I'd request a review too please,go on!
We have joined very recently and we are aware that we have not that much fancy amount of videos but we're working hard everyday.
The main thought behind our channel is just to provide music to all and eventually use it in their videos,we have to do it,we won't give up ever,we want to build a strong ,active and interactive fanbase,we're still far from that but we believe that we will do that someday.

I would like some feedback as well! I am swedish and I think it is so hard to try to be yourself while you talk another language. But I really want to keep doing youtube videos ,I Love it!
 
Hi man! That's probably what this forum made for.
Thanks for your offer.
For me I think for now it is the amount of videos I have (I make music). Maybe I need to think about my thumbnails.
I don't know. Thanks for your help.
Bless you brother
I’m very impressed by what you’ve put together musically. It has the crispness that comes with programming and software, but it’s also clear that you’re playing parts live as well. It’s a good mix of tidy electronic music and organic, human art. Here are some other thoughts after spending a good amount of time on your channel.

- I like the cool backgrounds you pick. They give me things to think about while I listen both when the images seem to align with what’s happening musically, and when they don’t.

- I know it’s nitpicky, but I think a more interesting font choice might make your videos seem more appealing. The font seems underwhelming over the top of the cool backgrounds.

- I very much like the musical piece you picked for you channel intro video. It drew me in and made me interested in what you’re doing and how you’re doing it.

- I think you might get some more traction if that channel video gave visitors a peak at you. You’re the star of the channel, but I think you’re underselling yourself. The music is a good draw, but lots of people make music. What makes this music interesting and special is that you made it and that you have a personality, a philosophy, a set of values, a screen presence, and a vibe that’s all your own. Music channels benefit from highlighting that.

- I don’t know what kind of equipment you have access to, but doing some hard single-edge lit stuff in black and white against a black background that doesn’t fully reveal you or your craft would be mysterious and intriguing. You don’t need to tell us about yourself with words if you don’t want to, but at least giving us a glimpse into your world as an artist would go a long way.

- Your channel is original and cool. It has a nice chill vibe that might be good to highlight; let people know with subtle visual cues like thumbnails and channel art that they’re in for a relaxing no-rush experience. Hint that your channel would be a good one to throw on in the background, or, heck, don’t hint, just come right out and suggest it.

I like what you’re doing and I respect your talent. I’ll check back in down the road to see how everything is shaping up for you. Great work.

you're the man. I very very appreceate your addvice and your opinon.
A few questions:
  • What font do you mean? the channel banner or what?
  • I didn't quite get this point: "hard single-edge lit stuff in black and white against a black background that doesn’t fully reveal you or your craft would be mysterious and intriguing." do you mean my profile picture?
My thank you comes from heart. And I will do my best to solve these "problems"
All the best and god bless you ;)


I few days ago I tried out this:

Do you thing that is the wrong/right direction?

Hey I think this offer is really nice and it seems like you're just doing some overall reviews on channels and that's kind of what I'm looking for. I'm new to youtube so anything you have to say would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the reply and for your graciousness in receiving my feedback. In answer to your questions, I was talking about the plain white font in your videos that is used for the name of the musical piece. I do like the way your profile picture is lit and I think something like that would make for a cool intro video. Here's a teaser for a racing documentary that my team put together - it's not quite analogous, but hopefully it gives you an idea of what I'm picturing.



I do like the new look of the additional video you posted, and finally, I wouldn't call what you have to work on "problems". Your stuff looks and sounds good; what you have is opportunities to keep getting better just like the rest of us.
Take care,

nice channel yourself! you have a great backdrop for your subject, I wish I had a lovely library like that :)

I'd appreciate some feedback if possible. I'm thinking of changing my icon and channel banner to a newer version when I next upload, and I'm sort of on the fence about text in my thumbnails or not, but Id be happy with any little feedback if you have the time.
Thanks :D
Hi Lightsen,
Thanks for your patience with me. If I'm going to review someone's channel, I want to take the time to do it well. I've been spending time on your page tonight and I can see why you're doing so well. Your animation is fun and of quality. I'm particularly impressed with your framing and image design. Your pieces have developed an increasingly cinematic quality over the years that really grabs the viewer's attention and makes your jokes hit harder to. The sheer quality of your content is the reason you're getting views and subs.
With humility I'd suggest that the look of your channel page, your thumbnails, and your page brand could use some refining to strengthen the overall effectiveness of what you have going. My biggest critique is that it isn't obvious enough to a visitor what it is that you do. I'm a gamer and have been for long enough to catch all the references you're throwing out in your animations, so I have no gripes with your content. Once a viewer catches on, they'll be ready to roll with you, but right now the theme of your channel may not be clear enough. A strong tag line, a crystal clear "About" page, channel art that creatively tells the viewer what you do, and possibly even a subtitle tagged on to your existing title could all help with this. A channel intro video that shows highlights of your best stuff like a trailer might help too. I think your thumbnails are fine, but again, images that more strongly communicate the tone, theme, and humor style of each video could only help. If you can find a way to unify all the great stuff you have under one easy-to-understand theme or brand I think it will really help you attract more newcomers in a hurry.
You're clearly super talented and your stuff is great. You're channel is cooking and you have a great following, so ignoring everything I just threw out might be the best play :), but I think you have the foundation for a channel that could really take off with a few tweaks and a steadier stream of content.
I'm impressed and wish you the very best.
Thanks,
Matt

So you don't think this new audio visualizing concept is a bit distructing?
Thanks you I maybe already got something in mind for a cool short intro.

Firstly, thank you so much for taking the time to thorougly review my channel, I really appreciate it so much! :)

I will definitely be refreshing my page's look, and I hadn't thought about tag line, or making it super clear, so I'll be taking all that into consideration when I redesign the banner and icon etc. Im saving this on my desktop to refer to when redesigning, and I'll let you know in future when it's all done :) thank you again for all your help! :D
 
I'd love a review. My goal is to be a family-friendly gamer with content that everyone would feel comfortable watching, and I'm not sure if I'm succeeding. Any tips would be extremely helpful.
I just finished reviews for the three channels before you, and I've started looking at your material this morning. I'll try to have a review up for you later today. Thanks for your patience with me.
