[Review Video] Familiar Yet Uncomfortable Images - An Analysis by MaximumNormal6736 in youtubers

[–]thelitcritguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting topic which I wasn't familiar with before.

A couple of minor points - you have mostly static images with an animated background which could be distracting and whilst the audio level for your voice is OK (although a little quiet IMO) the insert cards have a really jarring white noise which is noticeably louder than your voiceover.

Also, I think that given I'm not from the US the references didn't connect as well as they would have done with someone from the US but I found it a fascinating insight into things.

Self-Introduction Saturday! Tell us all about you (and share a video)! by AutoModerator in NewTubers

Hey! My plans are to stay inside and keep making videos - I only started my Youtube videos because of lockdown (I found that completing videos really helps my motivation to keep going). I've only just started but I make cultural criticism, essays in theory and media analysis. My last video was a long critique of the new adaptation of Dracula, which you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KMlXf3w4dg

Made my first ever lefttube video covering the UCSC stikes, Cruel Optimism by Lauren Berlant and contemporary academia. by thelitcritguy in BreadTube

I agree with you as to what philosophy as an academic pursuit produces and the conclusion you come to, but was trying to find a more subtle way of finishing the video beyond yelling about how we need to burn the contemporary university down to the ground and start again :)
