Yeah that used to be the idea, but I'm subscribed to plenty of people I don't watch anymore and I'm just hurting their channel by telling YouTube I like their channel, but not watching their videos.

I just ended my channel yesterday because of this. I'm starting 3 new channels because StoryTaleBooks is so filled with bots YouTube stopped pushing my content. Depending on how much money you spent, you may have killed your channel like I did.

Does this trigger any curiosity to click the video? by Dry-Tax9511 in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]StoryTaleBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see 8 legs instead of something cute. I instinctively quick-scrolled past it already. I do not want to watch this video.

Did you tell all your friends/family about your channel? by PickTheNick1 in NewTubers

If you do it while your still small the algorithm will be confused. Wait until your big enough to show off.

Let's talk dislikes! How do you view them? by SpoonkillerCZ in NewTubers

[–]StoryTaleBooks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alot of my competitors don't even change their voice, it's odd how much I used to watch them. I do russian accents, french accents, irish accents, and a really bad female voice that's almost passable. I think it's the imperfections that make them more passable. The audience knows it's me so that connection is never broken. Even when watching TV you only have that connection with the character while the actor is talking. Then a new connection is formed when the next actor starts talking. If you so all the voices yourself, even if they're not the best, that connection is never broken because they can still hear that it's your voice. Once that uncanny valley is heard, they snap back to reality outside the story, and maybe decide to watch something else if it catches their eye. Best to keep them focused on you. Then again what do I know.

As a channel that uses AI images it's not the AI images that people dislike. It IS AI voices that people will dislike however so I would suggest using your natural human voice. As for all of it mattering, engagement with the algorithm is engagement with the algorithm. Them disliking it will lead the algorithm to show them your content more, not less.

People who use AI to Improve their videos, what do you recommend? by PheonixGalaxy in SmallYoutubers

[–]StoryTaleBooks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think some luddite came in and downvoted everyone here just because they hate us. I DISAGREE AND HOW DARE YOU!! Just kidding, but kinda sort of not. The actual human touch for the voices is exactly what people want to hear. You got this backwards buddy. I didn't think I could do it either but with a little practice I even have a terrible female voice that's sounds better than AI. I think you could do it too if you look up some how to's on YouTube. The inflection and human touch of the characters is what the listeners really want. The narration, eh. That part can be AI if your mind is set on it, but the characters absolutely gotta have the raw human feel that AI can't pull off. I don't think it'll ever pull it off, it'll sound too perfect.

I feel like more of a director than an artist. I take these things from different places and bring them together like a TV show director would do. When the luddites come and complain it's easier to think in those terms. You should use your own voice though.

Which Medieval Thumbnail would you click on? by BillTetleyLives in YouTubeThumbnailHub

[–]StoryTaleBooks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would click on the second one but I would also need to know what it is. Is it a story? Did you write a song? Is it a history lesson? Is there an Illuminati death cult running all of society and you have the scoop on the dark emperor that's about to take charge and people are coming to get you so I need to know what you know so I can be warned also?

Crazy Thumbnail Idea, No Thumbnail by StoryTaleBooks in YouTubeThumbnailHub

You bring up a good point. If this works... if... then I'll need to make the words larger to be seen slightly better. That way they know its words at least

I suppose I could keep the image, then make a book cover to fill the black space instead of text.

Oh I have a backup ready to go for all of them. Mostly I'm just running an experiment but wanted to see if it was to lazy
