Excited to watch this interview. I enjoyed the last one and I'm sure this one will be no different. What you said about key visuals stuck out to me. I do something similar in my videos when it comes to things I know I want to show. I honestly probably found out about you from the last interview so I'm going to check out the channel now that I have more context. Also, I kept thinking to myself, she reminds me of a famous actress. But I couldn't think of who. Now I think I know who it is. Kiera Knightley. Has anyone ever told you that? 😂

I do wonder if larger media companies will start producing more content for KZbin. Waiting for scripted series to be exclusive to KZbin. The problem for most film makers would be the budget, which could be less of an issue with a media company. Could KZbin one day be more like a Spotify? Where lots of traditional TV shows and movies are uploaded to take advantage of the pay per view system?

she's proving that YT is not for everyone anymore: 1. she's a pro, many years of hard work under her belt 2. she already had an audience from Vox/Netflix 3. She already had a network to connect to 4. Most likely paid to further an agenda (that technology is inherently good)

Great video, this channel is one of the best definitely. Growing channel from scratch is never about luck. You have to be ready to get popular as fast as possible. Trends are always the same, just give people some fun and knowledge in your content, and you are good to go. Of course, it can be tough to get to that point when you are noticed enough (that's why I am using a little bit of Famester for every video I post).

Cleo is a one of a kind National Treasure! She is in a class of her own and functions at a level that literally sets the bar in intelligence, content and production. When you watch her videos, you realize that she is genuinely excited about what she does. Her expressions are real, and she is sharing her actual experience in real time. The camera is simply following her around while she enthusiastically learns and teaches at the same time. She is so humble and brilliant, and her enthusiasm is contagious. I don't think she even realizes how great her contribution is.

Cleo has an amazing ability to tell a story or convey a narrative, she is clearly very intelligent and curious, she asks the questions that occur to me and then asks experts for answers. It doesn't hurt that she "presents well", but more importantly she has the ability to break down complex ideas into simpler "bite size" pieces, so it makes the viewer feel smarter for having watched. What really blows me away is the production value in her videos... they don't feel like a "youtuber" video, they feel like professionally produced TV shows.

As I'm sure a lot of people do, I started with Mr. Beast as I felt his perspective would be invaluable given his position on the platform and while those conversations are cool and unique, I find his problems largely unrelatable. This episode, however, is much more in the weeds and interesting to me as a mid-level creator. I'm now more excited to check out some of the lower view count episodes that I've been skipping.

26:15 that's why we love her content more than yours (talking for myself at least), because she doesn't make people feel dumb, in the contrary, she awakes curiosity in such an enjoyable and friendly way, not pretentious, not arrogant, and fabulously well designed. the contrast of her saying: "i want to help people understand" to you saying "I want to see when (not even IF) she loses me"... says it all

The Cleo vs Huge is an interesting convo. I'd urge her to think about scalability, not because of money, but because of career. Eventually she will want to make more impact than the big impact she makes today. Not sure if Cleo or Huge is the more scalable brand but scalability should factor in to the choice of focus. As much as I love watching Cleo for her relatability, she's obviously brilliant about media and her heading a media group would make for a huge set of fascinating content.

Quick suggestions about shorts for podcast could be like commercials, showing the most funny or interesting parts of your video podcast then small parts for intro and rolling the carpet for your guest! you keep also doing a very good and interesting show

Cleo's content is fantastic: optimistic and rigourous. A sweet spot that perfectly matches the successful academic's vibe, and all of our need for hopeful news. The bitter part is coming back to reality after watching, which is harder if your work is a scientist's. Most people don't know much about the video's topics, and even less about how unrewarding and unfair the work can be. Mental health issues are common among young scientists, which get the most frustration, but get the least rewards out of it. If I could ask for something, it would be to see some disucssion of this topic, especially form an optimitsts view. ;) That being said, thanks for the videos. I hope the channel can keep growing and bringing more optimistic stories to everyone.

I agree. I click on cleo's videos with very little interest or knowledge of the subject matter, then she goes into such detail of explaining what it is and how many resources go into making it and the moment I ask "but why" is when she comes in asking the same question but then adding an even bigger question. Why did we build that. Wait why do we want to build an even bigger one?

I had not heard of Huge If True, nor Cleo. So I watched three of her episodes (including CERN), to see what the buzz was about. Certainly the episodes are topical and interesting if the door to them is opened just a crack. And the production values employed are outstanding. But so much of what makes this engaging is Cleo herself - her enthusiasm, how she generates a sense of curiosity by the viewer, etc. I'm reminded of James Burke's Connections series from decades ago. I'll posit that if you take any of these episodes, with the same script and accompanying media, and give it to Taylor Swift (pick your most commanding entertainer) to deliver, they would fall flat. I am now a subscriber.

For me personally, it was the void set by unfortunate sabbatical Dianna Cowern(Physics Girl), an incredibly special physics educator on the platform, that led me discovering Cleo. Cleo is an amazing educator on her own right, and I was only just glad people were still making PBS-style long format tech and physics videos. Her journalism background also makes her video really digestable which I love. Great videos to listen to during Cardio days at the gym!
@NasiFeles
@NasiFeles Ай бұрын
Came to the comments to look/say this exact same thing. I think part of her rise was from the absence of Dianna. They are different but similar. (also, I don't know of they mention it in the video, only 13 minutes into it)
