Great video 👍👍👍👍❤️

[@WilmaDikfittt]

Can you make a video on how to make good Minecraft content? Or how to figure out who your youtube audience is.

[@PapaBoneyinVR]

I thought this was a spam bot comment at first glance. I have a bit of difficulty trying to place avatars for my content, most of the other creators in my niche are either wildly successful and in that "I can post whatever I want and it will work" stage, or in the floundering terribly stage, making it really difficult to learn from them.

[@TedNemeth]

Absolute creator savage. The amount of different camera angles, drone shots, parallel story lines, editing. So much work went into this. Much appreciated.

[@keitaro3660]

yea.. so much work that it's really scary to follow his effort haha

[@jochenradke1430]

….no lack of effort, but I see it differently: I stopped watching after a couple of minutes exactly because any perspective is too short to take it in, a million impressions distracting from the actual massage - sensory overload - more like a neuropsychological test as to in how short a time you can read something….terrible to me….I want to watch in a leisurely pace and take all in without getting a headache…..

[@TedNemeth]

I definitely know what you’re saying. Too fast cuts instantly makes it hard to get emotionally invested in a shot/scene/narrative. I’m working on slowing things down a bit on my channel. Especially because my audience is a bit older 40+. (Not teens/20s) @@jochenradke1430

[@MiddleEats]

Clicked for the advice Stayed for the production

[@SchizophrenicGamer]

Your food is 🔥

[@RyanLeeTVThailand]

Literally this comment.....the guys unreal at content

[@MiddleEats]

@@SchizophrenicGamer thank you!

[@ArtsyIslandGirlJamaicanVlogs]

I like how you always share actionable ideas. Things that I can actually put into place as soon as I'm finished watching your videos. And to top it all off you show that they work.

[@marykirmo]

This exactly

[@judah_frantz]

Yes same here! I'm sitting down building avatars as I watch the video!

[@awakeningwithbrian]

Agreed, his videos actually provide massive value that can be used to get results. Would buy his coaching soon

[@SolidGoldComedy]

Dude. I hate about 99% of KZbin tutorials because I think they're full of crap and only do it for the views. But you my friend are the 1% that I truly appreciate and watch regularly. Thank you for your efforts.

[@CashJordan]

Free masterclass right here 👍

[@videounraveled4715]

What I love about these kind of videos is that you always seem to show something we as viewers don’t know we need. But after watching its almost always, ‘wow, why did I never try this before!’

[@TheFunnyCarpenter]

Gosh that was a great video Ed! Thank you.

[@FilmBooth]

My pleasure

[@EzekJohnson]

With a perfect finish

[@dpgaminghd9588]

Yeah sure Great content

[@campingcarjoa]

Followed some of your advice on my last video. Boy the retention rate was unreal! Thank you sooooo much^^

[@TeachersTVAfrica]

Amazing

[@EzekJohnson]

Ed is one of the realest KZbinrs you can get. His tips work.

[@CheapCharlieChronicles]

The first thing you must ask yourself when making a video is “why would anyone want to spend their time watching my video”. If you can’t answer that question it’s time to go back to the drawing board lol.

[@ShreyBrawlStars]

completely agree

[@Brianycus]

Hmmm I guess this is what I'm missing. The "stay here" factor.

[@FilmBooth]

Very true 👍

[@SchizophrenicGamer]

100% agree.

[@YoungKKVlogs]

lol some people subscribe just because the KZbinr is cute

[@JackRhodes]

Now that’s a cute bear. Also, you’ve got to appreciate the work Ed puts into the writing, filming, editing etc. These videos must take an absolute age to put together from start to finish 🙌

[@PaperZenCeceliaLouie]

Even though I knew the ending, I watched it fully the 2nd time, just to giggle at your sweet puppy. I applaud you Ed! I changed my video to "Ed-Style" and have 69% retention for the first time (typically 30%). Thank you so much!

[@LinLinLavender]

That's great! Congratulations! Do you think there is anything in particular that helped you a lot?

[@PaperZenCeceliaLouie]

@@LinLinLavender Ed says "every second counts". I removed ALL footage that didn't have reason to be there. It reduced an 8 min video down to 5, or a 5 min video down to 2. No intros, and my outro now is the shortest possible. Good luck!

[@LinLinLavender]

@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie Thank you, I will keep that in mind! Good luck to you too!

