The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

[TheRedTieGuy]

Greetings YTtalk Forums people! Recently I introduced myself in the Introduction section, so head on over there and have a look if you want to know a bit about me.

Recently I created an introduction to my Channel, which basically breaks down what my Channel is about:

The Good:
What did you enjoy about the Introduction and my Channel and what do you think I should focus on more?

The Bad:
Well, there isn't an easy way to say this - what did you dislike? What should I remove or drastically change?

The Ugly:
What should I improve upon? Was there certain aspects that just didn't match?

Honesty is much appreciated - any criticism is good criticism. I do this channel for fun and because I enjoy making it. It is the biggest reason why I started it in the first place.

My camera quality will increase as I recently acquired a new camera. Speaking up and clearly is something I'm improving on and after my Exams, I'll produce much more content. I'd like to thank you in advance for taking the time in looking at my Intro and Channel.

How. Did. You. Make. THAT?!?! That is brilliant! I love it soo much!

I think that you could perhaps include some images of yourself maybe waving as the images go past?

But wow, I loved that. That's all.

I don't even need to say anymore.

Perhaps your unboxing of your PS4 was not needed. There's loads of those and unless you really promote your videos and are really popular, then I'm afraid nobody will see that. If you did it later down the line (which I know is impossible), then your subs would see it. But hey ho. Do what YOU like. In saying that, I like your unboxings though.

Cool channel bro! You're onto a winner here!

@TheEpicmanLives12 Thank you so much for the feedback! In my introduction on the forums I mentioned I studied animation and design, so I do know a thing or two about Adobe products and 3D Modelling. In short, I used to work at a Design company and was able to purchase Adobe licenses that they didn't use at a very good price. So win there

My intro was pretty simple as I used some stock footage as well, thus making it easier. As mentioned, my Exams limited my time. As soon as that is done, I'll be creating a better Intro trailer. It's just something a mashed together to have I guess. Also, I did my research properly about content allowed to be uploaded (royalty free music) and where to obtain the source material. All the footage displayed on the laptop, phone and tablet is my own. Except the music - but as I said, royalty free from sites giving free music. Quick Google Search will give you tons.

I sort of felt the same about my PS4 Unboxing as it was recorded a while back. I just never uploaded it and there are tons of them. Too many in fact. I'm doing it because I love it and if people sub me because they want to see more then hey, that is awesome! I love meeting new people here and seeing their content, ideas and feedback. That is the whole reason in joining these forums.

Thank you again for that last sentence! Made my day. I'll be adding myself to my videos soon, if that makes sense?

Be patient, keep working hard and stay positive!

Thanks so much! Taking some of your tips and words and applying them to my channel. Thanks so much!

Thank you for the kind words! I'm hoping to improve my Channel a lot in the coming months, receive feedback (good and bad off course).

Thanks! I'd love to discuss our channels further if you liked! We're both growing and things so it could be useful!

I'd like that - giving constant feedback. I'm going through your videos, at a slow pace because I should be studying Economics lol so forgive me for taking time. Maybe in the future we can do a gameplay video together?

That'd be ace! Hope you like my content.

That'd be ace! Hope you like my content.

Those Minecraft swag is just incredible! I wish I could get it locally. I enjoyed your Channel Intro - it's short, to the point and not all over the place. I've seen so many people that have 3-5-10 minute channel trailers and honestly, you want to keep it shorter than 1:30 max. The same with actual video intro's. You don't want to sit through 30 seconds before the video begins....

That being said, I'm looking forward to uploading more content soon as I've got lots of ideas.
