Free Reviews!

Ok so here's how this will work. I will review your channel based on the following:
1. Banner/logo
2. Thumbnail/s
3. Audio
4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
5. Summary
And anymore I can think of.

Oh and if you have the time, I'd appreciate a review of mine in return. THANKS!!
I would love a review! I wont take it the wrong way.
 
Can you review my first video?
Wow! You have 48 subs with only one video? Damn...wish I had that kind of publicity :P
1. Banner/logo
I like your banner alot actually. Keeps it simple and too the point and blends in well with your logo. I suppose, you could try adding a small blurb or something stating what you exactly do on your channel. But, if you've seen mine, this is really about preference. Same goes for your logo.

2. Thumbnail/s
Since you've only made one video. You have time to work on your thumbnails. You should take some inspiration from other v-logging channels. They often put dynamic and large text with their thumbnails, explaining what the video is about. This can bring more attention to your channel. I posted a video about this on the same thread (not mine) so you should consider checking that out and direct it towards vlogging channels.

3. Audio
You're audio is fine. I can interpret you pretty clearly. Perhaps it's a little echoey but that's hard to fix without fleshing out for a very expensive audio device, plus you don't really need it. You should however, try to fix, the background noise. At higher volumes, it's prevalent throughout the entire video. Research audio editing that work to rectify this. Otherwise, it's nice.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Your outro is epic. I'm working on a new one myself. Very nice. Otherwise, the format of your videos doesn't require too much editing. Once again, take a page from other v-logging channels. They do often do cuts of different sitting positions, transitioning texts, all that. This is up to you.

5. Summary
Otherwise, a very good start. Just stay focused on what you're doing and stay true to yourself! Good luck and if you have the time, review mine![DOUBLEPOST=1396263233,1396262089][/DOUBLEPOST]
Hey, I am fairly new and wouldnt mind a review :D
Thank you in advance :)
1. Banner/logo
Holy crap, you're banner is awesome. It's eye-catching and gives poeple an insight into your routine. Your logo doesn't really scream cubes, in my opinion, but otherwise nice.

2. Thumbnail/s
Thumbnail wise I think you're pretty good. I can see you put quite an effort into them, well done. Just be sure to streamline it so it doesn't have too much stuff in it.

3. Audio
Going by your recent video, I think this is an area you need to work on. I can understand what you say most of the time, but the audio quality could be better. I suggest investing in a more higher quality microphone or more advanced audio editing tools.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
You have quite a proficiency in editing. You use various transitions and cuts and have a great intro (what do you use? :P). I will say that you should try reducing the size of the custom subscribe/like button you made that pops up at the bottom left. It's a little bit too intrusive for my taste. Perhaps just stick with annotations or downsize it. I think you also need to film in areas with slightly better lighting or add more lights. I can see the cubes just fine, but the background is pretty dark. Also you have black bars on the side of your video. This needs to be fixed, in my opinion, I suggest you look into this and resize your videos.

5. Summary
You have most of the things nailed. You just need some work in the audio and video department, in my opinion. They do require money but if you're serious about youtube, it's money well spent. Good luck! And review my channel if you can![DOUBLEPOST=1396264112][/DOUBLEPOST]
Why the flippity flop not. I'll take a review.
1. Banner/logo
You banner is overall pretty good. You could try to make the 'vlogs and comedy' text a little bigger but otherwise there's no real issues here since it's all very, very subjective. Take a look at other v-log channels and take inspiration from them if you need to.

2. Thumbnail/s
Nothing inherently wrong here, either. But you should try and differentiate yourself from other v-logging channels. If you, want you could add texts in your thumbnails that explain the video a little and once again take inspiration from other similar channels.
I posted a vid about this on the same thread too.

3. Audio
Your audio is very nice. I can hear you (and your dad) very well and the music is non-intrusive. This will only improve if you choose to upgrade your kit later on. Well done.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Your editing is also very well done. You use various transitions that keep the flow of the video. Once again, try adding more pictures/text that relate to your video. You already do this, but try to take it to the next level. Your outro is fine too, you should think about adding social links too though and maybe a background.

