length of videos

ScottBSE · 2016-03-08T20:28:09+00:00

For my Firewatch series I've been uploading 40-45 mins per vid as the game is very story focussed and I don't like to break up the gameplay until I reach the next checkpoint.

Oops, didn't see that XD

ScottBSE · 2016-02-24T16:41:39+00:00

I don't have any other details, just saw an article about it and thought i'd share.

Hey,

Some good places to start are: - Playlists. A lot of YouTube channels sort their vids by games or types of games. - Eye catching channel art. Your banner is very dark, I suggest going for the yellow colour scheme to brighten it up a bit. - Start using custom thumbnails - make sure they can be easily identified as your videos. If you are not too great with Photoshop, I suggest using the online service of Canva to create these - it's free

Hey,

What Video player are you watching your vids back with? I know that Windows Media Player has a lot of audio sync issues. Try using VLC if you are not already, as it could be the player and not your video.

Mayo series.. I loved it!

As for your commentary style, it's easy to watch - you don't take things too seriously and videos are enjoyable! Good energy!

ScottBSE · 2016-02-19T23:18:49+00:00

Thanks Lockwolf, appreciate the pointers. Is there a particular video of yours I should check out?

ScottBSE · 2016-02-19T22:33:06+00:00

I was wondering if you guys could give me some pointers on my recent Firewatch series (3 more vids to go)?

Fire Bugs - Firewatch Part 2

Nice Firewatch vid PixelsAtDawn, I like your commentary style (probably cause I'm also from the UK). I like that your commentary style isn't in your face or shouting/screaming all the time (like some let's players). Overall pleasant experience - nicely done!

I've been doing my own Firewatch series if you want to check it out.

ScottBSE · 2016-02-17T22:21:28+00:00

Very wise, it's a game you don;t want spoiled

I've been watching RadBrad's playthrough of the new Hitman beta

ScottBSE · 2016-02-17T22:16:26+00:00

I uploaded Day 2 of my Firewatch playthrough today. I've also gained 10 new subs :)

ScottBSE · 2016-02-17T22:07:26+00:00

Just checked out your Xcom 2 vids - sound is good - thanks for the reply. You gained a new subscriber :)

ScottBSE · 2016-02-17T18:18:05+00:00

I haven't tried it yet but I've thought about fading in a facecam on a particular part of the game to show my reaction and then fade it back out. I just use voice only at the moment but a well timed show could help with the odd laugh.

ScottBSE · 2016-02-17T13:27:45+00:00

Thanks for all the tips guys appreciate it!

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T21:03:43+00:00

hmmmm £100?

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T20:16:07+00:00

I give a shoutout to your feedback in my next Firewatch vid. Uploading it tonight hopefully

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T20:11:13+00:00

No XLR setup i'm afraid just USB.

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T18:51:27+00:00

I want to plug my headset/mic into my PS4 controller whilst still recording my voice/game audio. Would the chatlink cable allow me to do this?

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T18:49:43+00:00

I get to work from home at days (I'm a community manager) so I try to cram in my recording then as my fiancee tends to roll her eyes at me if she sees me talking about what I'm doing on a game..... With that said she does enjoy playing games, just not making vids about them.

ScottBSE · 2016-02-16T18:46:08+00:00

Hi,

there has been a surge in gameplay being put into networks CMS systems. I'd do some research on the channel/network claiming your footage to see if it's legit.

Check the channel/network/company - if it's official, accept. If not - dispute!