[@joe9716]

Hey Ed, I genuinely think that was the best video you have ever made. This is extremely helpful information!

[@AyeshaShaSha]

This whole video was absolutely fantastic. I LOVE that you filmed it outside, you kept the bear joke going throughout, the camera angles, sound effects, all while giving such valuable information... Ed, this might be my favourite video of yours!! Thank you so much. I've been really struggling with my views lately and really want that to change... I'll watch this again and take notes and implement what you said!

[@FilmBooth]

Thanks Ayesha, that means a lot to me, I really worked hard on this and I know the idea is complex but the fact that you noticed all of those things I'd hoped you would makes me feel like my efforts were worth it

[@AyeshaShaSha]

@@FilmBooth Honestly Ed I could have gone on... There were plenty of things I noticed. Your B roll game was so ON POINT in this... The amount of research you must have done... The thumbnails for the Coffee Fee channel were really good, little things like when you were watching a video and then the audio switched to how it would sound coming out of your laptop outdoors... You really took us with you outside and it was brilliant. Every video you do is a story... Like a movie sometimes. It takes a lot of scripting, editing, re-editing, adding of effects, and I bet there is so much that you filmed that we didn't even get to see because you wanted to trim the fat. I see it all and really appreciate your work. You've become my favourite KZbinr to watch for this type of content, because you're DIFFERENT. You've helped me become a better editor too. Thank you so much!

[@FilmBooth]

@@AyeshaShaSha thats pretty much spot on what you've said, I sometimes wonder about uploading an unlisted version where I don't trim the fat to show the difference, glad it's helping 😄

[@EspanolAutomatico]

Your tips are a goldmine! But what about us "intangible" content creators? How do we turn "learning Spanish" into a visually appealing thumbnail? Particularly when using a natural method (so the focus is not on the books). It's like trying to capture the feeling of fluency in a single image! How do you show the "desirable result" (fluency) in a visual way?

[@WhattheWhatShow]

It makes COMPLETE sense to create user profiles. Smart businesses do this with products and websites. This is part of “user experience” and it can be a very complicated area to work on.

[@FilmBooth]

Thats it! Its the same as marketing

[@upMETHOD]

Found this channel today... huge THANKS to the KZbin algorithm for getting me here! Most helpful channel I've found on the topic of KZbin and videos...I had absolutely no video shooting or editing experience whatsoever before starting my channel, it's been a huge learning curve and I have depended on channels like your for help. Just thrilled I found you, THANKS!

[@FaithBasedMentalHealth]

This man is a genius. I have never felt such a strong tug to watch the video a KZbinr suggests at the end as I do on his videos. This was like my 4th one straight. I don’t ever do that. I don’t just want to do what he says, I want to do what he does as much as possible.

[@EzekJohnson]

If you’re watching this today, my prayer is that you excel and take your channel to the next level so you can get the views you deserve. Our tips work so keep following them.

[@Coal_swag]

Thank you

[@frances_herself]

Amen and thank you so much. It's indeed a lot to handle. Much love from Nigeria 💖🇳🇬

[@ekactive1]

Thank you man

[@jamesGNicholls]

I've absolutely loved the production value, extra shots and little storylines that go into your videos. Have you already made a video about how you achieve that (i.e. come up with those ideas, etc)? I'd love to know how so I can make my videos better. Thanks and have a good day!

[@worthshop]

Been at this year's without gaining alot of traction. It is difficult to keep going, but I know I am helping people fix things or do projects. Letting them know to believe in their own God given hands. Appreciate the tips and information.

[@theshinyskull]

The fact that this is literally the 7th video in a row of yours that I've watched today tells me that you definitely know your stuff. Great content!

[@DrOmarDanoun]

Since watching your videos now I much better understand my audience and that paid off a lot in engagement and views and making me better at delivering high quality content... Thank you for sharing your experience

[@CreativeCashflow1]

Don't quit your channel just because your friends or family don't support you. KZbin is full of strangers rooting for you!

[@CreativeThinking52]

Amen. Thanks for sharing.🙏👍

[@JashimJalal]

Yeh, easily one of my favorite videos. Always appreciate the effort you put into clearly explaining while keeping it visually interesting and keeping the storyline intriguing. Well done!

[@FilmBooth]

Much appreciated!