5. Summary
I like the free nature of your videos and they're are genuinely enjoyable to watch, but you're gonna have to do drastic things to put yourself out there out of the many v-logging channels. Keep it up though! And review mine if you can! Or jst add me on twitter, I tend to get back to peeps on that.[DOUBLEPOST=1396265202][/DOUBLEPOST]
Please rewview mine ;)
Looks like I'm not the only one that does reviews ;)
1. Banner/logo
Your banner is pretty damn nice. Simple and intuitive. You should consider adding more information about what you do on your channel but that's up to you.
Your logo is up to your personal taste really. In fact it probably has more info than mine does so nothin to see here.

2. Thumbnail/s
You're thumbnails are pretty nice. Try to use more vibrant and bright colours for your texts though. Purple is not easy to see for a number in my opinion. And if you want more ideas, you can check the vid I posted on this thread.

3. Audio
Your audio quality is also very nice. No background noise and overall a very good quality. You should try increasing the sound of your own voice though, since you're friends sound way louder than you do. You could also think about adding more ambient music with your videos too.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
The format of your video doesn't require much editing though you should consider investing in an intro. Your outro is not bad either, but you should add some more creativity to it, in my opinion. Take inspiration from other channels.

5. Summary
An interesting venture and I can see you participate a lot on these forums. Keep it up and review mine if you can! Add me on twitter too, we are fellow reviewers after all.[DOUBLEPOST=1396266213][/DOUBLEPOST]
Made a few changes to my channel in the last day so would appreciate some comments on it :) I'll return the favour! Thanks!
1. Banner/logo
You banner and logo are overall pretty nice, aesthetically, but I feel it doesn't really reflect or give much insight on what you do on your channel. You can look into it, if you want. These sorts of things are very opinion-oriented anyway.

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails are a little all over the place but your recent movie review thumbnails look heaps good. Try to maintain that quality and add your own twist to it.

3. Audio
You seem to be very good at projecting your voice. There's plenty of emotion with each phrase. I believe you are only limited by your microphone since it doesn't seem to pick up on this and it comes of as a little obscure in my opinion. I suggest investing in a more powerful microphone and/or learn some better audio editing techniques.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Your intro is epic. Your editing consists of various cuts and keeps the overall flow of your video. Get an outro, add more text/pictures that relate to your vid as you speak....and your good to go.

5. Summary
I like the overall execution of this. It's just your mike that's holding you back in my opinion. Good luck on your future endeavours and review mine if you can!
 
1. Banner/logo
You Logo is very impressive and eye catching but you should surely work on your banner. Though it is nice, but adding some text would surely be helpful

2. Thumbnail/s
Thumbnail wise I think you're prettyawesome. I can see you put quite an effort into them, well done. Just be sure to streamline it so it doesn't have too much stuff in it and dont put the entire title in the thumbnail. Just 2 or 3 words in a thumbnail relating to your topic is fine :)

3. Audio
Going by your recent video, Your audio is pretty good but you can invest on a new mic :)

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Extremely great video editing. You timing for editing is great and have achieved quite a skill in this :)
5. Summary
You have most of the things nailed. You just need some work in the audio and video department, not much like 2% more. :)

Thanks for reviewing me and have a great day ahead :D
 
I would love a review! (I do comedy stuff :)
1. Banner/logo
Your banner is very cool. Very eye-catching and unique. For yours, I don't much info is really needed, but you can if you want to. If I was to be really cynical. I would say to add more emphasis to the matrix theme. Why not get an actual matrix background? And I suppose you could try different your text too.

I'm not too sure about your logo though. It's nice, aesthetically, but it doesn't convey much info about your channel, as it's hard to tell you do your own movie stuff, but this is really up to your preference.

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails are also very unique and eye-catching. Keep it up.

3. Audio
Your audio is also very well done. The music you use coincides well and I can hear what's going on very clearly. Well done.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Great video editing, I cannot complain at all, I can see a lot of effort goes into what you do. Your outro is also very streamlined.

