Rob, your video on creating channels for people over 40 was fantastic! I highly recommend continuing this series. From my experience, those over 40 often struggle with the tools and equipment needed to create RU-vid videos, making it hard to stay consistent. Keep up the great work!

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

@user-gs2lm4xb7j Месяц назад

I like a RU-vidr to produce a good quality video, a decent one. I will admit I don't like a RU-vidr to edit or do heavy editing. If a RU-vidr yawns or sneeze as long as they say excuse me. I'm good. If a fly or bug is in the room and the RU-vidr fans it away or says shoo fly, they doesn't bother me at all. Not at all. There is a RU-vidr I like who does not do heavy editing. If she needs to get some water, you can see her walking to the refrigerator to get it. She'll take some sips, sit back down and say something like, whew! I am so thirsty. I needed that. If her doorbell rings guess what. She answers it. We may not see who it is at her door but she answers it. She has a very successful channel. It continues to grow. If a video isn't edited or heavily edited, it looks decent and presented neatly and is good content I'll like it. That's my opinion on video editing. I'm enjoying your over 40 content a lot. Please keep it coming.

Hey Rob, glad you came around and thank you for sharing your thoughts, knowledge, studio setup, and experiences. The way you ended with take after take resonates. I’m certain many viewers felt the same during that specific process. We know we just need to have a bullet point script, but being in front of a camera knowing what you’re putting out tends to be most challenging. After having gone through that myself, turns out you just need to record over and over till you find your spot. Best of everything in your journey! 🙏🥂😎

@Jensomat Месяц назад

Hey Rob! Thanks for that video. I can completely feel with you. I have a new channel and just got 1000 subs and I start over again and again, when I say hello to the folks. But I noticed, that you have to stand up for every take. I would recommend my setting: I use Ecamm Live, a Sony cam, a boom mic and a iPhone and you can plug everything in your Mac. In Ecamm Live you can switch between the cameras with a Steamdeck and even start and stop videos. So you could easily sit in your chair, start a recording with a button, switch to the iPhone while recording and even start and stop recording - without leaving your chair! All your takes will be saved on the Mac in a folder (and the audio is included already in the movie file!). That’s what makes it super-easy for me to do videos. I just have to fight with motivation and fear of being a bad youtuber. :D If you need more information about my setup: let me know. I would be glad to help. Have a great one! Jens

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

Thanks for the feedback! Actually, I didn't have to stand up each time... I only did that because that was the "beginning" I was going for... I wanted the set with chair and Peanut lying on the back all setup for when I came in and sat down to talk... so it was by design! I actually had my audio and video recording the whole time :-) But great ideas with Ecamm and the audio! I use Ecamm Live during my weekly live stream on Tuesdays... love the software! Cheers :-)

@RobtheMaritimer 9 дней назад

@hornbaker Месяц назад

From a camera nerd, for clarity… for shallow depth of field, it’s “large aperture” not to be confused with “wide angle”. Ideally, you want to use a “longer” lens / zoom more and place the camera 6-12’ from you to be most aesthetically pleasing (doesn’t make your nose large, etc.). It also narrows how much background is in view. Achieving both of the above is not a cheap lens, so there are trade offs. Another simple tip… use the lens hood. It improves your image quality by blocking stray light. Thanks for your videos!

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

Thank you for clarifying! I'll never call myself a camera expert... I just know what looks good lol! Thanks for sharing :-)

@hornbaker Месяц назад

@@RobtheMaritimer Wide angle / closer lens does also contribute to making depth of field shallower, but has tradeoffs with image distortion from needing to be physically so close. (Conversely, a longer lens avoids the distortion, but it’s not so easy/cheap to get the same low f/ value.)

@Christopher-p7g Месяц назад

Well done! I love that cat and the mouse video in the end. You can always just talk to the cat as the audience? I think simple is the road for me. I am in the hobby stage and just enjoying my time.

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

Yes, the Focusrite is great. I have a 16 channel mixing desk that couples up to mine, so I can connect guitar processors, synths and vocal mikes etc. I take it you are switching your cameras audio off? Something that strikes me as being extremely important is the RU-vid video’s heading. Being precise, without being “click bait”, is so important, and I think is the reason your “making RU-vid videos over 40” had such a far reach. I for one am grateful. Thank you.

