Free Advice/Feedback

Let's start of with the good/great/fantastic:

I can tell you're a natural speaker and I'm really jealous about that. Your voice naturally has character in it and you don't stutter and you're fast to think (unless you scripted this whole thing, which I doubt you did...I hope anyway). You enunciate everything very well and clearly; and honestly, bad enunciation and speaking skills can really make or break a channel, but it seems like you've mastered speaking very well! (I need to work on that).

Regardless, my only issue is pretty small: background music. There is nothing wrong with it, but make sure you have a happy medium between your voice and the music that is playing. I say turn down the music a bit because it does tend to drown out your voice in a few places and that can slightly ruin the viewing experience. I actually prefer no background music, but I've found that a lot of people actually do, so keep it if your target audience likes it. But, like I said, if you do, I recommend lowering it down. Try to make sure your BGM is also just instrumentals: having vocals in there can get in the way pretty badly.

Also, since your videos are commentary oriented (not in the LP fashion) I'd recommend using titles or text just so it helps with explaining your points. It's not mandatory whatsoever, but it does make your videos look a bit better. Other than that, you're good to go. Sorry this was so long :p
Thanks a million for the feedback, really appreciate it! Will definitely implement these tips! Thanks again!
 
Hey, thanks for offering feedback!

I'd love a review as well of my branding/graphics, as well as my channel trailer for the video.

Thanks buddy!

I would like some feedback on this video please! Much appreciated, thank you!
Awesome introduction man lol, that was pretty well setup.

Your commentary is actually not that bad. You have character in it and I won't tell you to change anything because you seem to be comfortable where you stand talking to the camera, so keep it up. I think the only thing I would actually say is try and talk to the audience a bit more (again, I'm being nitpicky because your video is actually very good).

Interaction with them will help out in the long run, and if you interact with them a bit more in your videos, it will expand your audience...at least I think so.

Anyway, awesome video! Sorry this couldn't be longer, but you are doing everything pretty well. Just advertise as much as you can :)
This is my most recent.


I know I have to work on my narrating, but then again, english is not my first language.

Any real advice appreciated.

I work with Sony Vegas 13, Audacity and PS CC in case you have any technical advice.
First off, clever name ;)

Second off, LOLOL, hilarious video man. I was not expecting you to do that. What I liked about it is the monotony in your voice and how you didn't budge or anything while you gave out the facts. Your english is perfectly fine and you narrate well, so do not worry or fret over that. I could understand everything you said perfectly fine. Your editing is very good as well - I love the pop up picture clips that occur from time to time. Those are awesome and really add extra tot he video.

I do have some advice - the first one is to try and take your editing to the next level by adding some sound effects here and there (BUT DO NOT OVERDO IT, THAT MAKES IT ANNOYING). It will add some pizzaz to it and a little bit of humor if the SFX are appropriately inappropriate.

Lastly - since your niche is really tight, try and make your videos as engaging as possible to get rid of other competition. And advertise as much as you can because, just like me, it's going to be hard to grow since both of our niches do not expand as much as we would like (Nintendo gaming and Top 10s).

Regardless, good job. Subbed!
Always love when people are so generous. Here's my latest upload on my acoustic channel. What do you think?


By the way, your video reminded me that I need to play Minish Cap and to finish Wind Waker HD. They're the only Zelda games I haven't finished since Ocarina of Time-era Zelda.

I'm glad you actually checked me out..and you really should. Wind Waker HD is a gorgeous game and Minish Cap is almost like it's weirdly awkward second-cousin (because Phantom Hourglass would be more like the direct spin off from it).

Awesome cover. I love guitar cover-esque channels simply because I suck at playing guitar (piano was almost my thing). I like that you show your face in your videos because it really displays how you get into the music. You play extremely well and you have a really good niche because music has been blowing up on YouTube the past 2 years. I'm sure you can hit 10K easily if you keep doing what you're doing.

I have two pieces of very selective advice. The first one is the sliding sound on your guitar when you switch frets. I'm ignorant af when it comes to these types of things, but if there is a way to get rid of the sound, try and do so. Again, I don't play guitar so idk if there is a way.

My last piece of advice is to try and lower the backing tracks. It seems like they're fighting with the melodic line and that's never good. Other than that, awesome awesome awesome channel. If you can play VGM, I would advertise the living hell out of your videos as much as I could and be your biggest fan <333333

Subbed.

Very, VERY professional channel. The only advice I can really give you is to try and not pause when you are doing unboxings. Try and keep it flowing. Just something you could practice. Honestly, everything else is really good.

Lucky for you, I love headphones and am a slight audiophile, so I'm definitely gonna follow this channel. I didn't even know OPPO makes headphones.[DOUBLEPOST=1436106337,1436105941][/DOUBLEPOST]
Care to watch my first episode of Pokemon? It should be featured on my channel's homepage
Your commentary is pretty good and the pop-up graphics are pretty awesomely edited as well. Your voice is well projected, you're engaging, and you don't have like any awkward pauses. You are always talking which is awesome! AND sound like you're really having fun while playing and honestly, that's all you can ask for in a video.

I would recommend working on your channel art - there are some awesome people on here that will make you some for yttalk cash or even for free. Trust me, channel art does a lot. Other than that, the audio quality as well (but that would require a new mic and money) so I won't hold that against you. Definitley and interesting channel. You do a whole lot of things, but they all are still tied together. That's awesome.
 
If you could review any of my videos, or just my overall channel, would be great! I'm always excited to hear what people think I can improve upon :) FYI: Talking will be done soon, got a plan to make a vlog :>
 
I uploaded my first video and was hoping you could give me some feedback. More in the direction if it's easy to understand, is my mic good enough etc. Seeing as it's an introduction video it's short.

 
I'd love some thoughts on my latest. It's a video essay on the history of Shark Week, which starts again tonight:

Thanks man! Really helps me out! I will definitely try to interact more, that always seems a problem when people give feedback on my channel. Not sure how to but I will figure something out!
