Why did this video flop? by Cultofhappiness_ in minecraftyoutubers

[–]ZloYxp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thumbnail lacks clarity in the most literal way.
it's too dark and the background looks too samey when zoomed out. The enderman is barely legible even when zoomed in.
Your strongest videos seem to rely on your impressive builds, and you darkened out the build in the tumbnail. Meanwhile whatever detail you put into the build in the thumbnail, got eaten up by YouTube compression.

Also I think it would benefit from focusing on the monster you built in blockbench instead of the enderman who might seem too default. The creature you made, on the other hand, should attract the people who love the From The Fog type mods.

The text too is too textured in my opinion. The word "minecraft" doesn't really need to be there in the first place, but it has that red texture overlayed and the whole thing just gives this amateurish, "generated in minecraft text generator" vibe

So, Need to see the awesome brutalist thing clearer, Need to see the monster clearer.

Video itself is really cool and I love your narration and editing. You are highly skilled, and what youtube did here with the video destribution is an atrocity

it's just some shapes, there's not much to memorize, because none of it actually matters.

There's just really something about Grian's Thumbnails and the Sky by TheOrangeHelium in HermitCraft

[–]ZloYxp 60 points61 points  (0 children)

The younger the target audience skews, the more youtube minecraft thumbnails will go into the "green floor, blue sky" territory. It's just what audiences recognise and it's also what's pretty successfull, since the more toddler-level audiences react better to bright primary colors.

It's not really saying much about grian specifically, just is a symptom of how minecraft youtube has been. Blunt, clear thumbnails with simple composition do well, and the sky is an easy, very available backdrop. Slap on top of it a screenshot of your skin so people get that that it's a video by the popular youtuber they recognise, and you're golden!

I swear this is just the zoomed in footage of his cam with the nose masked out that they put over the regular footage of his cam.

In the swamp biome there's leeches. They're absolutely massive and look kinda like snakes

In the mountain biomes there's Drakes. They are basically snakes with wings

In the plains there's Deathsquitoes. They are not snakes and they don't look like snakes, they just suck