[@BSparksGaming]

Great video Ed! Analyze your competitors, review their thumbnails, ideas, and find trending topics... completely agree! Happy you made it out alive 🤣😁👍

[@EnlistedTrailHeads]

Your ability to fill in blank spaces with interesting side bits in your videos to keep me around to the end is top notch, great job Ed!!

[@ZKorvin]

I was in the middle of rendering my new video when I decided to cancel it and spend an extra couple of hours implementing the advice I’ve just learnt from binging your channel. Let’s see if it pays off. Thanks for all the advice Ed, I can see this working!

[@ZKorvin]

48 hours later... "This video is appealing to a wider audience, contributing to 71% more views than usual" What can I say?

[@zerobudgetstories]

the quality production of this channel is sensational

[@JHARTWORK]

I love the way you build your story telling videos for these topics! Your personnality and editing skills are to fall in love for! Impressive work and research!

Thank you so much!!

[@stephen-finance]

I not only learn a lot from the great information you share, but also from how you produce your videos. Great stuff Ed! 😁

[@ThatFinanceShow]

You are absolutely smashing the ‘KZbin creator’ channel niche. The best channel bar none.

[@LawnCareJuggernaut]

Congratulations on 100k subs. I ran in to your channel a few weeks ago and it is very good so far

[@coscorrodrift]

i don't know how you ride the fine line between obnoxious/childish and engaging/entertaining/funny but you do it so well, you're a master

[@OrganicActing]

You know, I think I've learnt more from your videos in the last two weeks (content, editing, sound etc) than I have from the past three years on youtube. Incredible content, sir. I applaud you. 👏

[@FilmBooth]

Thanks :) Glad its helping

[@Lethcode]

since I found your channel mine continues to grow by 15 to 20% a week on viewed minutes. Pretty much continued growth for the last 3 months. Funny thing is i have only been releasing videos about once every 3 weeks the last couple. Thanks for all the great tips and mindset shifts. It really does help people.

[@Lincolnstww]

Great vid as always Ed. I consider what you covered to the be the most fundamental/important building blocks to launching a new channel. I spent 3 months doing "channel audits" in my niche before posting my first video. The answers to the test are already there. I'm not exploding, but the channel just passed 50k subs and is creeping up on 2 million views with only 10 videos posted in 7 months. Everything you highlighted works and should be the starting point for anyone getting started or looking to accelerate their growth. Cheers

[@FilmBooth]

100% this is pretty much what KZbin is about now, being the one with the best idea. The thing is, its flipping tough

[@FutureBusinessTech]

Awesome video, Ed. I love your audience-centric approach and I always look forward to your next upload.

[@Patrickgozur]

Every one of these videos is gold. I feel like I’ve been wandering on my KZbin journey for a year and a half and your videos are the treasure map. Thanks for everything!

[@ItIsWithin]

Most people don't have any idea how much time and effort it takes to make a video like this, basically you are making a movie where you are responsible from A To Z . another amazing video all the best my friend .

[@OurCatioHome]

Hats off to you Ed 🎩. Every word and video clip you produce is the best on KZbin! Thank you ever so kindly!!!

[@Durwent]

Ed personally you have given me a TON of motivation for my own channel, and I want to start pursuing this again because I feel like I really can succeed on the platform now. You have the GREATEST tutorials out there, of ALL time.

[@JovanyYdp]

You should do a video on how to build up a reaction channel. Its a category that I haven't seen any channel such as yours talk about. I think it is a really challenging and complex genre of content. I would really love to hear your input and advice on this subject.

[@jio2699]

I'm totally new to content creation, I really love storytelling but always unsure how to do it in KZbin. Your video is really helpful for me to start in the right way. Hope to watch more from you! 😄

[@MindOverManaX]

THANK YOU for reminding everyone to step outside for a moment! Hug a tree, chase a squirrel or just walk through the woods - something! It is so effective in energizing our minds.

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

I stopped this video four times to make some serious notes. 👋🏼🇨🇦 Ed posts a new video + speedy click = 1000% value.

[@FilmBooth]

Excellent! Hope it helps

[@joshuastaubs4115]

Truly the best channel on youtube for really understanding the entire creation process. Keep it up

[@PropheticMinutes]

Wow I think that was your best video! So many scene changes and camera angle changes it was incredible. Shows how much work you put in it. And yes I have binge watched you and subscribed, you deserve it.

