How To Get Started On YouTube

[@lindabeebe7065]

Make crappy videos. Wow! Thanks for permission to do so. Gosh, there’s nobody out there telling us we can’t make crappy videos. Really. We see so much brilliance on KZbin, that it feels like unless we can just turn on a camera and be brilliant, we shouldn’t bother. Wow. Just make crappy videos. What a breath of fresh air. Blow it out the anxiety and doubts, then turn on a camera. Thank you so much for this insight!

good tips... and i agree, starting by doing a vlogging challenge really helps - especially if you interact w/ others also doing the challenge! :)

Interacting definitely makes it feel like something you can't just quit on, which is easy to do if it's just by yourself (or at least easy for me!)

[@JeniferGamelli]

Such good tips! Ive been on and off youtube for 7 years and I still feel awkward sometimes.

[@jessherselfable]

Yeah, same, especially when I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to film or what I want to say!

Thank you so much for making this video!! You bring up a lot of solid points that I didn't even think about.... I just gotta pick and topic to make a video about and DO IT! I would love to share the video with you once I make it =) Also I remember in a past video you mentioning that you are overwhelmed by the idea of cooking - maybe I could make a video on some of the yummy healthy easy-to-make meals that I have found and learned to make lately? I would love to start a conversation about this!

[@jessherselfable]

Oh my gosh, definitely make cooking tutorials. I'll definitely watch and try to follow along. :)

Hahaha! I still cringe at all my own videos lol! Mostly my voice, like you think you sound okay then playback a voicemail & just think, oh man do I really sound like that!?! Arrrggghhhh! You're doing great at keeping up on posting, proud of ya! If you wanna get real nostalgic I'm sucking bad at palm & hand spins, any advice would be killer! Finally just got shoulder & knees to waist down but iso's & palm spins are still just the hardest ever!!!

[@jessherselfable]

Aw man, I wish I could help there but I suck at palm spins myself! I never took the time to nail them. Isos I could do, though....have I never done an iso tutorial? *checks*

Jess Wagstrom I've stalkerishly watched all you're hoop vids hahah (OCD is fun) & they helped tons, I know you like to teach more on body stuff. I like to do on body most but my transitions are pretty boring, trying to get flashier with it lol. You have great dance style w your hoops I have no rhythm so trying to aim for more circus performer esque moves to add =)
