Hey folks. I thought I would give an outline of what I want to do and get for my YouTube channel in the not-too-distant future.
I'll update this post as things get bought/set up.
- Better Lighting
Status: DONE! Better lighting provided via a couple of LED lamps. - Better Webcam Video Quality
Status: Ongoing. I have a Logitech C920 Webcam at the moment. Since I've recently started doing gameplay videos in 60fps, this would allow me to have my face cam footage at the same framerate. Also the quality would be ever so slightly better.
- Green Screen for News Bit
Status: DONE!. I have and have been using a full sized green screen. - System Upgrade
Status: DONE! I now have 32GB of DDR4 with a Ryzen 1700 8 core 16 thread CPU. A very capable machine for recording and editing videos.
- Ask DavidGX Videos
Status: Too Soon? I'd like to do a regular, or perhaps semi-regular, "Ask DavidGX" where people submit questions and I answer them. I've put out a call for questions but haven't gotten much response. Have a look at my Curiouscat page and submit questions there. Anonymous questions are enabled so if I get enough (maybe 10 answerable questions) I'll do a video answering them. This might just be a thing I have to wait to do until I have a larger audience.
- Live Streams
Status: Soon. I'd like to do more live streams. But, again, this may be something I'm forced to wait on until I have a larger audience. I've messed around with streaming a little bit on my Twitch Channel and it's gone fairly well. I'm still not sure if I should primarily stream on YouTube or Twitch. I'm thinking Twitch since it's best not to have all your eggs in one basket. But this is something that will be decided once I have a bigger audience.
