Loving YTtalk
Sometimes when im looking at my channel I just feel down I love making videos and editing but I feel like maybe my voice isnt good or my audio levels arnt good enough and I just sometimes feel like I want to quit is that normal?
 
Hi, I've moved this to the YouTube Chat, Gossip and Help forum. :)

When I was starting out, listening to my voice was one of the hardest things I could do, and even to this day I cringe when hearing it when editing, etc. To you, your voice might sound bad, I was the same, but that's just us, we don't like our own voices. :D

As for your audio levels I would certainly look into settings, equipment. :D

And yes, it is perfectly normal, but don't! Continue going and you'll improve, practice makes perfect after all. :smug:
 
Very normal, even big YouTubers go trough that. You just take a step back, collect yourself and get back at it. You can not ride the high without having a bit of a low at times!
 
Of course it is normal to feel down every now and then! We are human! The whole point of doing this (at least for me) is to see improvement, so don't get flustered when you make a mistake or miss something. That just gives you something else to improve on!
 
When I start having those anxiety issues of not being good enough I like to take a look at old old videos from my favorite YouTubers and the people that inspire me. Not everyone starts out on top, there is no such thing as authentic over night success unless success is just doing the things you want to do, no one begins with the best equipment available on the market and no one is perfect.

Totally normal!! I have never liked how I look, or act, or my voice. But when I watch my videos back I realized that it doesn't really even sound like me...so I just think of it as being someone else to get thru it lol :)
 
Sorry but there are way too many of these "should I quit?" threads in this forum and now everyone seems to be starting one. They don't achieve anything at all. The main forum is for YouTube chat, gossip or general help. From now on these low value threads will be locked or deleted.

To everyone who feels like this:

If you don't enjoy YouTube, then yes you should quit. Why do something you hate?!

If you are looking for general advice for how to improve, then check out the strategy / technique forum. ( http://yttalk.com/forums/strategies-technique-advice.14/ ) There's loads of advice there for how to improve.

If you're looking for specific advice for your channel based on your existing channel or videos, then please ask for a review in the review forum. (http://yttalk.com/forums/reviews-channel-feedback.64/ ) If your thread complies with the review forum rules (at the top of the review forum), then it will be approved by a member of staff.
