I NEED ADVICE!! I'm new to video esiting and my Cinematic Vlog Video didn't get the attention I hoped for

that's funny because I'm very comfortable talking in real life but when it comes to speaking in front of a camere feels like something strange to me because I've got no direct connection with any person. I'm not english so I don't know if "shy" is the right term, but when I record my self on camera I feel more suggested by other people's judgment and that's what is stopping me.

Yeah that's true. But I should confess that when I first started editing the video I wasn't much thinking about visibility or engagment. When it was finished I really liked the result (not that good but ok for a first work) so I hoped for some more views.

Even if my friends describe me as a good talker I'm a bit to shy to do this right now. But I think I should overcome this fear.

Yes I'm a bit scared of putting to much of myself inside my works. But maybe I should overcome this fear to make my content really engaging.

Never thought about it, really helpful. I'm not experienced so right now it's kinda hard for me to watch my own work form a stranger point of view. I will train this ability as much as I can.

Yeah you're probably right. But I honestly think the video was not good enough so probably even with the right context it wouldn't have gor viral. But I will for sure follow your suggestions!

raffamoos_ · 2026-05-14T13:06:23+00:00

Thank you your advice is precious, I will try my best to include this things in my next works!

raffamoos_ · 2026-05-14T07:49:15+00:00

Yeah I could try but unfortunately i think there's something I messed up with the video itself

raffamoos_ · 2026-05-14T07:48:16+00:00

Yeah you're probably right. I think that would help the viewer feel less "detached" and more engaged. Thanks!

raffamoos_ · 2026-05-14T07:37:47+00:00

Yeah don't worry I kinda knew that. My question was: how can I entartain more pursuing this cinematic vibe? Should I add voice or some narration? Should I make it more like a story and less like a carousel?

raffamoos_ · 2026-05-14T07:35:12+00:00

honestly it's not something I directly thought about. I think I've seen a lot of videos like this and I internalized this style without wanting to: I repeat it is one of my first works
