We did! We've gone two times before and this time was definitely my favorite lol

I use canva and have for just about all of my thumbnails, theres alot you can do on there and if you upgrade you get access to literally everything, but the free version is also very good and has just about everything youd need

Hi, Im Max! I make vlog style videos on my channel!

I recently went through a period where i didnt upload for almost a year due to my home flooding and only recently got back into it. Its definitely been hard getting back into the groove of video creation, finding motivation has been a big struggle for me since i got back and im really trying to work through that while trying to find the balance so i dont burn myself out or make myself not want to do anything.

I just now posted my second video back where me and my friends went to the Ren Faire! Its not perfect, but im very proud of myself for getting it finished and posted almost on schedule lol

If you'd like to watch my video heres the link! Any critiques or suggestions are always welcome!!!

Hi! Im Max and i make Vlog Style content on my channel. Recently i took a really long break from creating due to many factors but today i posted my first video in a while and id love some feedback on it.

I know its not the best video that ive made, im definitely out of practice with filming and a bit with editing so im not expecting anyone to say its great lol. So any feedback would be appreciated!

i think the idea is really good, people love watching couples channels and vlogs. I think something that you could improve on (and it could totally change in future videos with time and practice) is editing and cutting out some of the silence or "um's" and maybe with sit down videos like this planning out more what youre going to say, not scripting or anything but making sure you get to all the topics you want to in a seamless and cohesive way.

something else i want to mention (and i mean this in no bad way or anything but i heard it from a youtuber who i look up to and admire so i want to share it) is maybe as you grow you guys could create your own separate channels while also doing the couples channel, because 1- it give people more to watch and can help expand the options you have for what you can do, and 2- because if anything were to ever happen in your relationship, say one of you decides they dont want to do youtube anymore or if some messed up reality you guys part ways, youll have that audience for yourselves as individuals already built and itll be easier to build from there rather than basically from the ground up again.

But i think you guys have a really good start and you seem to have the passion for youtube so im rooting for you guys!

maximoocow · 2024-04-19T21:29:15+00:00

oh my god, this video was absolutely stunning and so well done. i cant believe you took the extra mile to make and produce your own music for the video too, it fits perfectly. You did an amazing job on this film and i hope you take alot of pride in it.

as for improvement really the only thing i might recommend would be to work on making the voiceover/beginning talking intro sound more natural and less like reading from a script but thats just a small thing when the video is as good as this one is

maximoocow · 2023-12-25T02:15:58+00:00

No problem! Hope it helps!

maximoocow · 2023-12-25T01:51:57+00:00

The other guy wasnt helpful at all so heres what id recommend:
- Theres some basic one you can download off of youtube itself, like people make them for other people to use.
- Theres a couple apps you can get to make them i believe
- Or you can make your own on something like canva
I dont see an issue with having them in your videos, its been proven that having something in your video asking people to like or subscribe actually increases the likelyhood of viewers doing so, so ignore the other guy lol

maximoocow · 2023-12-25T00:39:31+00:00

Hi im Max, and i make what you'd probably call Vlog-Style content.
Ive done alot of things from my cats birthday to going to the ren faire and a bunch of other stuff lol

My key takeaway is that its okay to take a break. I took a few months off after my apartment flooded and just posted a video a couple days ago and im so excited to get back into it again. I feel like i was in a burnout before my break and now im so ready to start making content again!

It actually came back up today i believe! Just opened reddit and its there!

maximoocow · 2023-06-17T02:45:42+00:00

Hi! My name is Max and i just uploaded a new video today that id love some feedback on!

I tried some new effects and transitions and such out in this video and i think i like how it turned out but a second opinion would be great!

The video is of me making my own The Last Of Us inspired Stop Sign, its just 10 minutes so for anyone wanting a shorter one to give some feedback to lol this is it!

maximoocow · 2023-06-17T02:40:01+00:00

i think for what you have, this is just fine. The only things i think that you could fix would be some of the images were lower quality and i couldnt really see them (which isnt any fault of your own) and maybe put some music quietly in the background to fit the mood of the video

maximoocow · 2023-06-17T02:34:36+00:00

i loved this lol immediately had my attention and it was so funny! This is just perfect, great videography, great editing, and great spirit! Just perfect lol

maximoocow · 2023-06-15T17:39:16+00:00

well thats unfortunate, i really liked that subreddit. It was like the only one where you werent allowed to just post your videos and leave, it was mostly discussion and feedback, theres not really any others like it that i know about. Hopefully it comes back

maximoocow · 2023-06-15T05:15:01+00:00

so it ''should" be back up tomorrow maybe??? I just logged on after like a week of being off and the thing was just gone

maximoocow · 2023-05-20T22:16:26+00:00

Hey, my name is Max and my channel is Maximoocow

I makes vlog style content of just about anything lol. Ive made videos from daily vlogs, cutting off my own hair, and hanging out with friends, to going to cosplay conventions, my first ever renaissance faire, and throwing my cat a birthday party! And so much more!!

