How to learn and start creating content on youtube?

• Identify what talent you have – comedy, stand up comedy, singing, fitness, dancing etc.
• One should really have the interest to feature and get featured.
• See tutorials on how a video is made.
• Learn and keep making videos on your own to learn more.
• Keep the audio and video clear enough.
• Use unique and out of the box ideas.
• Don’t become the crowd, monotonous stuff will never be seen by people.
• Target sensible audience for your content.
• Don’t compete and get into it to make money.
• Don’t copy or use the same things as used in other videos.
• Build your own unique style.
• Connect with the audience.
• Prefer using local languages if comfortable.

 

 

Criticism and failure:

• If we talk about comedy, no comedy is clean.
• Someone or the other is offended or insulted, that is for sure.
• In our country, no legal action is usually taken for trolling or expressing views on social media.
• Your content can be anything but it should be decent and acceptable.
• If you are serving something, it is obvious that some may like it and some may not.
• Be ready for rejection and improvement.
• Don’t ignore the critics and negative reviews in your content.

 

If your content is related to politics and political scenarios:

• If politics and politicians are the sources of your comedy content, make sure it is presented that you are doing it for comedy.
• Don’t insult them totally.
• Don’t make any content just to seek attention unaware of what is wrong and right.
• Praise the good things that they have made happen.
• Establish creditability. Don’t try to prove wrongs things correct and vice versa.

 

What kind of content does the YT industry need? Is there a bright future in this?

• YouTube favours intelligent content.
• The content and presentation should be very unique.
• Topics and fields may not vary but the style of presentation is what gets the audience attracted.
• Target good audience which is sensible enough to understand humour.

 

What role does self-awareness play?

• You should be self-aware that is you should be sure of what you are doing.
• You should be able to decide whether your content is worth or not.
• One should make sure what is the motive behind her/his videos.
• Keep a check on time invested on the same.
