i thought i'd hate editing when i started, but sometimes it's weirdly satisfying watching a bunch of random clips slowly turn into an actual video. other times i want to throw premiere out the window

what part of the process do you enjoy the most?

what's sitting in your drafts right now that you swear you're going to make eventually?

i thought making videos would mostly be recording and editing. somehow i've ended up learning about thumbnails, titles, analytics, audio, lighting and about 47 other things. what surprised you the most after starting your channel?

Half-way through the year and what’s the trend on content creation? There’s so much AI-slop going around that it congests the creative space in youtube content creation. Do you think there’s no real innovation anymore?

Hey guys, I'm planning to start posting videos on Youtube. I've been spending time analyzing the Youtube homepage and the "New to you" tab.

It feels like the algorithm shifts every few months regarding what types of content gets pushed to the viewers. I'm curious to get a pulse check from newer creators on what you are seeing.

I'd love to hear what the data looks like on your end. Let's discuss

Hi!! Anyone here could share some tips to build your own channel? I’ve been thinking about this for a while now but I guess I’m a bit shy to start lol
