Hey NGU,

I have decided to post this as I am fusy about what commentarys I enjoy watching (This guide reflects my personal feelings and beliefs so please do not hate).

Video Quality

First Thing I find a commentary should have is a good quality video. The last thing I like watching is a video which has been recorded through a hand held camera. The quality is poor and eventually annoying. So one thing I recommend is if you are wanting to start commentaries a Capture Card is a MUST HAVE. Buy either a [ame=https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pinnacle-Systems-8230-10063-01-Dazzle-Recorder/dp/B001918NLC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1274833119&sr=8-1]Dazzle[/ame] or an [ame=https://www.amazon.co.uk/EasyCAP-Audio-Video-Capture-Adapter/dp/B001BWU8US] Easy Cap [/ame] , That is definatly what you wanna start off with ,quality wise.

Video Content

Next Thing In a MW2 Video is I don't enjoy watching someone stay in one square metre the whole game I would prefer someone went 20-7 rushing with a Mini-Uzi than someone with an ACR who went 40-2 sitting in a corner with coldblooded and Ninja. So definatly think about what sort of gameplay you are uploading before you do so as it may not be what your audience is looking for.

Commentary

Another thing is during your commentary don't commentate as if we are blind, for eg, "There I kill a guy running towards me" <---- That is implying I am blind and can't see that he is doing that already. So carefully watch what you say . Also on the topic of commentary please have a decent microphone so your viewers can actually hear what you are saying, So speak loud & clear with confidence :evil: .If you are really enjoying commentating etc. I recommend buying a decent microphone for your commentaries. For mine I just use my Turtle Beach P21's as my Microphone but if you don't I recomend a decent [ame=https://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-980186-0914-USB-Desktop-Microphone/dp/B0000ATCOR/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1274833626&sr=1-3] Microphone [/ame] for around £10/$16. They will dramatically improve your audio quality . Another piece of information about Commentating, you want your commentary to be just as interesting as your videos if not more interesting,This guy is an example of a commentator whom I enjoy there commentary over gameplay, [ame=https://www.youtube.com/user/tejbz?blend=2&ob=1]Tejb[/ame].

Chill

This is a key element , If you are tense or nervous you can tell through the commentaries, This is completly understandable for your first few commentaries as it is slightly nerveracking although try to loosen up and just chill. Do this for fun just chillaxe

Additional Options

One additional option is to have a layout on your video's similair to one of the commentator SeaNanners this can show your Gun set up, Killstreaks, Perks and whatever you want . Also I enjoy commentaries with something out of the ordinary or makes me laugh at how wierd something is or something that is Unique in your Videos......What makes your Videos better to watch than the rest. -Thanks to Rjive for That


Thanks for Reading
