Re: Starting Out on YoutubeI think you can talk faster! Maybe it's just that I hate hearing other peoples ear music, but I thought the topic, or they you were presenting it was kinda dull. Then again, I don't especially love, "you know that thing that annoys you, well it annoys me too, and here is me showing you that thing" type videos and it takes a lot of skill to pull it in a way that is humorous.

Re: Starting Out on YoutubeYeah definitely, I do it already, but I do agree the editing should be a bit snappier.(Original post by Angryification)
Liked it, but it may be better to edit out silence.

Re: Starting Out on YoutubeThank you!(Original post by lilahnurave)
I actually liked the new video, its good cause it seems like you're not trying too hard, you're just chatting - but its funny
Anything else in the pipeline??
A good few things actually, it's just finishing off scripts and finding chances to film them them. May do a Q&A video soon, they're simple and easy to do, but I don't want to scare off new subscribers, so I'll have to find out a way to mix it up a bit and make it more interesting.
Stay tuned

Re: Starting Out on YoutubeIndeed they are. I do try not to become so similar that I'm merely copying the Vlogbrothers but adding different content, though it's hard to carve out a niche when the seemingly accepted norm has become a Philip DeFranco/Vlogbrotherish consensus; short, choppy videos with a few funny cutaways that generally stays one or two threads of conversation.(Original post by Addzter)
You can definitely tell that your videos are inspired by that dude.
Meh, trying my best though

Re: Starting Out on YoutubeIn all seriousness, they are pretty good for a beginner. Unlike the vast majority of wannabe vloggers you actually have screen presence and you're cultivating a fairly likeable, interesting personality so I'd say keep it up.(Original post by jumpingjesusholycow)

I do very much appreciate the feedback. I do need to hone my content into something a little more coherent but news that I'm not as bad as I think is certainly encouraging 
I'm in the process of making a 'thoughts from places' from Paris, though I hit a brief hiatus due to exams and moving back home. -
Re: Starting Out on YoutubeYeah, well I'd say you definitely have potential, especially if you hone your content like you say. I didn't find my mind wandering when I was watching your videos because you're pretty engaging, whereas most new vloggers stare down the camera and talk slowly and monotonously about **** nobody cares about.(Original post by jumpingjesusholycow)
Why thank you

I look forward to seeing it.