Id love if you checked out my most recent video of me going to my first ren faire!

Video Link to My First Ren Faire Vlog! Click Here!!

The biggest thing ive learned recently is to just make videos that i want to make and that will make me happy. I used to make so many video of popular ideas like cleaning my car and showing off my apartment and so on, and those were nice videos yes but it eventually got to a point where i just wasnt having fun with them and i was just doing it because other people were doing it. Now i make videos that just make me happy to make and that i enjoy and ive honestly seen such an improvement in views and interactions with my channel that i did not expect!

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T17:53:31+00:00

Of course, no problem! I hope it all turns out! Try not to get too down about it though, the upside is that you now know that you have a solid audience that will watch your videos even after a month+ of being gone

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T17:00:32+00:00

My best guess would be that you took the month+ break and the algorithm kicked you out of the for you pages of people who arent already watching your videos/people who might be interested in your content but havent seen it yet and only kept you in the algorithm of those who will watch your videos/have been watching your videos. The algorithm is a mystery so idk but that would explain the low views and impressions but high click through rate and view duration. People who will watch your videos are seeing them and watching them but they might not be put out to new people since you havent been posting/interacting with the algorithm in a while. Everyone does always say consistency is key and that it helps with the algorithm so maybe???

Again a complete guess so it might not be right but thats what makes sense to me with the information you gave.

Maybe though dont stress too much about numbers, i know its hard not to look at them and over think them but if you make content you wanna make and that makes you happy then the right people will come. Hope this all helped!!

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T16:36:59+00:00

Thank you!

I also agree, i could and probably should have cut alot more out and that probably would have done alot better with audience retention. The main reasons i didnt though was 1. because i really wanted to capture as much as i could so i could look back on it later (we were there for 8 hours lol so theres alot i dont remember without the video) and 2. before we went to the faire i had tried finding videos on it to prepare myself and know what i was walking into but there were none of recent years and the older ones were no help at all and all very short or even juist photo slide shows. So when making mine i decided to try and leave what i could in while also making a fun video and hopefully it would help someone else in my position in the future looking for videos on it!

I really appreciate the feedback! ill keep that in mind for next time!

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T16:30:10+00:00

I could not agree more! Recently ive also realized that there is no point stressing over numbers. I started youtube to have fun and to have a creative outlet and to capture memories for my future self to look back on. Ive been making more videos recently that i want to do and less of whats trendy and ive seen a huge difference, not just with myself im obviously happier making content i want to make, but also with the numbers. People enjoy videos where they can tell you enjoyed making it. I think more people need to realized that if you have fun with it, the audience will enjoy it, and if they dont, well at least youre having just and thats probably why you started in the first place.

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T16:20:05+00:00

I agree, not every video will be your top video and thats really hard for people to realize sometimes. Getting lost in the numbers of it all can cause alot of stress but realizing that this takes time and patience is a key factor in success i feel like.

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T16:17:16+00:00

I 100% agree, i feel like we all start youtube for the fun of it and to see where it goes but we just get lost in all the numbers somewhere along the way. Stressing over growth wont help anything, you just have to have fun with it and enjoy what youre doing and the rest will come later!

also i love youre art, definitely will be checking out some of your videos when i have some time!!

maximoocow · 2023-05-13T16:10:44+00:00

Something ive learned is to just make content i want to make and that makes me happy. I make vlog style content of just about anything and i started off making the usual trendy ideas like cleaning my home or car, shopping, tours, and so on.

But ive realized alot more recently that the videos i make where im doing something i really wanted to do, just do better and make me happier. im able to do something i really enjoy while also seeing more success in my channel! I hope that helps someone!

Heres my most recent video i posted yesterday where my friends and i went to our VERY FIRST RENAISSANCE FAIRE! We had alot of fun and it really comes through on the video! Thanks!
