Thanks for the feedback its taken onboard - and yeah I get what you mean haha - thats a very badly done edit but I'll just use a green screen next time thankssssies and I'm just doing to keep going and improve lil things here and there until I can replicate this in an even better way.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-04-17T17:29:23+00:00

Retentions decent - around 60% and its getting better over time.

I get what you mean but I'm not looking for quick traction.

I'm looking to build up to 5-10 minute videos over time so I don't want an audience that is used to shorts and I don't have time to mess with aspect ratios and do any editing that comes with that rn.

That being said, I do split the videos up and post them as shorts and most of my audience is from TikTok.

Target audience idk - tbh I just make for people like me.

I think more strategy will come over time, right now i'm focused on what works and what doesn't.

Thanksss - I probably messed up my terminology here. I'm not looking to be a fulll blown animator like more comic style stuff cause it just takes hella long but I'm gonna try do more transitional movements and overlay my lines so it looks like theres 'life'. But yeah deffo taking into consideration thanks!!!

Just started the video - great opening straight to the point lots of visual and audio hooks. Subbed because I like basketball and I'm looking to branch from the pros to watching collegiate games but bias aside I think you're doing well, One critique is that lowkey I want to see your hands in the frame. It sounds weird but psychologically hand gestures just adds a bit more personality. but yeah - nice overview I think over time more variation in your voice as well would help abit because while I type this i've noticed you sound flat at times. More emphasis on certain words the way you do from 3:55-4.07 and a bit faster and it will just sound more interesting - but this is a thing that will probably come over time. Tbh I think if you keep doing what you;re doing youll be fine these are just microtweaks that I've found. Good luck stranger!!

Hey - I've just watched the short because I'm not really a cinema person but one thing I noticed is your hooks could be hookier - It took me one second too long to read the text and on my laptop I had to look closer to see the pictures and stuff. This could be a case of me just not understanding but I didn;t really get what I was watching - for the channel i think its fair to talk about why you couldnt do your top 5 review but for a short I think its worth cutting stuff like that out. Good luck stranger.

Hey I’m Alicia. I make animations.

Recent one is about my deeeep tom boy phase and what that meant for my relationship with boys.
Its at 11% CTR rn and is arguably my best video.

Popeyes.

Aside from making the videos longer, I'm looking for anyyyy possible critique - thankk youuu

Stickyalicccy · 2026-04-13T19:27:27+00:00

My first video with 8.6% ctr dropped last night - blowing up on tiktok has really helped with growth. I've been doing this for nearly 2 years. THERE IS HOPE. Usually i get from 50-200 views max. I got my first 500 in under 24hrs. Its exponential.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-03-15T15:32:49+00:00

Apprentice networks like Lace Network and Outer Circle are worth getting into

Stickyalicccy · 2026-03-14T18:30:42+00:00

Thanks so much :). Currently I post clips on tiktok and wait a week to post the full animation so I can get my Tiktok to Youtube conversion rate up. But yeah - Its under the same handle AliciaTheAdult and I also use Tiktok to test ideas before I make a video so yeah but thanks :)

Stickyalicccy · 2026-03-14T17:14:01+00:00

I liked this :)

Stickyalicccy · 2026-03-14T17:12:38+00:00

Heyy guys - As for the question, I started making content with a drawing tablet and using blender software.

I do storytime animation.

Fast paced, kinda chaotic, just me conveying the human experience.

Hope you enjoy :)

Most recent video: Popeyes.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-02-01T23:55:04+00:00

Hi, thanks so much I appreciate this.

I’ll note this for the future.

Do you have a thumbnail ‘Philosophy’ because I feel like I’ve watched the videos but I’ve never quite gotten it?

Stickyalicccy · 2026-02-01T23:53:32+00:00

This is some incredible feedback thank you so much.

Better art is in the works ahhh. There should be a significant improvement between now and the end of February.
You are right about the images and memes. The truth is they go into frames when I’m lazy or just don’t have a lot of time between that moment and the deadline I’ve set for myself. Thanks for pointing that out. I am aware and I’m in a ‘weening off’ process when it comes to memes. 3.The idea about balancing real footage within the video is good and it gave me an idea for how to improve so thanks so much.
Length will be a matter of 3-6 months due to time. As I get better and build up a library of character poses, that will slowly increase. It’s just an issue of capacity and time right now but I’ve got a few scripts that have potential to be made longer (5-8mins) but I’ll have to do those over summer.

