Hello everyone, I'm going to be starting my own YouTube channel.

I want to upload videos based on but not limited to my culture and ethnicity, and how it is living in the west being an Arab.

I'm a North African Arab, so my culture is a bit different from the rest of the Arab world, so hopefully my videos wont be cliché. (I don't think they will be considering the ideas I have)

I want my channel to be based upon making people laugh, and hopefully if it grows I'll do other stuff (like vlogging), but the main idea is making people laugh.

I need some help if possible starting this channel, like channel art ideas and video ideas/editing ideas. I'm very skilled with computers, but I would love to have the opinion of others when I have an idea.

I live in London and I am hoping to get my channel started as soon as possible.

Of course I am starting from 0, and I know it isn't easy, especially considering I don't have a huge following on social media platforms

Anyone interesting in helping make/be a part of the channel ? :smile:

that sounds fun! i always have fantisies of having a channel but not right now. also i think was makes people appealing to me, i prefer youtubers who may react to a popular video, or go on rants on crazy stuff, love a good rant or even to comedy sketches are great to watch :smile:

I didn't plan on doing prank videos. And thanks ! Although it is not the logo I intend to use on YouTube.

Oh why not, it looks quite good?
My brother's helping one of his friends start up a comedy YouTube channel and I'm trying to remember some of the things he said they were discussing. One thing is that this friend of his has a really funny personality, he writes captions on instagram photos that are funny and people follow him for that. Not everybody has that ability - so I think that makes a big difference.
