For the last few months I have n’t been able to keep a logical video release schedule . We ’ve been shooting for Wednesday and Sunday video release days , but dumbfound good video out keeps getting derail by family events , talk , illness , other project , inclement atmospheric condition , a videographer with morning sickness , etc .
My idealistic video is one that is well opine - out , scripted , artistically shot with first-class Bel - roll , interlard with good original music , provides useful information and is at least ten minutes in length . It ’s even better if it has a skit or a rap or a great prank in it .
Yet we have incur that simply stand up in the garden and relating some information about a special plant , method or technique , with almost no B - roll and very little metre and redaction … still get good view . Oftentimes the survey are even unspoiled .
It seems to come down to three thing :
That ’s really it . My personal favored video seldom take off at all .
It seems our main interview is really only concerned in information , not aesthetic ravisher , entertaining skit , great camera Angle , etc .
When I opine doing YouTube years ago and how I wanted it to crop , I visualize a channel where I would submit some good gardening information along with lots of humor and music , and sometimes just funny skits that had nothing at all to do with gardening .
Like this one :
More related to to gardening , we recently did a video which was highly compose and planned out , with lots of work in the editing , costuming , etc .
Yet that video is stalled out with roughly 23k entire views . That ’s a decent view count ; yet I ’ve already get more aspect from this video ( 28k ) which was promiscuous to take and edit :
And this one , which took only about 15 minutes to shoot , has beat them both with 32k views only 5 days after expiration :
Clickbait title ? CHECK !
Greco-Roman REACTION IMAGE thumbnail ? CHECK !
PROVOCATIVE idea ? CHECK !
Okay … so here we are .
The wondrous esthetic ideas just take more prison term to carry out and seem to make trivial remainder – and perhaps even a negative difference – on scene .
That means , in effect , that we are punished for make more creative contentedness . It might pay only $ 1 per hour or so , whereas throwing together a rant television might ante up us $ 100 in revenue for an hour of work .
It ’s wild .
But , all that to say , this spring we have not been able to perplex to a regular sack agenda of video which are extremely planned , artistic , and time - waste to produce . And that may not count , since our unproblematic videos seem to do as well – or good – than those we considerClassic Good Content(TM ) .
So , with that said , we ’re go bad to try and up the amount of picture we ’re releasing while decreasing the amount of time it takes to make them . That means more “ talking in the garden ” fashion vids .
Which may , by the turn , just be what people want anyhow .
What do you recollect ?
