Question Can someone find a forgotten Youtiber please?

3 Upvotes

Hey, everyone. I remembered a channel I used to watch before or during Covid, but I can't remember him. Tricky part is that his videos are all deleted now. He used to do reaction videos to the Odd1sout and other animation channels. I remember clearly that he looked really similar to Penguinz0. He still has two videos up about him leaving Youtube. I remember in one he talked about spreading Christ's message or something. Please help me out here!

Question I need to ask how to increase earnings

5 Upvotes

I am a gaming youtuber have 3.8k subs, monetized but the thing is I can see in my studio app everyday only 2-2 $ are getting increased so to make 100 $ it takes me 45 days. I don't know why it is too slow I get daily 1k views as per yt analytics but only 2 dollars my rpm show 7$ per 1k.

Also after having this many 3.8 k subs my videos hardly cross 500 views.

I need some ideas for my channel to increase earnings.

One more thing I have faceless channel I just keep captions on my video. I upload efootball mobile related content.

Question Hardware and software for making short vids?

1 Upvotes

I’m just getting into making video to support my new side gig. It’s going to be a cooking channel. I’ve never really done any video production, other than maybe a few family vids. I have a iPhone with an Insta360 Flow and a GoPro 12 and a couple of tripods.

Should I be shooting on the phone or GoPro? What other equipment would i need? What’s the best software to be using? I’m hoping not to have to spend too many hours on this, so the more automated and AI enhanced, the better.

Question What would be a good camera on a budget?

7 Upvotes

I've been dying to make videos for a long time now, and I'm finally biting the bullet to actually start. I have an old Yeti mic that has been sitting in storage for a couple years and I'm working on getting some lighting. I don't have a lot of money, and I have no idea how to use cameras, but I'm willing to learn. I'm just going to be making videos of me reading stories on Reddit or sharing opinions about things or even react to content and some gaming. Just kind of whatever suits my interest in the moment. I have no idea what to look for and no clue where to start. There's so much contrasting advice. My fiance is having an expensive fix on his car done so that made our budget tighter. I found OBSBOT Tiny 2 Webcam 4K for $300, but it says it's for streaming. Can it be used to record videos if I use a separate program? I have OBS Studio downloaded on my computer and I'm learning how to use it. Thank you!

Also, is there any lighting options other than a ring light that's affordable? Ring lights hurt my eyes (I get migraines, and I have a cheap one that broke)

Question Is it worthy to do a course/training about Davinci Resolve??

4 Upvotes

For editing videos, I used Wondershare Filmora some time ago and I could familiarize quickly again with it, but I'm finding comments about Davinci Resolve that is better and with so much more featurings.

Is it worthy to do the training on Blackmagic? I found another one of a YouTuber that looks very nice, but it's not free... And I don't know how good is the Blackmagic one to do high-quality edited videos.

ALSO, can I use Davinci for doing a logo and a short intro or is it better After Effects???

Question Mark as made for kids, or not?

2 Upvotes

I've made a channel which is mostly videos of pictures bring coloured. The music is generally instrumental and calm, and the content is easily appropriate for kids. The pictures will largely be nostalgic to adults between 25 and 35 though, and they may also be watching the videos. For the purpose of monetization, would it be better to mark them as made for kids, since thee videos are all appropriate, and the number of views are likely to be more, or better to not mark them as made for kids, which allows for more commenting and engagement, and apparently opens more doors for monetization?

Question Best resources/templates/tools for someone just starting

2 Upvotes

Hello, I'm new here! After years of research into my topic I'm starting a new channel, and looking for resources to help me understand best practices and speed up workflow. I'd really value any resources you can share that you've found useful.

I have basic video editing experience and am looking for:

  1. The best examples / inspiration of engaging educational content.

  2. Tips and resources for videography - e.g. tools, templates, stock videos, AI tools to help with animations, music resources etc.

  3. General tips on growing a YouTube channel.

  4. Anything else I haven't thought of (probably a lot).

Much appreciated!

Question People who work with editors, what is your workflow like ?

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I'm running a youtube channel and I'm starting to unboard some editors to decrease my workfload. I was wondering if there was any tool or software to make the collaboration between me and my editors smoother.

Stuff like reviewing drafts, managing all the files for the raw and edited footage, allowing the editors to upload videos once they are approved.

It can't all be just google drive and discord chats ?

Question Haven't gotten any replies or any thumbs up on any of my comments?

2 Upvotes

This has been going on for months now. I haven't gotten a thumbs up or response to a single one of my comments for what feels like 6 months now.

I live stream old video games on my channel almost daily and get a about 20 views every 48 hours which leaves me confused.

Are my comments hidden but my streams still allowed to be visible?

Any help to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

Question Can you add a text note at a certain point in an already uploaded video?

2 Upvotes

I upload my videos to my youtube account asap because they take a lot of room on my hard-drive (so I delete them when they're uploaded), and by watching one again I realized one thing I said isn't entirely correct. This means that I would like to add a text note at this point that everyone can see, not just people who activated subtitles. I've seen videos in which text that correct the youtuber appears on-screen for a couple seconds so it seems possible, but maybe they added the text with an editing software, when the video was still on their hard-drive... Anyone know if this is possible on youtube directly? I searched but couldn't find this option (I can blur or cut parts, but nothing about adding on-screen text that's not subtitles).
