Welcome to the journey! Another fun walk through the park trails with Loki, talking about whatever is on my mind: music, YouTube, gardening, and just appreciating all the positive things about life.
I did some research before uploading this one to improve the resolution, so hopefully you can appreciate the views in 4K or at least have it not be all glitchy like previous walk & talks.
Let me know your favorite Weird Al song in the comments. Or suggest other artists we should check out. Thanks for watching!
This one looks so much better! Good topics, and Loki is awesome! Love that clip of him talking! 😅
He's gorgeous! One of my pups I had to rush to the Vet yesterday, he was struggling to breath when I got back from my trip =( So he's got some sort of infection in his sinuses, so he's now on Antibiotics. Gamer for years myself, but I've kind of stepped away from it myself. "Homesteading" content is a big thing as more people start becoming self sufficient now days. There are tons of people who do it on YT, so you'll want to give it your own spin for sure. Gardening is my down fall.. lol We just had a Momma bear and her cub show up, then decide to hang around a few days over bird feeders. They destroyed the bird feeders, thankfully my dogs didn't encounter them in our backyard, since they broke down part of our fence to get in, or the dogs figure out how to get out where they came in at.
So far, I think the hardest part with starting a YT channel is making it our own. As far as brand, how you do your videos, topics etc. I started 1 way, then as I played around with stuff, I went another way. As I do more and more, my directiton changed again but still keeping my Vermicomposting as my theme. I really don't want to do shorts, and some guru's say don't, if your channel mostly focuses on long form content. Which with some niche's shorts just don't do the channel justice in my opinion, I think shorts work more depending on what the short is about to bring people, but most cases they just watch the short and thats it. We're still just starting out, and learning. I already know some stuff because my dad did videography and editing, but of course he had Photoshop, Adobe Pro and stuff.. which I do not. So video editing I find fun.
You deserve way more than 91 subs. Vyrotimes can help you with that.
