The undeniable fact is that it’s great content that makes a great YouTube channel. Your lecturer is a highly successful YouTuber . . . And he says, "While YouTube marketing, SEO and thumbnails are important, they must take second place to content. Viewers wanting more content results in subscriptions, fans, followers and income. Every successful YouTuber knows this." This course focusses on how the great YouTubers became as successful as they are. Ask anyone of them, and they will surely answer, “We had the content people wanted. And that's not a difficult thing to accomplish.” YouTube is like real estate when they say, "location, location, location." With YouTube, it's content, content, content. Why does it take most YouTubers years to reach just 1000 subscribers? Mostly, because their content is uninteresting, uninspiring or mediocre. Would you like to grab 1000 in just a month? The secret is great content. This course is for people wanting to join the wonderful YouTube family of successful creators. Great content makes a great channel. Everything else is secondary. And, as important, creating great content leads to personal satisfaction, which means your channel will have a long and healthy life. This course is here to help YouTubers, young and old, to create great content. It is creative in nature. Great marketing is pointless without great content. This course is about content creation, because content is king! I began my career 38 years ago in advertising, editing TV commercials for big agencies. Much later I made TV documentaries for big networks. Now I have my own adventure travel TV show on YouTube. I can honestly say I’m having more fun now earning from my YouTube channel releases than I did chasing TV companies. Now they chase me! I launched my YouTube channel in 2008 as a means to market my work, but not gather viewers. That changed in 2014 when I finally understood the YouTube model and began to create content specifically designed to grow my channel. Since then, my subscribers have grown, currently topping 230 000.  Without any special marketing and SEO techniques, I went from 12 000 to 100 000 subscribers in less than four years. I attribute it to the quality of content. As a side benefit, because the quality is good enough, it has attracted sponsors. I’d like you to enjoy this level of success too. You will learn: Cameras. A practical overview on what makes great self-content gear. Microphones. An overview on capturing great sound. Keeping out the shake. Legs, tripods, mounts and more Don’t dwell too much on the equipment. It’s not as important as you may think. Techniques for addressing the camera and audience. Shooting from the hip ready for the edit. B-roll content. 4-second rule Drones. 10 second rule Self-shooting and selfies. Skin tones out of doors. Natural lighting principals Editing: Audio. Neglect the audio quality at the expense of everything. Editing techniques for vlogs, stories and grabbing your audience in the first 5 seconds. Editing software choices. Avoiding the perils of poor music choice. The fastest way to lose a viewer. Keep it snappy but not disturbing. “Get on with it!”. How to step back and look at an edit sequence objectively. Getting your audience to feel something. Invitations to your viewers to watch more. Titles and thumbnails. Live broadcasts. Scheduling. Youtube challenges and how to balance a YouTubers' life. Income production alternatives. The current catch phrase in the world of YouTube creators is, 'Content, content, content'. Come with me, and I'll help yours get better. sincerely, Andrew St Pierre White

Many people desire to start a youtube channel, but don't ever take that step over the line to start. Two years ago, I was personally in this position, and I'm so glad that I didn't let fear stop me. Today I have a youtube channel with over 40,000 subscribers, and am able to be a full time youtube content creator, providing content that helps other photographers & filmmakers grow and become better creative business owners. In this course, we will cover all the steps you need to consider before starting your youtube channel, as well as learn the skills you need, in order to vlog, tell your story, and grow your channel.

Do you want to be a filmmaker? Most video courses focus on teaching how to get better footage. And that's a good first step. But this course will do far more. It will teach you how to weave great footage into an even greater story, regardless of how mundane or ordinary the topic may be. I'm a TV producer, director and editor. My shows have been on major networks in many countries. I've been doing this for 38 years. And no matter where your videos will be displayed, you need to know the content of this course. Most of it you will not find in any other course, mainly because I think most video instructors don't appreciate just how important it is. So, if you wish to entertain an audience, which means to have them enjoy your videos and look forward to more, good storytelling is the key. The best footage in the world is just not enough unless its crafted into a tight and engaging story. And capturing footage suitable for telling a story is what you will learn here. It begins before the shoot, continues during the shoot and on well into the editing room. Let's begin . . . You'll learn these things: Different cameras and what makes them different. Good videography is less about fancy expensive equipment and more about telling a story. How to determine what kind of videos you want to make, and what equipment is needed. Camera equipment is the great temptation. How to avoid spending on things that are promoted as needed, when all they do is briefly satisfy the ego. How to shoot a scene to tell a story. Shooting is not just about 'getting great footage'. It's about capturing elements to tell a story during the shoot. Learn the mind space one should use to tell a story as its being shot. This is necessary because creating a story after the footage is shot, sets one up for failure in the edit. Why should shooting and editing not be regarded as seperate processes. Pans, zooms, top-shots, eye-lines, white-balance, B-roll and more. Not only how to get them right, but why they work in a story. Your footage will look like a pro's shot it. And when you begin your edit, you'll love me for it! For example, I'll not only tell you what a pan is, how to shoot a smooth one, but more importantly, why would a pan work in a story.  Nobody ever teaches this stuff! B-roll footage? Techniques for extreme efficiency in footage gathering. Audio.  Techniques for extreme efficiency in audio content gathering. Editing software choices and links to free edit software that is, surprisingly, absolutely brilliant. It's also free, and I still use it. Wow! Editing techniques. I'll teach some simple rules that'll turn your audience's heads. Editing can be intimidating, because in many ways, its the most difficult part. But it's actually quite easy as long as the footage gathered is done with the story in mind. I'll teach you how this is done. How to avoid the amateur traps; the shooting and editing techniques that might look cool, but actually shout 'beginner here!'. Look like a pro right from the start! Music and how to find it, know its right, and use it properly. And a lot more.

It's time documentaries get a fresh lift. Typically, they are taught with outdated methods which stem from the 90's, with boring talking heads and bad imagery. This class, instead, teaches you how to make modern, cinematic, and story-driven character docs that engage viewers both visually and emotionally. This class will cover the whole doc making lifecycle, covering how to plan, how to shoot, and how to edit. Part travelogue, part course, all of these lessons are designed to be applicable and get straight-to-the-point. Showing behind-the-scenes footage, they bring you along Dandan's journey of making her beautiful short doc in Tokyo about a female boxer. All of the lessons are designed to be applicable, get straight-to-the-point, and use minimal equipment. By the end of this course, you will have all the knowledge and a complete roadmap needed to make your first documentary short.
