You already have a camera, then you also have a YouTube account, so what should you do now? Now is the time to make videos! However, coming up with something interesting and new to share with viewers on YouTube can be tricky. Think carefully about your audience and yourself, so you can get ideas faster than you think.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Explore the Target Audience
Step 1. Define your audience demographics
Knowing your audience is an important step in deciding what video you should make next. Who is the viewer of your video? Is it a game player? Locksmith? Do an internet search to find a topic that fits your video idea. Or you can:
- Hold an interview.
- Record your opinion about the genre you specify.
- Predict fan tastes.
Step 2. Familiarize yourself with the fan community
Fans are often vocal when it comes to their opinions and desires. Some fan-fiction (fictional stories created by fans based on existing stories, characters, or settings) have even become commercially successful. Use your knowledge of existing fans, or fans you want to acquire, to direct your creative energy into better works.
Step 3. Ask fans questions via social media
You can more easily communicate with fans because many social media have been integrated. Ask them what videos they'd like to see, or do a poll to see what they think about the question you have in mind.
Step 4. Pay attention to the comments on the videos you like
Fans often talk about their favorite part of a video, so you can take advantage of that. Can you use the same technique? What if you made a video based on their comments?
Step 5. Check fan message boards and various web forums
Whatever channel you have, there are bound to be plenty of forums covering your chosen topic. Which forums are the most active and what topics are being discussed? Is there something your fans really want to see? This can be used as the next video!
Step 6. Document public events
This can take any form, such as the August carnival or the closing of a historic building. You can put the footage together to make a video, or add a spooky sound to give it a different atmosphere.
A themed party is an ideal place to record and get inspired. Seeing friends with their attractive makeup can inspire your own character
Step 7. Try doing a product review
Look for some craft products that you can review and comment on via YouTube videos. You might be able to recreate the item, then make video tutorials of what you've learned.
Step 8. Collaborate with friends and other YouTube users
You can message a YouTube user you admire, and ask if that person would like to collaborate with you on a project. The ideas you have in your head make for great videos when you work on them with friends.
Method 2 of 2: Using Personal Experience
Step 1. Look at your interests
Think about all the things you love about your channel. If you were a gamer, what games have you played? Have you ever learned something unique or acquired a good one? If you are a fashion star, give some trendy tips!! Ask yourself the following questions:
- "How can the things I love connect with my video viewers?"
- "How can I relate this to my own experience?"
- "What do I want to see?"
Step 2. Teach your skills
Can you open canned food faster than anyone? Turn those skills into a video! Many people have unique ways of doing things, but some of the tricks you've learned can attract more interest from the audience.
Step 3. Record your daily activities
Keep a diary containing daily events. Is there something funny? What can you connect with your video viewers on YouTube? Many famous comedians use everyday events to make their jokes. Use unique life events and engage the audience with your perspective.
Some creative people brainstorm as part of a routine. Try taking half an hour to do this so you have time to get inspired and jot down any ideas that come up
Step 4. Write a story script
Even if you want to make a video that's more relaxed and relaxing, you can get inspiration by writing a story script. Gather some complete ideas. The idea may not be as good as a Hollywood script, but it can be a great starting point for creating your video project.
Step 5. Raise a problem
Social awareness is important, and you can contribute to an important cause by raising awareness on your YouTube channel. Don't forget to always respect other people's opinions. Some interesting social issues to discuss include:
- Animal rights
- Environmental protection
- Educational problems
- Community quality improvement
Step 6. Push and bypass restrictions
Try doing challenges with additional limits to test if you can still complete them. For example, if you want to write and read poetry, try rhyming words that end in vowels. It can be annoying at first, but the restrictions you impose can pay off when the audience admires your skills.
Step 7. Get an idea of the events in life
Maybe you have some quirky tips for dealing with the nervousness of graduation, or finding something cute at your sister's wedding. The audience may want to know! Try to think about some of the following:
- Weddings
- Family party
- Baby birth event
- Massively celebrated birthday party
- Wedding anniversary party
- Graduation Graduation
Step 8. Look for the message
Many artists develop a theme that fascinates them, then explore the theme thoroughly. What topics do you find interesting? Maybe this will not only give you an idea for a video, it can also attract an audience who wants to hear your message.
