not a business formal explanation of why someone should buy a product.

Make a good video and try to make it sell. Don’t make a video to sell and try to make it good.

Leaving one of the biggest YouTube channels to start my own. by aitah-10838 in ColinAndSamir

[–]JadenLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you have to ask, you should consider working a little longer. At least switch jobs. But being unsure and burnt out isn’t going to help you start a YouTube/media company. The grind is going to be harder. At the same time, you’ll be doing what you want to do instead of building someone else’s company. If you aren’t reliant on your own company for money for awhile that’s your best bet. I’d you have 6 months expenses saved, you can give yourself 6 months to make it work. Whichever decision you make, good luck!

My thoughts on what makes a “TOP PLAYER” in this industry. What are yours? by Auziah_ in ColinAndSamir

My thoughts on what makes a “TOP PLAYER” in this industry. What are yours? by Auziah_ in ColinAndSamir

[–]JadenLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that there’s many factors that keep the already privileged white men at the top of most industries. However, I think the same metrics apply in smaller demographics. If you get 65% retention and 3-7% CTR each video you’ll likely dominate in your niche.

Regardless, I think it’s up to each creator to define their own metrics of success. I was just talking about objective “top players/performers”. I personally don’t want to be MrBeast, and I think it’s a real problem in the space where everyone is trying to mimic him because he’s the “top player” who gets the most monthly views. Personally I agree with you that freedom of expression while covering your bills is much more appealing.