5. Summary
This is one ambitious channel, it's nice to some variation with youtube channels these days. Good luck! And review mine if you can![DOUBLEPOST=1396298956,1396297878][/DOUBLEPOST]
can you please review mine my channel is https://www.youtube.com/user/XxXLongShotzXxX
1. Banner/logo
You banner is fantastic, but I feel it doesn't reflect your channel fully. I mean you do more than just batman games.
Your logo is actually quit cool. In my opinion, I feel it would be better if you got rid of the text and just enlarged the image since its very difficult to actually read what it says (at the bottom)

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails are a little all over the place. Scrolling down your video page, I see some pretty good ones, and ones that just show gameplay. I suggest you seperate the good from the bad and maintain a consistency them. I posted a video about this on this thread. You can check that, if you want.

3. Audio
You don't do commentaries and I'm not sure if you plan to. But either way, the game audio is crisp and very clear.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Interesting. You actually do edit parts of your gameplay and transition it to others. Very nice, keep that up. You should consider investing in an outro however as it could potentially drive more traffic to your channel.

5. Summary
It's good that you don't just do gameplay but as well as edit it out as well. You could consider adding commentary but that's your choice. Good luck and review mine if you have time![DOUBLEPOST=1396299123][/DOUBLEPOST]

Thanks for the review! Yes I will consider adding a bit more info to my banner in the near future. And yeah I do tend to add a fair amount of text in my thumbnails, I'll look into that. I'll be sure to work on that 2%! :p

Thanks again![DOUBLEPOST=1396301384][/DOUBLEPOST]
can you review me aswell man, it would be appreciated
1. Banner/logo
Your banner and logo are both quite nice. Don't need too much information here but you can choose to add a blurb if you want. Either way it is very eye-catching. I would consider using the banner background in your logo too, in my opinion.

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails are generally quite good but in my opinion I feel you should focus less on the left side bar and more on the text that you write since it is often obscured a little bit or difficult to read. I think your borderlands 2 ones have been better however, increase the size a little and maintain that consistency I reckon.

3. Audio
The audio is also generally very good but I am hearing some background static (borderlands 2 no.2). You should look into some audio editing techniques that fix this.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
The editing for your latest video is very well done. Various cuts and zoom is used that engage the audience. Try experimenting with more video transitions though.

5. Summary
Either way a very clean channel here, just work towards improving whenever you can. Good luck! And review mine if you can.[DOUBLEPOST=1396301540][/DOUBLEPOST]
You're free to review our channel if you want, we would appreciate it a lot ^^
Could you specify which channel you would like me to review please? Sorry for the late reply, had a job interview to screw up :P

I would love a review! I wont take it the wrong way.
Haha I hope you won't take it the wrong way! :p I'm just trying to help.
1. Banner/logo
Your banner is pretty awesome. That is the definition of eye-catching. You should consider adding a small blurb saying what you do but you don't have to. Your logo is also very nice. If I were you, I would experiment with a lighter yellow because it isn't actually golden, in my opinion. :p

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails aren't bad but you should add something showing the actual game or a picture of the game you are playing rather than a coloured background.

3. Audio
Your audio quality is generally quite good but I think you should try projecting your voice a bit more as it sounds a little quiet, in my opinion.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Your montages especially have quite a lot of video editing. Here you really need to take a page from other youtubers and see how they do it and add on to it on yours, and mix it up a bit.

5. Summary
Your channel delivers, just tweak up a few things and you're on your way. Good luck! And review mine if you can.[DOUBLEPOST=1396307002,1396302670][/DOUBLEPOST]
I would really appreciate a review of my channel :) . I'm not at home now, but I will watch your as soon as I can :-D
1. Banner/logo
A very interesting banner and logo. I don't believe either really needs any changes. If you choose to, you could add more information to what you do on your banner but otherwise both fit the feel of your channel.

