Now, turn on the camera and start talking, keep retaking the video until you get bored, you don't have to do it all in one take. Then chop 90% of the crap away in editing,
But I'm trying to capture the zeitgesst of modern youtube channels!
Well, if you want to follow the lead of the two best Youtube channels in the world, you'll need an annoying Australian accent like me and Dave.
Dude, the magic of youtube is in the clickbate. Keep the same style and upload regularly. By the way, you nail it with the names, like ¨MyTimeIsMoreValuableThanYours¨ its simple hilarious.
I should also upload the first video to my channel.
is there already a channel?
That's because you're thinking too much.

That is a known defect
You're not the first to notice.

Not yet.
I've been unable to work myself up into a state of the necessary self-confident frothy ebullience
or, is this the Peter Principle kicking in ?
What an excellent clip; well worth disinterring it
I've been a fan of the Peter Principle as long as I can remember.
My first two promotions were meaningless. My next promotion was also meaningless, but I argued unsuccessfully against it.
Apart from that I've been able to engineer situations where hierarchy was more or less irrelevant. In one particularly fun and good job, I had my formal boss formally working
for me.
Another very useful principle: obtain your "drop dead money"
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Drop%20dead%20money
"...and so, we had this guy - terrific guy - who was a computer guru, and could do anything he wanted with computers, and we promoted him. We put him in charge of the sound effects in all our new videos. And that's where he showed all his incompetence..."
For sure having enough on the side to be able to think coldly about your current employment situation is a huge plus. The things we are able to do to keep our current situation, out of "fear", are sometimes very, very dumb in hindsight.

There is an interesting corollary to what he says about inappropriate promotions, that I've seen people from numerous organisations report, and its inappropriate lay offs. In a lay off many of the very best people saw it coming, and found a way out before the event. Doers tend to make enemies, so many of the most valuable people get laid off by people they have pissed off. There is a third interesting group, though. which is talked about less. They were relied on heavily by people all over the place, but didn't have a single role that in itself made them so valuable that they survived the lay off. Yet it was clear to most people that they were the most valuable in the organisation. Without them things go very badly down hill.

Yep I concur on all points. Same experience. That means that quite often, during lay offs, the idea that companies take advantage of this to get rid of the "dead weight" is a false one. I've seen people making "lists", and that was never pretty.
How can I start as a new YouTube video creator? Would you mind sharing some more information. Have a very good day!
Have something to say that is worth other people spending their lives watching. Avoid "me too" and "I'm here" content.
Have something that
requires moving pictures; if not then write a blog.
Edit edit edit. Remove all "ums" and "ahs" and "talking heads". Speed up the boring bits.
