[@Something_something143]

Thank you for making this vid! I am wanting to make a vid!

[@aaronwhitefoot]

It's really hard at first. Just take your time when making the videos and don't burn yourself out because it doesn't blow up over night. Learn editing that fits your style. Make sure to get lots zoom in and outs and lots of pictures. Gopros and a good camera always help. It helps to have a good pic or catchy picture for your thumbnail. Learn how to do slow mo's and I got the music app so I didn't run into copyright problems. Music that copyrighted was a big problem at first for me. Make sure to look over and over for typos. Have someone else even look over for typos. I make them all time. If you use imovie make sure to put 1080 pick in front of your video and the delete when done or it will be 760. I always ask friends to share it on their social media for more views. I have crumby wifi and it takes a long time to download so i save it to disc and take it to a faster place to download. I noticed the caption normally gets the video into the algorithm. First time, how to, stuff like that. Good luck everyone!
