Gatorade Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 1. How do you go about doing voice over's on your video 2. I read that if you make your video's 10 minutes or longer youtube will pop them up as promotions and things like that is this true? 3. Do you think a Banner / custom image and all that is needed? If so how did you go about getting yours? 4. Do you prefer Speed Time Lapses or Transitions:? If Transitions what kind. 5. Do you monetize your videos / and or add AD's? If so why if not why so?

I think Smi77y has a tutorial on his channel on how to do that 2. The algorithm for youtube is pretty fucked rn, so yeah videos over the 10 minute mark are more likely to be promoted by the youtube homepage etc 3. It makes you look more official, plus it looks pretty nice if its made well. 4. Transitions are better, time lapses look awful and look messy 5. Be careful about monetizing videos, if you use a copy righted song, all of it can be taken away from you. I think they fixed the system now, so random people could put false copy right strikes and just claim all your money, now it gives like a 30 day period where all the money goes to youtube, and then once the problem is solved all that money goes to the rightful owner.

I really appreciate all that - I have a few copy righted video's so thats good to know I was thinking of making 10 minute video's cause I feel like I make some good video's but there not reaching the people who would view them - on a count of most forums for other games actually suck ass and no one uses them unlike this community. they took the name eazy likes this Link to comment
Fr0ZoR Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) I am not really good with YouTube but I know how most of the stuff works, did some YouTube videos in the past and got bored, and did not have the right setup. Might go back to it since I have a really nice setup. 1. People record the video and put it into a video editor (Used to use Sony Vegas) and remove the sound, watch the video and talk over it making it the same length as the video in audacity or any voice recording program, put it into the video editor where you remove the audio, you can even lower the background noise, don't have to fully remove it. 2. I am not sure about this, since I have not uploaded to YouTube in couple of years. 3. It is not necessary, but if you are trying to get subscribers/likes and what not, maybe become famous lol, then you most likely want to get one, you can make these yourself, they are pretty easy to make in photoshop or whatever. 4. Transitions. 5. I did not because I did not expect to get that amount of views that I did, I thought that there is no point because if I would I would make couple of cents, but it turned out that I would make couple hundred dollars from my videos but it was too late. If you are getting good amounts of views, subscribers, and likes then go ahead, I do not see why not, it doesn't hurt. Edited January 11, 2017 by Fr0ZoR Link to comment

I know a few people that upload there videos to reddit and stuff, if you were to upload it to reddit i think that would be a pretty good way of getting it out there, I would say 15-10 mins is a good length for a video, if you ever got to the stage were you can; try get a sponsor sort of thing if you know what I mean. That way you might have an extra cash flow + if they have a website you will likely be advertised on it. (Example would be like Machinima, i think thats how its spelt) Link to comment

I know that you make more revenue money if they're longer than 10 mins 3. Definitely not NEEDED, but would help to make your channel more appealing. I'd use photoshop with a lay-out of the youtube banner sizes etc. 4. Solely depends on what you want to lapse or transition into. 5. Cuz I ain't a youtuber but if I was, I probably would.

If you are using sony vegas, there's a built in feature that allows you to record while watching the video, so you can commentate it as you watch in on vegas. If you're not going to use vegas, you can use a program like audacity and record your audio while watching the video. 2. If you have a video over 10 minutes, it will monetize it differently, and they'll get another ad in the middle of the video, meaning more money. 3. Banner is really something you should worry about until further down the road in your youtube career. if you are first starting off, you can have a basic image and if people enjoy your content, then you can start making your channel more professional. 4. It really depends. Let's say you're making csgo content, and you want to speed it up a little bit into the next kill in a round then time lapse would be okay, but in almost every other situation, a transition is better. 5. Yes. Monetize videos with ads. You're putting in effort to make the video, might as well make a little bit of money from it! also, if you ever need help editing / recording or any of that stuff, feel free to message me. It's what I really enjoy doing so I'd be more than willing to help! Edited January 11, 2017 by Addon Atmosphere and Gatorade like this Link to comment

You just can't use copyrighted music really. It will save you a lot of hassle to just search up Non Copyrighted music. Be careful with games as well. Microsoft doesn't let just anyone monetize content from their games. Blizzard lets you use any of the content and monetize your videos with no problems (As long as it isn't offensive such as racism, porn, etc.) I think Steam is the same as Blizzard when it comes to their games. I'm pretty sure Nintendo is strict with who publishes videos with their games as well. Edited January 11, 2017 by Riot INC Link to comment
