Try and talk about a subject, everyone can watch your gameplay, so talking about it can sometimes make the video a bit dull. Always talk about a good subject to keep people interested Smile

Literally anything, if you are new to commentating, talk about yourself games you used to play, what you like about them etc.

If you don't have much confidence, do a dual commentary with someone, it will help boost your confidence a bit Smile

Yea maybe use the ak47 one day and do a whole gameplay on that..maybe say some facts - how much it costs, was it widely used in any wars, does any country(s) in particular use the gun etc etc...

Have seen reviews of all of the guns, but maybe if you did short clips off all guns in a category? Like do all of the SMG's in the SMG field Smile

Tips

  • Start with a short video
  • Tell about a funny story at school
  • Mention parts of the gameplay that stand out, but not the whole thing
  • Be upbeat, don't act like your depressed
  • Write down what you want to talk about before you start the commentary
  • Try doing a dual-comm with someone interesting
  • Use a variety of weapons
  • Be yourself, don't try to act like someone else
  • Talk about topics relating to the CoD community

Hope this help :y:

And so do you reckon i should start with a little background info on me? just as like my first video, and i dont know if its just me but you have to be lucky to get big on youtube, however i see alot of people give up early on, they dont upload videos enough like once every 2 days, there time between uploads is like 3 weeks Smile anymore ideas? i need a unique selling point. Another idea i had was like doing a funny series like pissing people off online, however a machinima guy already does this, any more ideas for a unique selling point, i will give a reward of 15k vBux to anyone who comes up with some good ideas

Your Question: so do you reckon i should start with a little background info on me?

My Answer: Yes, definitely do that. People like to know a little background info on who is behind the mic.

My Answer: 1 video upload per 3 days to me seems like the best. 3 weeks between uploads, and people will forget who you are. I would probably watch a series of you pissing a guy off. If done well, people will find you very funny. Don't be bothered that someone already does it, just add your originality to it. :y:


Could I have a link to your YouTube so I can check it out? You may gain a subscriber Smile
