my first youtube video

give me feedback and advice please
and of course your opinion on this video
Nice work! :D

For a "first vid", that was really quite good... well-edited, effectively-narrated, and nicely-paced. You sounded just a tad uncomfortable(?), but much better than I'd expect from a first-timer. ;)

My only suggestion would've been to open with a quick contextual "intro"... nothing elaborate, just 10-15 seconds for a friendly greeting and the basic what-how-why of the knowledge you're about to drop (perhaps as a super-speed preview plays in the background):
''Light's Intro'' could have said:
"S'up gamers... here's an fast method for farming levels 30-40 by grinding Scarlet Monastery. It takes-advantage of a shielded Eye of Kilrogg to grab huge pulls, which can then be slowed and AoE'd all-at-once. This allows you to keep safe and kill fast, all while 'staying loose'. Let me break-it-down for ya'..."
(...or whatever, you get the idea.)

I could see "quick guides" like this having a lot of potential... keep 'em coming!
 
Cool video I like a solid tank so we can aoe more with 3 mages good video excited to see more content from you.
 
to echo what sin'dor said, toss in a quick intro.

also gonna need you to say "stay loose" at least twice in each video. But keep it up man, this is a really good start to what could be an excellent series.

yes your right

honestly idk about that intro i want want to make quick guides that get to the point and not waste time
honestly i was already harsh on myself for extending this to 5 min

I mean they intro doesn't have to be long, they can be single seconds if you really want them to be.

Chops himself is a perfect example with his 60 second f2p guides. He literally just says "Hey guys, Chops here. 60 second warrior guide." then gets right into it, takes like 2 or 3 seconds
 
Good video, however, I would highly recommend explaining at the beginning of the video what the video's purpose is. Like hey this is a guide for yada yada, etc.
 
i would recommend you stop selling bvb
No, I got it from an xpoff member, I'm going to sell it whether you like it or not, so please stop bringing it up. Your post asked for advice, I have multiple videos with 1000+ views, some 10-12,000+ videos, I was just passing along word of advice because you asked for it in your post.

I would like to thank you @Light for the video, I watched it and thanks to watching it I went to SM GY today and everyone that invited me to the AoE group complimented me on how nice I Eye pull mobs.

If I didnt' watch it, I wouldn't even know such a method exists. Props!
your welcome!
makes me feel good inside to hear it actually helped someone

Really good video Lightsauce, you make it look easy :)
NB would never have guessed it was your first vid if you hadn't said so.

Feedback - you have quite a strong accent (well, not for where you live, but presumably you want as wide an audience as possible), I would maybe add some large-font subtitles, not of everything you say, just the key points. That way people can pause on it, to consider your advice. This would be useful for non-English speakers and come to think of it this would also be useful for deaf players too.
 
Video was alright. But hey its not where you start is where you keep going :) Keep it up! Stay is the limit light.

Btw - Stay loose!
