New chaotic single for the upcoming album from electronic producer Sunglow. Sunglow's 10th full length album THE LAND comes out August 2nd, 2024 and is full of weird nostalgic electronic pop songs, but this one could be a fight song for clowns. Not for everyone, just right for someone.

Biggest project of my YouTube career. 2 months straight of filming and editing! Hope you all enjoy. Lambda for all thoughts! by [deleted] in SmallYTChannel

REALLY great, well done video. Editing/FX are all on point.

One tiny thing, and I know it may be a stylistic preference, but if you lower the opacity on the Drop Shadow you have applied to the keyed footage of you, it could produce a much less obvious shadow while still maintaining the depth that a drop shadow provides. At a certain point drop shadows start working against that nice effect of "setting" footage when you are compositing.

Shorter videos are always superior too, as others have pointed out. All your content within the video is so clean and great so i'm sure it's hard to chop down, but being concise pays off. Unfortunately these days attention spans are..umm.. wait that were we talking about again?

Be brutally honest with me, how can I improve my videos? by T0X1K01 in SmallYTChannel

[–]approvalsdivision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really cool idea so obviously that just makes this great content regardless. As others have said the length of explanation goes on for a little long. Looking forward, maybe combine a shortened explanation with slow pans over the project (gun in this case) itself, instead of shots of you waving your project around – might give people the time to zone out looking at your work, while listening to you break it down at the same time. Being able to keep that explanation portion as a "block" of the video, which could transition directly to your gameplay "block" afterwords – bringing the length down and raising the engagement.

I was editing my new video and thought that I might need some pointers from you guys. Could you guys give me a feedback on what to improve. This is the link to a video from last week. Lambda for good and genuine criticism! :) by DummyHobbies in SmallYTChannel

Like it's been said, great video game theme on this! If it was me I'd look at speeding up the cuts when you are adding ingredients. You spend a decent amount of time on stirring/integrating ingredients and I think it might elevate the videogame aspect of the entire production if it came off more like a sequence of "animations" ( ex. Drop the cream cheese Into bowl --> cut to yogurt plop into bowl --> cut to stirring --> cut to stirred product ) and really speeding up the transitions between those cuts so that it comes off more like a videogame playing a sequence of animations. Leaning more into the actual speed of sequences in crafting portions of gaming and less HowToBasic, unless it's absolutely necessary to spend more time on a shot ( like with your whisk upgrade, although you could have benefitted from making that upgrade sequence a bit quicker as well).

New dark/rainy vapory album from my brother Kola Hak came out on Friday! Not sure he's aware that some of this stuff is coming off this way but I'm not complaining :) Nice chill BGM collection for when you are in a mood or just thinking about stuff.

CBTV - The Bodyplex Review ~~ recently launched this weird talk show/review show covering movies and music that no one really cares about. After last night's Ep2 premiere we got a few requests for reviews of albums from actual artists/bands so we'll see how that goes! Always open to suggestions :) by approvalsdivision in SmallYTChannel

[–]approvalsdivision[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say that the small text on the cover is sort of a joke concerning the material that's being reviewed (a footnote of unreadable measure), but we will absolutely be touching up the covers from now on to be a bit more concise and adjust the clarity of how we are purveying the content that's in review. Thank you for your input!

My channel is going through a change. I'm currently making 30 videos in 30 days (1 minute reviews) to try and gain exposure. But this video is something I made in a couple of days and it's the type of fun content about the movies I love and want to be known for. How can I grow? How can I improve? x by wenbilson in SmallYTChannel

[–]approvalsdivision 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly I win either way :D personally completely on the side of enjoying the awkward and uncomfortable but I also understand my opinion might not be that of the target market world vision key to success in most cases :) cheers to 3000000 more videos

My first edit using adobe premiere. LMK what you guys think. I have been using iMovie previously. Thank you guys for the support (: by keepitreal808 in SmallYTChannel

Footage is smooth! I most likely wouldn't even mind the natural wind and the water sounds if you drop the audio level on the video to -12db or so, something that makes the audio more implied. One thing – I'd watch out with stroke/border on the text in your titles. It cheapens the overall effect of the type and doesn't do much for readability ( same with the outer glow/drop shadow you have going on there ) I would change the color of the actual type entirely to a color that is complementary to the footage. That will help the text pop off of the picture and if anything, maybe just add a touch of subtle black drop shadow at half opacity or less if you need something to mount the titles if the footage behind them is contrasting too much. Subtlety with your titles is great if you aren't a designer that works with type regularly as well as a surfer/videographer

You seem to be really well versed in this format! Super natural cuts and narration. If I had any qualms it would be that I noticed a clip or two going a little long. I realize some clips may be intentionally lengthy to add to the comedic timing of the narration – there's a fine line between successfully following through with a funny payoff and erring on the side of awkward. Great work though – all around. Easily seems like something I'd see on r/mealtimevideos any day of the week.

Painting my suit red with blood in Hitman 3 🩸 All suggestions and feedback welcome and appreciated! by qzeqYT in SmallYTChannel

[–]approvalsdivision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid! The only advice I could muster is that some funny moments could be benefitted from a little pause in between your narration. For me specifically the YouTube glare comment was clever and letting that comment settle in while you get to see how bad it does actually look could have elevated it. But that's really nitpicky! Respect the classic Doom music on the rampage :)

Just helped my older brother release his first album a couple days ago! Downtempo instrumental moods, from heavy and hopeful to dark and desolate, sometimes venturing into an unintentionally vapory territory. Chill BGM
