What's my latest video like :-)

[Michael Lunatic]

Hiya everyone. This is my first real request for you guy's to check one of my video's out and give me a review and your opinion on it!

Michael's Mental Mix: Episode 2

Took about 3 months for me to film and edit it in total. It combines outtakes, Surreal comedy, spontaneous filming in my workplace and a continuous story arc about a love hate relationship between a mad man and his robot. Basically.

If you also have time it would be Kickass if you could give me feedback on my channel in general too!
What you like, what I could Improve on, anything really. I'm just interested in your opinions and whether I'm doing ok with it all.

Other videos you may like: Mental Mix: Episode 1, Michael's Impressions show, Northampton Comic-Con playlist.

Thanks everone and really looking forward to the feedback!

I have to ask this bro... what the f**k is this supposed to be about? Like lunatic you definitely nailed spot on but the whole plot and video is so disorientated it would leave a viewer puzzled and annoyed within the first minute. Like, you have no explanation whatsoever in the video of what the f**k is going on. Like, my head hurts my guy. You made me laugh like two or three times in almost five minutes... and that's cause I spent five minutes... That's not good man! I don't know really what your video is supposed to be about, the purpose and/or how it benefits me as a viewer.

I will applaud you on your amazing ability to edit, animate and use different film angles but three months of production? You've got to get faster with your production because even if this did pop off, which I doubt, someone highly interested would have to wait a quarter year for another drop...

You've got work to do and that's me being as polite and friendly about it as possible. If this is really what you want to succeed in and the way you see yourself succeeding... you're gonna have to work. A lot. Sorry.

If I was some b******t YouTuber or a snake I would tell you that this is amazing content that could grab anybody's eye but let's just be real now... this made my head hurt man. Maybe if you do a throrough explanation infront of the video, kinda like the twilight zone, which explains what the f**k is going on, then it would make more sense. But for the regular human brain, too much to process. It's like robot chicken without any explanation of any scene.

Thanks for reviewing! I appreciate that man!
Robot chicken kicks a**! I grew up watching shows like Monty Python, The Fast Show, Harry Enfield and Chums, EuroTrash and loads of dark humour comedies shown late at night.
Kinda influenced me in a huge (possibly messed up) way.

It took a while to make because I've got a life. A full time job working nights, Two children, having to spend time with the wife, partying with friends, 2-3 hours a week at the gym to keep fit and a 5 bedroom house to clean on a daily bases.
I also did lot's of filming in between production on other shows and social events like the octopus parties and smaller local Comic-Cons for example.

I appreciate you checking it out bro, means a lot! It's not everyone's cup of tea hahaha I know that much but I sure as hell had fun filming it and super happy with the end result!

Okay where do I begin?

First I want to say I am still pretty new to YT so by no means am an expert, I am just a viewer so just want to give my humble opinion...BUT I am very opinionated ;-)

Sound: It was hard to understand sometimes what you were saying. Not sure if it is the accent, or just bad sound quality? Maybe invest in some sound equipment?

Video: Some parts of your video where really grainy and not good quality, seemed like being filmed on a camera phone? Something maybe you want to look into?

Story line: There really was none but not sure if this is what you were going for? I think you were trying to make it mental and looney, and I think you accomplished that aspect BUT... there are ways to make a crazy, outlandish, looney video but still have a coherent story line.Your video, was hard to follow, had no recurring theme that I could tell, and just really did not make sense IMO.

I could not watch the whole video because I felt like I was going to have a seizure from the lighting, camera movement, different scenes, etc... It was really hard on the eyes. Sorry.

The PROS: I can see why it took you 3 months to make this. You should be proud of yourself, I can tell you went through a lot to get this video together. The editing seemed very detailed, and the costumes, different clips, everything just seemed like it would have been really time consuming so I have a lot of respect for you.

If you could take away one tip from me: Focus more on having a coherent story line (full of crazy if you want) and focus less on overly detailed editing/angles/shots/clips/scenes. Just sit in a room and have the camera pointed at you, and do what you do. MAYBE, throw in one or two clips of craziness if you please, but I think this will make your videos easier to follow and watch.

You have a lot of potential, and the fact you could even edit a video this well shows you are capable of alot, so I know you just need to make a few tweaks and in no time will have some bomb a** crazy fun videos!!!

Thank you so much Purely Peña!
This is all so helpful because to progress forward in something that we love, we have to learn where we go wrong or fall short.
Mine happens to be storytelling and a direct path that the viewers can follow!
See thanks to you Purely Peña and IB360HD I'm learning how to better my videos.
I've got some big idea's for my 3rd Episode so I think what I'm learning from you two, I have to apply less of what I'm used too (Brain, you let me down again!) and more of what a casual viewer would enjoy more!

 

[Purely Peña]

Yes, be more conscious of what your viewers want to see/CAN see, and less what you want. I mean obviously make videos about what you want, but you know what I mean? A topic that interests you but make it viewer friendly?

I will give you an example of a crazy video that is watchable and this is not my video (obviously) so not promoting myself.

This video is all in Japanese so you may not be able to understand it.That doesn't matter though. What you see is someone who has clearly gone crazy. making a video that is somewhat nuts, BUT, is still coherent. He is sitting in one spot, dialogue is somewhat clear even if you don't understand the language, the quality of the sound is clear. Also, there is something that the audience can grasp and take away which is:

He is talking about something (promoting something) while losing it, possibly a drug fueled rant? And at the end he says goodbye. In your video, I couldn't even take that much away from it. It was like jumbled clips with no clear goal or theme. I think if you could do something like this guy, like one room, one shot, just you, going crazy or doing whatever you do, and then maybe explain what the viewer is about to see, then insert one of your crazy clips? That would be a lot easier to follow. Just My opinion. andddddd easier to edit!~!!
