What's your channel?

I'd tell you if I knew I could protect my identity both ways. I would trust everyone on this board enough to share it with but the lurkers are who I'd be a little concerned about.

I work in the film industry and started the channel in 2020 as a way to make some extra money after the industry was shut down. It's been a huge help, especially since we never fully recovered and I sometimes go months between jobs.

It was slow initially but really took off after a particular show I was working on wrapped. I started showing/discussing bts content I collected over the years, which gave me a lot of original material to work with and it blew up.

But I primarily focus on general advice for film students like things they don't teach you in school (despite the fact that I didn't even major in film lol).


If anyone here has ever thought about starting a channel, do it. And if you have questions, I'd be more than happy to lemd advice. The first thing I'll tell you is prioritize audio. Invest in good audio equipment and post software (I use izotope). Viewers will forgive a lot but bad audio is one of the fastest ways to instantly lose them.

The next big thing is originality. If you want to build a channel around something like Bama football, don't just make the same videos as everyone else. Find an angle, perspective or type that feels distinctly yours. Give people a reason to watch your video instead of the 50 other videos covering the exact same topic (ie our QB battle).

It's pretty cringe, especially when its a larger channel. I've never once asked someone to like or subscribe. I do sometimes try to bait people into commenting if I think a video might be a bust, just to help with engagement, ngl. But that's on me for making what I feel is a subpar video.

But I feel like if people enjoy your content enough, they'll subscribe on their own. I'm at nearly 45K subscribers and average around 200 new subs a day and I've never asked anyone to like or subscribe.

Are you considering starting a channel?

Well, that's not good, The Watchmen series was a complete dumpster fire.

The Leftovers was even worse. Without question, it's the most laziest written show I've ever seen. The only impressive thing about that trainwreck of a series was how that dumb frick managed to stretch the most extremely thin ideas into one hour episodes.

Will they also get blown out a few times this season?

I don't know about Ohio State but if Indiana is the reason we're ranked 13th, then someone will need to explain why Oregon is number 2....

"They don't lose to Vanderbilt." Mfers, they play a trash schedule and literally almost lost twice to a Wisconsin team we throttled... twice.

Immediate deportation of all muslims and complete border shutdown are 2 things Mace demands must happen.

The ball-less Republicans would never...

Well, in Three's Company he'd definitely be gay and the two chicks would be biracial tranny lovers.

They wouldn't change anything about Good Times or Sanford and Son for obvious reasons.

When you're relying on that much trash CGI, you might as well just commit and make the whole film animated.

A Muslim whining about slavery is peak irony...

Those anthropoids enslaved people across Africa, Europe and Asia for 1500 years and many Muslim countries today have some of the highest rates of modern slavery in the world.

So frick that hypocritical goat fricking Neanderthal.

Not according to our fanbase when you compare his regular season record (20-3) at this stage to DeBoer's (19-5)... and this was before the days of NIL, expansion, etc.
