Transcripts

Hi

Do you want to open a gaming channel?

Do you even enjoy playing, or just want to do it for money and fame?

You will make money, no doubt, But you will have to work hard. So let's go, I will tell you everything about gaming channels

I shoot all my videos from a phone, not because I can't afford it but

Because I have decided to use phone until channel grows, and I will recommend you the same

First point, you need to appear calm and relaxed while playing a game

Second point, when you record yourself while playing game you need to appear interested and existed

"What does people with no resources supposed to do?"

For gaming you need a good mobile or a PC

Buying one before starting is a bad idea.

I know a lot of people who invested in PC but stopped after making 2-3 videos

So use whatever resources you have. You can use a phone to record, edit and upload.

There are a lot of games on phone like brains out. Many popular YouTubers play it.

You can record it on a phone and if you don't have a phone use your friend's phone or edit on his PC. You can't do this

Ray: Dad, we have Zoom meetings, so I need a graphic card

Dad: It will improve your grades, right?

Shopkeeper: Tell me which card you want? Or tell me which games you want to use?

Dad: GAMES???????

Don't start with comparing yourself to others. If you have passion, you might one day even surpass them.

If your only motivation is the money popular YouTubers make, Then don't do it Because you don't see the amount of work that goes into it.

Have you ever searched stuff like "How long ago did that YouTuber start?" "How many videos he used to upload?" "How many he uploads now?"

Account for all these factors

You might even start making more than them, but you will need to work for it "are you working or not? Keep working my friend"

Even in gaming, there is a lot of competition. Everybody has a smartphone now with PUBG installed. So you need to be unique to be popular

Mythpat and techno gamers are 2 unique examples. Mythpat scripts his video

And does more than just gaming while Techno makes long videos in story mode.

So everybody has their unique way, you need to have yours. You can't just Record, edit and upload

You need to add your face or voice in the video

You can play the game, but whose actual recording you're uploading no one can tell?

So to connect with the audience you need face and voice. Unless you provide an entertaining face or voice, the audience won't show any interest.

The audience want entertainment, they want to see your personality not your skills or a bot.

If you're a student, then try to upload 2 videos in a week. Or if you want to work on YouTube then upload 1 video in 2-3 days. Don't just fill up YouTube servers space

Give some time to scripting and editing. Don't be like you record it put some cuts and upload it

Research and decide the title and scripting, and also focus on thumbnails. Link for "how to make thumbnail tutorial" is on top right. Keep thumbnail simple.

Try to play different game, especially the trending ones.

For example: Fall guy, Getting Over It, Razi. Play these important.

If you have some other game, then play that, but only after you have garnered an audience.

Until then, focus on trending games.

Here is a hack for you

Follow some popular YouTuber and make videos on the topics they are making videos on.

Keep a similar title, don't copy, Change the video ofc. Change the topics after you get an audience

Prepare videos tags and title beforehand, take inspiration from other creators.

Don't be dumb like, you played the game brains out and put Carryminati and dynamo in tags.

Also focus on thumbnail. Your thumbnail should convey the essence of the video.

You can't record first and think title later This will also help you save time, and you will be able to focus on your video

If you are a beginner then create a channel make the banner and upload 3-4 videos

Now, some of you will ask, "should we do live steam or upload videos?"

Well if you do steam, who is going to watch you without an audience? You will just ask 6 of your friend and watch your steam yourself.

So what's the point. First build an audience then you can live steam

To record the game, download any app on android. You can directly record in iPhone and iPad.

For PC, download OBS. It is easy to use, I will provide a tutorial link in description

For videos on Gaming channel thumbnail and video editing like this video.

Put your interesting ideas in comments, I will try to make a video on some of them.

There are a lot of questions related to gaming channels which cannot be covered in 1 video. So put your doubt in comments and I will answer them all