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

I don't actually switch the camera audio off... I leave it on as that helps me sync the computer-captured audio with the video from the SD card... I use the audio waveforms to help sync them together... the first step in my editing process :-)

@anthonyenglish5709 Месяц назад

Great video, thanks for sharing I appreciate that. Just a small observation: I know you said you are a new user of cameras and so am I, but the millimeter value (mm) tells how wide the angle of the lens is(called focal length) , now, the ‘f’ number (f2.8 and so on) tells how wide the aperture can open (the opening for the light to come into the camera sensor) and this is what makes the image more or less blury and blurs the background. This is what I understand to be true - you could always double check as I’m no authority on camera.

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

It sounds like you know more than I do as I'm certainly no expert! I only know when I see a picture/video I like... and that sigma 16mm F1.4 lens makes for an awesome blurry background when you don't have the extra space to create it more naturally :-) Thanks for the comments!

Recoding, saving, editing and uploading. I unfortunately don’t have all the fancy gadgets. If I could get past this hurdle I’d have a couple channels.

You really don't need much to start... if you have a smartphone that's 4 years old or newer then that's probably all you need for video.

Hi Rob, Subscribed for sure. There is so much value in someone close to your own age teaching or showing us all this vs. trying to understand the teachings of younger folks who were born into the youtube/tech world. (Seems like they just assume you know all the lingo and start their "beginner tutorials" at a point beyond what I know.) I would like if you made a video of what moves you actually make in your (DAW) to adjust or fine-tune your audio(compression, EQ, Reverb or stereo delay) and video editing as well. I am trying to work with Final Cut Pro for video and Logic Pro for Audio. I am an Apple guy. But I've heard that most DAW's have similar features.

Another helpful video 😊 I don't have an audience yet, so initially, it's hard to engage with them.. but them again, it's only a 500+ channel. I'll just have to be consistent.. I like how you end your vids with bloopers 😁 keep at it! Majes, you are relatable & that's what people want.. we'll, we 40+somethings Lol!

Thank you! It is hard talking when you know people aren't watching (or not a lot of people)... feels kind of weird actually! What helps me is thinking like I'm talking to a close friend and answering a question they just asked me. I find that helps me be more "me" and comfortable :-)

I’m apparently well on my way. About two weeks into starting again and finally had my first video that’s had any degree of reach (about 500 views so far). Helps to have friends that have had varying degrees of success. Which is pretty amazing since I’m just using a tripod and an iPhone 14 🤣 Borrowing from the Gary Vee school of thought. Basically just going for it.

Please make a video on your mic setup and what software, etc you use and what you do with the audio.

Thanks Rob, I'm about to start my channel and this is really helpful. Thanks! It's good to see the bloopers... it's made me realize that you can get lots of exercise when doing the videos too :) One thing that you missed was the patch panel bolted to the underside of the desk. Is that related? Cheers, Scott

I got that idea from DSLR Shooter on RU-vid but I never really use it as I initially intended. Mostly what I use that for now is lighting and being able to easily turn my lights on/off... and it's also nice to have those power outlets there too! Perhaps a future video explaining that would be a good idea :-)

I'd like to see really dumbed down step by step, the gear/software for editing. How you edit and splice and drag the parts around. Thanks,

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

I'm working on the best way to show all of that. Right now I'm uploading 1-2 videos per week and also on Tuesdays (tomorrow) I live stream for 3 hours where I answer questions, do demonstrations and try to help as much as I can! Feel free to stop by and ask any questions you have :-) You can also check out my previous live streams to get an idea what I talk about in them. Cheers :-)

Advanced Audio tips would be great, I'm pretty good with the visuals but have only a little knowledge of audio... Particularly what is optimal for YT uploads.

@ellenshealthykitchen 27 дней назад

I stopped the video at the 7:22 point to ask you how you get the audio which you’re recording separately to sync with the video in the editing process. You might reveal that further on in the video, but I didn’t want to forget my question so I’m posting it here. By the way, I am grateful that RU-vid showed you to me because I am also trying to grow my RU-vid channel. I spent a ridiculous amount of time editing the video that I uploaded yesterday about the importance of prepping your food. I learned a lot in the process, but I have to think there’s got to be a better way because it was a major time sink!

@RobtheMaritimer 27 дней назад

I do capture my audio separate from the video, and I sync them together in the editing process. I don't really cover that in much detail in this video but I show exactly how I do it in the course I'm launching on Monday. Basically, my video recording also captures audio in my camera so syncing that with the separate audio I capture in my macbook is relatively easy... I just have to sync up the audio... and have to do that BEFORE making any edits to the video. I hope that helps :-)

@ellenshealthykitchen 27 дней назад

@@RobtheMaritimer I imagine it takes some dexterity and skill to sync them.

