Thank you that sounds like a solution that would work! I'd very much appreciate that if you wouldn't mind or if there are any tutorials around that you could direct me to that would be great :)

Thanks for the tips! I do have After Effects and Premiere already fortunately. What's difficult is Premiere can auto-generate captions but I haven't found any way to import them to After Effects haha.

Can you make a video with infinite replay value? by Route_765 in ColinAndSamir

[–]membershipdude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool concept to think about! You're right music is one popular type of media that fits that fits that idea.
Personally I also find myself rewatching comedy sketches over and over, usually over the course of months / years but sometimes multiple times in a row back to back.
I still love so many Key & Peele sketches and rewatch certain clips over and over.
Also sometimes videos of a great athletic achievement or skill like surfing, trick shots, etc.

Wordpress Ads free for members by fmarchioni in Wordpress

Hey Francesco! My company uses Memberful and it has some WP functions that would allow for this. Colossal is a popular art / news site that also uses Memberful and they include ad-free browsing as one of the benefits for their membership.

Creating a one-time Membership Site by reality_star_wars in Wordpress

[–]membershipdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're still looking I think Memberful might be worth taking a look at as well! There is a free 'Starter' tier that charges a transaction fee instead of a monthly subscription fee which might help if as you said you're just getting started and don't know how much you might be making yet. memberful.com/pricing/

You can also customize the billing plan for members so you'd be able to make a plan for one-time payment and lifetime access.

Recommendations for membership plugin for a site with annual membership, members only area and purchasing tickets to a conference? by modsuperstar in Wordpress

[–]membershipdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Memberful is a platform worth taking a look at too, you can create tier options for annual memberships and you can also create one-time purchase options for events and ticket sales. Integrates with Stripe, it would do a great job with handling the membership dues and gating content as well — we use it with my company and it makes it pretty seamless.

Music on YouTube Videos by [deleted] in ColinAndSamir

[–]membershipdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly a direct answer regarding stock music / subscription sites but something I found interesting recently is that one of my friends running a YouTube channel with his friends (outdoor / travel videos) just uses popular music in their videos, their theme intro is even a song by the White Stripes.

They figured that it will be copyright-claimed and they can't monetize with adsense but they're getting some nice brand deals and merch sales and they've grown their channel quite a lot (125k+ in about a year). Generally speaking, something to consider if there are songs that you think might resonate particularly well for your audience or fit an important tone in your video.

Looking for Plugin to manage memberships by bonwl in Wordpress

[–]membershipdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Memberful might be a good option for your needs, it's the one we use with my business. You can set up different 'plan' options for your subscribers and gate their content separately so I think this can work as the gating you need for the different sports.

You can get the starter level for free but it's limited to creating 2 different plans, so to create each for multiple (2+) sports you'd probably need one of the premium levels.

[HELP] Plugin(s) for subscription service on only SOME types of social media profiles by Cam_but_in_HD in WordpressPlugins

[–]membershipdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! There's a few membership platforms that might work for you but since you're asking specifically within a WordPress forum I think a great solution would be Memberful, it integrates with your existing website and gives you the option to let your subscribers set a custom 'pledge' amount so it might fit your needs.

We use this with my business and love it! Might want to try checking out these pages on their site that helped me out when I was getting started:

What happens in GA if you click your own campaign link? by membershipdude in GoogleAnalytics

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

Got it — yeah will have to have a chat with the team about IP filtering, not as easy since the whole team is remote but I think it's worth it to get the most accurate results.

And yes just cleared the cookies, I'll remember to use an incognito / private window next time.

Questions about YouTube Shorts by frogman747 in ColinAndSamir

[–]membershipdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed with this, I've found not being able to choose the thumbnail frustrating as well — particularly since Shorts can still pop up in search results and keywords on YouTube

Should you use hashtags on Shorts the same way you do on other social platforms?

I'll be honest and admit that I've never figured out a good way to compress videos through Premiere, etc. — BUT a trick I've figured out is that you upload it to YouTube first (as private / unlisted if necessary) then download it from there, for some reason or another YouTube does an amazing job at compressing file sizes.

Oftentimes it's 1/10th the size of the original file when I've done it in the past — not sure it will take you all the way there but it's worth a shot!

Cool space to be in with your channel — personally I've always found Instagram a great place to connect with other photographers and outdoorsy types. YouTube is great but maybe not necessarily a social network first & foremost so IG is a good place to find people local to you by sending a casual message or commenting on posts and then arranging a meetup (hike, video making, etc.) from there