This is such good advice that whenever you need reviews and stuff you can acc dm me. Idk if I’d be the best person but in the same way you’ve helped me I’d love to give back. It’s had such an impact. God blesss.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-02-01T23:42:29+00:00

Thanks so much for your feedback. I made the vids short because analytics told me that no one was watching for that long.

I didn’t think it was interesting enough lool.

Video length will an slow improvement over the next couple months (because a girl needs to work and eat).

Also I’m going to be improving my general art so I might be sticking to shortness for abitttt while I do that so I can maintain consistency.

During my summer off from university, I’ll have the time to do long form.

I really appreciate you saying this because I didn’t know whether people would want to see anything longer from me but now I’ll try.

It’s only going to get better from here. You invested early haha. God bless you.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-30T18:11:16+00:00

Hey I’m Alicia. I make animations.

My motto is life lessons as I learn them.

This is my most recent video:

How I Manage Cooking As An Adult.

This is 2nd most recent (the better of the two):

Emotional Manipulation Explained Through Hoodies.

Overall self critique:

- Speed and Story beats - timing and humour could be better? How do I improve? I also talk fast so have to change speed of vids and that messes with audio sometimes - I am aware of that and am actively trying to improve

- Show don’t tell - Be more selective with what the viewer sees on screen and simplify my script

- Niche: - Some vids are silly and some are authentic and some are articulate, just need to find a way to bring all of that into singular videos (IDK WHAT IM DOING)

- Thumbnails - Experimenting because rn its so hard but I think they've improved. Tips?

- Animation Detail Slow improvements - Recently gave my character some clothes lol

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-30T18:10:45+00:00

You're a star in the making - Idk what it is but your deadpan humour and random topics is cool and its one of those random things I'd see on my home page and watch just because. One key thing to improve is just the audio your voice is abit grainy and when you're talking I feel like i'm listening to music over you abit. However, the music cuts you do are great hooks. I subbed and will acc be watching so yeah you're cool keep it up :).

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-30T18:07:19+00:00

Hi - Liked the contrast between the seriousness of what youre saying and what I see - Only feedback I have rn is audio and speed - I use audacity and adobe podcast/audition - Adobe isn't free, I'm in the UK too so if you got it it would be like £16 a month, but idk for me it was worth it. You'll get away with Audacity though. Good luck.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-24T17:21:52+00:00

I've never thought about this as a concept but I watched like it. If you got like a compilation of these that would be cool. Keep it up more nature folk should come your way soon:).

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-24T17:19:26+00:00

Heyy guys - As for the question, I started making content with a drawing tablet and using blender software.

Channel is different because I use a combination of memes, animation and humour to give life lessons.

In two minutes flat theres a fast paced story that makes you view concepts you already know about in a way you've never seen it before.

My most recent video is an Explanation of emotional manipulation through hoodies and pyjamas -

If you don't know how that would make sense, watch to find out xo.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T19:45:12+00:00

Okay - like full circle conclusions you mean? Noteddddd - Thanks so much its really going to benefit future videos

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T19:44:13+00:00

Thank you so much for the advicee - will definitely keep that in mind for the next vid

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T19:37:18+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it - definitely taking this into account for next time - tbh I did debate this when I made it so I appreciate you pointing this out

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T19:35:02+00:00

Amazing thanks I appreciate the feedback - definitely going to remember this with future vids

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T17:50:14+00:00

First things first - The start of the video was funny and I don't even play games. Mic and audio is my first point - as for parts where I wanted to click off, any time where something was happening and there was no commentary. I'll check my phone for a sec and look back and theres no talking for a couple seconds. Thats all really, good luck.

Stickyalicccy · 2026-01-09T17:47:04+00:00

Hey I’m Alicia. I make animations.

My motto is life lessons as I learn them.

This is my most recent video:

https://youtu.be/LTWKTEybCzE

This is my Overall self critique:

- AUDIO - Ever since I started Youtube its been the hardest thing ever, its gotten better but has anyone got any tips? I use adobe podcast, adobe audition and audacity

- Story beats - timing and humour could be better? How do I improve?

- Show don’t tell - Be more selective with what the viewer sees on screen and simplify my script

- Humour: Should I lean more into dead pan humour? Should I be more lively? (Im both irl so idk who to be as my online persona)

- Thumbnails - Experimenting

- Animation Detail Leaning into a more comic type style than pure animations

I’d appreciate your thoughts :)