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnail appear to be screenshots of the the video. While this isn't neccesserily bad. You should consider making your own custom thumbnails as it could drive more traffic to your channel. You could use pictures/texts; I posted a video about this on the same thread. Check that out if you want.

3. Audio
Audio is superb. Nothing to see here.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)v
I have not reviewed a video like yours so I'm not sure how one should edit it. The edits I see right now is very well done. You should take a page from other channels that do similarly to what you do and add your own twist to it. Otherwise, keep it up. Your outro is lovely but you should consider adding links to the texts.

5. Summary
A very unique channel. Nice to see some variation these days. Good luck! And review mine if you can.[DOUBLEPOST=1396308192][/DOUBLEPOST]
If you're still doing reviews that'd be nice if you could review me :)
I'll return the favour :)
1. Banner/logo
Your banner is very cool. I don't think that needs to change at all. I suppose you could add stuff about what you do on your channel but that's up to you. Your logo is in the same boat really.

2. Thumbnail/s
Your thumbnails are pretty creative. Try experimenting with different fonts/texts/compositions as well as use more dramatic, action pictures. I posted a vid about this on the same thread.

3. Audio
Your audio is of a fine quality, well done. I would say your intro/outro is a little too loud compared to the rest of the video though, perhaps tone it down a bit?

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
I like that you add your own editing to each video, it shows you work hard on your videos and keeps the audience engaged. Keep that up. Your outro is fine really. but you should try experimenting with different backgrounds.

5. Summary
You've been at this for a while and the experience does show in your videos. Maintain and add onto this quality. Good luck and review mine if you can![DOUBLEPOST=1396308937][/DOUBLEPOST]
Can I have a review please :)
1. Banner/logo
You banner very sleek and smooth, I like it. You could try adding more info into what your channel does, if you want. Your logo on the other hand is fantastic, nothing wrong here.

2. Thumbnail/s
I think you should maintain the kind of quality you did for the 'things I hate about youtube' vid. It was simple but it stood out. Your recent video is too cluttered in my opinion. Rather than use several pictures, use one and enlarge it to make it stand out. But that's just my opinion.

3. Audio
Your audio quality is essentially fine. But I feel you need to project your voice a bit louder and add more emotion to your vids. That, and the music you use is sometimes louder than your voice-over so you should look into that.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
It's good that you cut the music sometimes for comedic effect. You should also add pictures/more text that relate to what you say during your video. Take inspiration from other, more established, v-loggers or whatever. Your outro music is very very loud, compared to the rest of your audio but otherwise it does exactly what it does. Your main concern is that the video (latest one) does not fit the whole screen when full-screened. You need to try scaling it up in size.

5. Summary
Otherwise it is a good start, just iron out the negatives and emphasize the positives. Good luck and review mine if you can![DOUBLEPOST=1396309649][/DOUBLEPOST]
I'd love a review :3 thank you! I'll try to return the favor.
1. Banner/logo
Haha your banner is very colourful and creative though I'm not sure about the choice of colours :p. I would have chosen more brighter colours but that's just my taste. You could also give some info onto what you do on your channel on it. Your logo is fine and fits into the format of your vids, if I were to say anything bad about it that would just be discriminatory. :p

2. Thumbnail/s
I like that you use different fonts and colours for the texts of your vids. You should try different compositions too, research other v-loggers and see what they do. But otherwise, they're quite good.

3. Audio
You are very good at projecting your voice and I can see there is emotion to it. It's probably the quality of your microphone that's holding you back a little here. But it's not holding you back that far, so don't worry too much. The music you use sometimes, blends well. And the audio editing stuff is hilarious.

4. Video/s (concept,editing,etc)
Once again, very good. Different texts, different pics, good transitions....you've got it all. But, the main concern is the scale of your videos. It doesn't fit the entire screen and this can come off as unprofessional, in my opinion. Try scaling up your video in size. The Lighting in some areas also need a little work.

5. Summary
An excellent start. You put a fair amount of effort into each vid and it shows. Just the scaling and audio quality that's holding you back a little imo. Good luck! And yeah, review mine if you can :)