[@WhitepepperFarmshomestead]

As much as I wanted to jump in and comment right away, I waited until the video was over! Once again, you took this video to another level. Since finding your channel I have made two new videos and I am working on my third... and those two videos to me definitely stick out more than anything I have ever made. I put real effort into them, incorporated multiple things you talk about, and its the first time I have been excited about youtube in a very long time. So thank you.

[@AyeshaShaSha]

I had to stop myself from commenting really quickly too haha!

[@FilmBooth]

Awesome! Glad to hear im inspiring you :) Thanks for your comment too, its really motivational to hear that im helping

[@WhitepepperFarmshomestead]

@@AyeshaShaSha Before being a creator I never really thought to wait.. I just jumped right in! Now.. I would rather watch the video first so I can give a genuine comment rather than speaking about something I haven't even watched yet just to be one of the first names that pop up on the comment feed!

[@WhitepepperFarmshomestead]

@@FilmBooth Keep doing what you're doing, and we will all keep watching! You are definitely going places and I am sure I am speaking for a lot of people when I say we are excited to see this channel continue to grow and evolve.

[@AyeshaShaSha]

@@WhitepepperFarmshomestead Hahaha I'm the same! Becoming a creator changes your KZbin etiquette for sure!

[@OniZombies]

I have two major questions for you. 1. Does the uploader commenting and heart comments affect stats? 2. How do some of these tips apply to gaming focus channels?

[@makariespe]

SO HELPFUL. I'm following along step by step 🙌

[@itechgamer]

Those extra elements in your videos make them way more interesting...like the bear in this video....really love the content

[@MSGrantMusic]

Right? It's unreal!

[@FilmBooth]

Ay! This one was a beast :)

[@JohnnyB.]

What an awesome video! I would recommend this one to anyone starting a KZbin channel. It sums up so many good points on how to get creative for thumbnails, titles, and topics which is what I feel people struggle with the most! Sensing high AVD on this video too :D

[@DaveMajor]

Ed....this is gold! I held off watching this because I knew I would need to have my notepad next to me just to get the most out of it! Your vids are so jam packed with info

[@FilmBooth]

Bit of a beast this one :) Glad you liked it though

[@PGBlanks]

Need a James Hoffman collab! I think he's the GOAT of coffee KZbin. The cinematography, editing, and the fact that he was a world barista champion himself all add up.

[@FilmBooth]

yea he is for sure! id say hes a top creator outside of his niche too, i was really impressed with what he does

[@SPrincessbeneficialknowledge]

I.need more views 😅 I like the way you put your video together. Very creative and good idea. About going incognito and analysing successful channels. All your pop ups and story telling is engaging. Fully watched bye benny

[@RobsBushcraftandAdventures]

Just starting to watch but paused to write this comment. So with every vid I do I strive to do better and with my last vids I started getting better views than I've had for a while, but then it came to a holt as I'm only able to put up a vid every 3 weeks due to the time to film and edit them and other commitments in life (work, wife, house reno). I've noticed after 2 weeks the videos stop being pushed as suggested videos, etc and my views drop way off. I can fully understand this happening as new content is uploaded by other popular film makers in my niche. All I can seem to do is feel depressed and just keep pushing myself to make better videos because I love doing it. I'm currently at a bit over 3,500 subs with 76 videos after 2 3/4 years of banging away at it. Thanks for the great videos by the way, I really appreciate them... Rob

[@conduitoffacts341]

Finally, some entertainment information is shared with the public; if everyone begins to edit films like true professionals, it may be time for KZbin to become the best platform, if it isn't already.

[@paraparayt]

I’ve been using your tips for the past few months as I make my KZbin journey. I plan to still watch your video even once I’ve made it big on KZbin because your videos are just so entertaining to watch. I always end up just smiling the whole time even when it’s things I’ve already learned.

[@FilmBooth]

haha thanks :) glad you find them entertaining

[@bananababy605]

My logical brain was telling me that the bear side story was just for entertainment but after having a bear nightmare last night, it kept giving me a spike in anxiety. Educational AND thrilling! Loved it!

[@JoelRosenfeld]

Nice title! Certainly got my attention. I value your advice, and my recent videos have really improved from your suggestions

[@FitLabb]

[@FitLabb]

@@FilmBooth I feel that way about all my videos too. I always leave some golden bits at the end, like hilarious bloopers, or some key nuggets of info that they should know, but sadly most people cut out before that point.
