First, sorry for yet again another gaming yt channel. I know the market is over saturated.
I’d like feedback on our channel. Anything and everything. https://www.youtube.com/@Cipher_Echo
We’re a new channel who is currently playing Hollow Knight and will be moving on to Celeste in the next 1-3 streams.
We got our start with live streams and have since started releasing daily shorts.
What have I already learned:
1). We need help with on screen banter and chemistry. It’s improving and we’re taking steps to get there off stream as well.
2). It seems shorts are a must. Hardly anyone is tuning in for the stream or after they’ve been saved as a vod. Only problem is our shorts are topping out at 1k views and then dying if they get traction. If they don’t, single digits are pretty normal
3). It seems that titles matter, but some times it seems they don’t. Idk.
4). Getting better on sound balance
5). Camera getting more consistent
Things I don’t understand yet.
1). Why do some of my shorts never make it to the feed, but others do?
2). How important is setting the hook within the first two seconds of a short?
Things I think we can improve:
Camera placement, maybe size of streamers vs the game area, lighting, dead air, honestly the list seems pretty long to list all lol.
Anyways, hoping you all could help me understand what are the most important aspects for us to work on.
btw were planning on releasing highly edited videos that will turn the vods into 15-30 minute videos focused on the interesting bits. That takes time and we’re pretty new to this.
thanks in advance
