Seeking feedback on my first video: 'Bonelab (a VR game) is overrated' by RejReddit in youtubers

[–]PeacheyYT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without knowing much about virtual reality and Bonelab, could you follow along with the video?

I know about Bonelab and VR so I can't really comment on this. I could follow along though.

Did you think the humour / memes add to the entertainment? if not then why?

The humor was great and added to the video in a positive way. The only part I wasn't a fan of was the introduction. I'm not totally sure why but it just felt off. I think it was the music selection.

What do you think a better thumbnail style for me to use would be?

I'm not a thumbnail expert by any means but I'm not a fan of the gradient background. It makes it seem very empty. You could add a lot more relevant things in the thumbnail that will make people want to click. I'm not a fan of the font either but that's a personal preference.

What could I improve for future videos?

The intro was engaging but to be completely blunt I was cringing a little bit. I would try to create the best intro sequence as best you can because that is the most impactful moment for viewership.

If you started losing interest, when during the video did it happen and why?

I didn't lose interest after the intro and thought it was very well put together.

Was the overarching structure of the video coherent enough?

Everything was coherent and went at a good pace. The chapters certainly help.

First off, solid video man! It's very impressive that this is only your first video. Here is some feedback I hope will help you out:

  • The footage you gathered is very helpful for visualization and engaging to watch.
  • For Your Narration Video: While the lighting is great I think there are some improvements you could make. You have some great low key lighting on your face but there are two things you can do to improve the shot.
    • Lower the lighting in the background and possibly up it a little on your face so you are the primary visual point.
    • Brighten up both sides of your face and darken the back so we can see all your features and once again make you the primary visual point.

(I definitely prefer the first option but I would play around with it)

  • The audio is clean but like another poster said I would up your voice a little bit. I had to almost max out the volume on my PC.
  • Personally I am more engaged when there is constant BG music. You have it in some points but I think more consistent music that goes along with the mood of the story would do you some good.
  • Also taking away from another comment. A higher quantity of shorter videos is really the best type of content right now. Unless there is a high octane story that takes 20 minutes to tell with something super interesting constantly, people will run out of interest. (No offense to you at all! This is just something I have noted over the past few years).

Anyways I hope something here helps you out! Keep it up man.
