SKIP THIS IF YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE READING IT:
I have been making videos (not always for youtube) for about a year and a half now. I can now say that I am experienced with working cameras, video editing software, and generating ideas. For the first year and three months, I have spent 99% of my time trying to make edits (well filmed and edited videos with music). However, I decided to try more of a vlog approach on a second channel lately. I've stayed away from these type of videos in the past because the first one I ever tried turned out so cringe and bad that I have been horrified to ever try it again. However, about 3 months ago, I felt the urge once again to try a vlog type of video.
Here are the reasons:
-I felt I might do more if I vlog
-I wanted to make more videos
-Content is king on youtube. Vlogs allow for maximum content production because they can be filmed and edited in one day
-I could eventually connect with my audience better
-I wanted to improve my talking skills
To my surprise, the video I vlogged in just one hour turned out okay. As a result, I have made 10 more mostly in the past two months or so. I am getting better at making them, and I even officially called it a vlog in my latest video. However, they are still not good. I even get bored watching them, and I have interest in everything I do obviously.
I know at this point, I want to do both vlogs and edits on youtube. However, I need to decide which one to put more effort into. I will probably pick one and put 90% of my effort into, while rarely making the other type of video. There just isn't enough time in the day to do both.

Vlog- Typically a daily video showing stuff from a persons day. Example: Casey Neistat
Edit- Usually a large amount of effort put into one video with music. Example: devinsupertramp
In your opinion, which is more entertaining to watch on youtube? Vlogs or edits? Why?
In your opinion, which is better to make? Why?
