While you have used the "Price is Right"/"GTA" typeface, at least you have kept it consistent across your entire channel -thumbnails, channel art, avatar, everything. That's great from a branding perspective.

Your vocal audio isn't as crisp and clear as it could be but that can be helped by investing in a decent microphone or at least recording audio in a room with a lot of items to supress the reverb.

In your very first video you mentioned that you know what you're doing and it shows. Clean up the audio and keep a frequent upload schedule and you'll succeed.

For a vlogging style channel like yours you need good, consistent audio. With the "Valentines Day Bowls" video, you're barely audible which is a complete constrast to your "New Years Resolutions 2016" video where not only can you hear both people speaking but the air conditioner running as well.

Focus is another issue. In the "Shelf Organization 2015" video, Kenn is completely out of focus in the intro which looks really unprofessional and the same issue is present in the "Mall Haul November 2015" video.

If you can, save up some cash and invest in either a shotgun microphone for your camera or lavalier/lapel mics to wear when recording. It'll help isolate your vocals while knocking out the background noise. I'd also suggest having someone help out pulling the focus in some of the shots.

From a branding perspective, fonts/typefaces are all over the place and there's not a consistent "theme" of sorts. The "label-maker" style in some of your thumbnails is suitable, especially with your DIY videos but you should use that as the basis of your channel branding. Your avatar, channel header and future thumbnails should be treated with the same text styling to give that DIY/label-maker look.

Thank you very much for the feedback. Glad to hear that my sound has improved. That one was annoying me a lot. Will work on the rest of your feedback.

Already reviewed your channel earlier in this thread but I'll re-post the review here (with additional notes):

Art for your avatar and channel banner is great, although you should think about incorporating art from your intro sting into it, along with your thumbnails and the outro. Consistency is key here. The intro sting is absolutely fantastic and it's a shame that the art, colours and that overall style aren't being used within the channel banner, avatar outro stings and all of your social media. What you have with the intro sting in your new videos needs to be expanded upon. THAT should be your brand. (NOTE: I now realise after reviewing another channel in this thread that your logo sting is a template. Nevertheless, my point still remains - keep everything consistent.)

Audio in your later videos is also really top notch, although you need to invest in a pop filter to knock out those plosives (you can hear the 'pop' like sound whenever you say words starting with B and P). Audio mixing needs work too; your Humble Bundle roundup video had your audio fading out too early with the outro blasting in volume after, and your Left 4 Dead 2, Soma and Killing Floor 2 videos had your audio peaking.

Clean up the audio issues, take the art, colours and overall style from your intro sting and apply it everywhere on your channel and social media and your channel will do well.
 
Hey, I would love a channel review. Also the 1 day of me not making videos its not an inconsistency problem its just me trying to get ahead of the game upload wise because I usually only have time to make uploads at like 1am and im attempting to upload during the day.

For a vlog channel your camera quality is spot on, audio quality is decent and the videos are well edited. No doubt you've improved since your very first video; the last 6 being the best of the best.

From a branding perspective you've hit the nail on the head. Again, the last 6 videos are the best not only in terms of quality but also in terms of thumbnail design. Font/typeface is consistent with your channel header and overall branding.

Really my only criticism is that you tend to move around a lot which throws off the focus of your camera. Not that big of a deal since it's only in a few select places and sometimes even adds to the entertainment value.

Overall, well done! I'm absolutely impressed with what you have and you're already seeing success with the channel. It'll only grow from here so keep it up!
 
Hey! id really appreciate it if youd check out mine :) its got a lot of work done on it, and needs a lot more, but what do you think i can improve?