@ERIKCANTU Месяц назад

You said you keep the cameras in the studio with auto focus and auto white balance, that is the opposite of what would be best practice. I just found you and this is my first video of yours, so I don't know what you shoot other that the shot on the leather chair to those camera; but in such a controlled set, it's safest to manually set white balance, and maybe focus, but depending on how shallow you are on DOF, auto may be a better choice. But if in a controlled light environment, setting white balance is best, especially if working with more than one camera for a single shoot.

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

You are probably right! No arguments from me! I only do it the way I do it because it works for me. I'm not even going to pretend to be a camera expert... I find all the dozens of menu options in today's cameras to be overwhelming... so I keep things simple. My thinking is that people will forgive a slightly less perfect video WAY before they'll forgive bad audio... so I focus more on good audio than the absolute perfect video shot. So for me, Auto White Balance works, and as for auto focus, I do tend to stand up and walk around sometimes... or hold things I'm showing up to the camera... and for that I need the camera to adjust focus automatically. Anyways... those are just my thoughts and the way I do it. I'm positive your suggestions are in fact the "proper" way to do it. Thanks for sharing :-)

@ERIKCANTU Месяц назад

@@RobtheMaritimer Audio and video wise, you are doing it right. white balance has a bit of a learning curve in terms of understanding it, and setting it; and if it isn't an issue, keep doing what you're doing. I am 45 and have only just in the last month seriously started my own youtube channel (and planning a second) after a lifetime of being a camera operator, editor or producer for other people's ideas for broadcast or youtube distribution.

Hi Rob, I just discovered your channel thanks to this "start youtube over 40"-series and I really appreciate it! I started my youtube-channel a couple of years ago when I started to play music again after almost 20 years of not playing anything. I really stuggle with stage fright as a musician and hated the sound of my own voice. I decided to start recording videos as a way to force myself to face this issue and publish it despite all the anxiety it came with. And with the hope of being able to see some improvement over time, as you mentioned in one of these videos. My first songs are really awful and cringe to watch, but it is fun to compare with some of the newer ones. But there is one hurdle that I still haven't jumped over and that is speaking videos, to just talk to the camera. This feels even worse than singing, and with the added challenge that it would make sense to do it in English and that is my third language so it adds another layer of cringe... (my first language, Swedish, would really limit the potential reach) :) But there has been an idea of doing some speaking videos too, I just need to jump in and do it. Maybe some behind the scenes or music studio related topics, just to get started. Your series inspired me to give it a go, now I just need to face it head on and do it!

@johantt2591 Месяц назад

And of course, I am now subsribing to your channel and hope to see more of this content! :)

@RobtheMaritimer Месяц назад

Speaking to a camera is something that most people find very uncomfortable... it's really hard until you get used to it! I can only imagine how much harder it must be if you want to make English videos but that isn't your first language. You should check out Peter Lindgren's RU-vid channel... he's from Sweden and English is not his first language either and he's grown a very large channel of over 600k subscribers. He sometimes stumbles over English words and will then launch into something in Sweden which only Swedish speaking people would understand... but he does it in a humorous way! Anyways... thought you might like to see how someone else handles that :-) www.youtube.com/@PeterLindgren1

@johantt2591 Месяц назад

@@RobtheMaritimer Thanks, I will check him out. There are of course a lot of us Scandinavians who make content in English (in our own strange languages, we would be very isolated), and generally speaking we are used to speaking at least one other foreign language. But it is like you get another personality with another language. I am not the same in Swedish as in my second language Spanish or English. So it is hard to achieve the same autenticity. But of course, a lot of content creators also adopt a "persona" even in their native language, some very successfully and others less so...

Just found your video and I just sub to your channel. I can relate to your outtakes, I started a youtube channel in 2023 called "Popcorn Cobra" and I have been trying to figure out my voice on movie reviews and etc. Thank you for creating this type of video it helps me to know I am not the only one that is 40 that is trying to do better with their Hobby.. If you have any advice on how to grow a channel please let me know. Lol

I'll be posting a lot of content on the channel in the coming days/weeks/months that will mostly be geared towards helping the "over 40" crowd to START and GROW their RU-vid channels... so stay tuned! And best of luck to you :-)
