How to make Youtube videos?

[General Mayhem]

Depending on what I'm making videos for I have 2 methods, #1 is basically for anything where I'm mobile and not recording in the studio, #2 is for when I'm dubbing records for bitchute/youtube or other things.

1. iPad/iPhone using iMovie

I shoot video using the iPhone usually since it's easier to aim than a giant iPad. Using AirDrop I copy the video over to the iPad for editing since it sucks on a small screen.

This is the mic I use, it works very well and comes with a handy adapter for smartphone mic inputs:

Nice thing about this mic is it has a 3.5mm dual mono plug so even if you plug it into a stereo input both channels will have audio.

2. OBS Studio / Adobe Premier Elements

Yes, OBS will work without streaming! Just hit record. This is by far the easiest way for me to make my 45 dubbing videos. Turntable goes into pre-amp then into a pro USB soundcard.

I have a feeling a lot of people who just record talking head videos of them ranting are doing it this way, anything more complex and they need to use a video editor.

I use a Logitech c920 or c930, they're both about the same. Image quality is pretty decent for a $50 camera, but I find manual adjustments makes my shoots look a lot better. The mic is not that great, it's designed as a web meeting camera.

I started a youtube channel to supplement my niche site. I bought a selfie stick to hold the phone and just uploaded the phone video to iMovie and did some minimal editing, but I think you can do an awful lot in iMovie.

The route I took was pretty amateurish but it worked for my niche. It was fun to have some positive interactions with folks in the comments and people really seemed to appreciate the content. I don't put much effort into it because I think I can make more money by focusing on the actual website.

Atomic: I don't think the kind of content I'd make would be suitable for monetization, which brings me to Uprising's question... the videos I'd make would be political. I likely wouldn't share on here until I was comfortable going public, as it would increase my chances of being doxxed, since it would increase the amount of information about me out in the ether (my posts here, plus my speaking voice, info I may share on videos but not here etc). We'll see. Posting them on here would give me an instant audience I suppose.

Understandable. Make burner accounts and advertise them on The Donald Reddit, FB, Twitter, YouTube comments, ext.

Actually, advertising your video on other political videos on YouTube that are of similar nature to what you're going to make is a great idea. I've clicked on video channels in the comments from time to time, I'm sure others do too.

Can you make more money with multiple youtube accounts? Or is focusing on one niche better?

I know google bans accounts if you have more than one, but I understand there are ways around that.

I dont think google bans you if you have more than one. I have two, although one is barely active so who knows.

Id focus on a single youtube account. Its challenging enough to build a following for a single one, managing multiple would just slow you down.

Anyone else having an issue with iMovies. I record on my phone and put the clips to a project on there. Then iDrop to my mac, when I try to import it to iMovies it ends up freezing and I have to force quit iMovies. Anyone know what the problem is?

Is there something similar to iMovies for PCs and Dells?
Can anyone recommend anything good or is iMovies basically the onley
thing available if you film on your iPhone?
