Heya guys, I just wanted to get a bit of feedback in terms of the “going price” for short form content editing. I run a small channel myself and unfortunately do not have the spare time to edit my stream clips and other videos myself. I essentially would like to know what people think is a good going rate for a roughly 30 second short on Minecraft content? Thank you in advance!

OKAY so I use OBS to stream with my videos and stuff like that, but the issue is that my stream has a 20s delay, which is really frustrating when I'm trying to talk to my chat AND ending my streams, my outro always gets cuts out BEFORE i even try to cut stream, and my fan's chats are also heavily delayed.

I've tried messing around with settings for YouTube and OBS, because again this is frustrating me and i'm heavily hardheaded so I wanted to figure it out myself before asking for help, but it's starting to get a bit frustrating and I want to try to fix it.

I've tried changing the stream on YouTube (by going into livestreams and scrolling down in the settings), to "Low-Latency" and then "Ultra-Low-Latency", but it lagged stream HORRIBLY and didn't seem to be as much of help. I also changed the settings that mentioned delay to a lower number to fix it but it ALSO didn't work, and again, just lagged the stream.
I think i tried other stuff too but it just didn't work as well. It barely changed the amount.

I realize that YouTube and OBS needs to have that delay because of the fact that if it doesn't, it'll lag the stream even more and have more issues, along with the processing of YouTube and OBS compared together will also completely mess up the stream entirely, which would be even more frustrating, but I don't think I need a 20s delay? Is there any way that I can fix this?

Please mind that I'm not experienced with OBS whatsoever. I got recommended to this website after a friend noticed I was struggling OR I found it myself, I don't nessicarily remember which sadly but I'm very much new to OBS and not sure of the ways to get around problems like this or ways to FIX these problems yet. It would help if it was long paragraphs cause i'm better at understanding those long paragraphs instead of the shorter ones.

Hey! I'm building my portfolio as a short-form video editor. I'm looking for real, unedited talking-head or podcast footage to turn into a professional 30–60-second Reel.

I can edit one short clip for free in exchange for permission to showcase the finished edit in my portfolio. I'm comfortable with captions, motion graphics, B-roll, sound design and retention-focused pacing.

If you have unused footage, I'd love to collaborate!

My video has been up for 3 days, but it only has 241 views. Why isn't YouTube recommending it more?

Stats:

- Impressions: 822

- CTR: 10%

- Average view duration: 1:47

- Average percentage viewed: 47%

- First 30-second retention: 60%

- Browse average viewed: 54%

- Watch time: 5.6 hours

- Likes: 21

- Comments: 35

Traffic sources:

- Browse features: 51%

- Notifications: 15.8%

- Channel pages: 11.2%

- Other YouTube features: 8.7%

- YouTube Search: 4.1%

- Suggested videos: 0.4%

Are these stats good? Why is YouTube barely recommending my video after 3 days?

stopped uploading to my old channel Puppetory about 6 months ago. Honestly, I thought the channel was pretty much dead.

But today I checked my YouTube Studio analytics and something caught my attention.

In the last 28 days, the channel reached 221 unique viewers.

178 were new viewers who discovered my content for the first time. Another 40 were casual viewers, and 3 were regular viewers.

That might not sound like much, but after 6 months without uploading, seeing new people still discover my old videos feels different.

It made me realize something. Maybe a channel isn't completely dead just because you stop posting. Sometimes your old content can still reach people.

I'm thinking about bringing Puppetory back, but I want to be smart about it instead of uploading randomly again.

For those of you who have revived an inactive YouTube channel, I have a few questions.

Did you continue with your old channel or start a new one?

How long did it take for your views to recover after returning?

And would you focus on Shorts, long form videos, or both?

I'd genuinely appreciate hearing about your experiences because I'm trying to figure out whether Puppetory deserves another shot.

Hey zusammen!

Ich bin der Entwickler von Epica, einem rundenbasierten Taktik- und Aufbauspiel (spielbar direkt im Browser), das stark von den goldenen 2000er-Jahren und Spielen wie Heroes of Might and Magic inspiriert ist.

Wir befinden uns aktuell in der spannenden Alpha-Phase und ich bin an einem Punkt angelangt, wo ich ehrliches, ungefiltertes Feedback brauche. Deshalb suche ich nach YouTubern, Streamern oder Content Creatorn, die Lust haben, Epica blind anzuspielen und ihre "First Impressions" mit ihrer Community (und mir!) zu teilen.

Kurz zu Epica – worum geht es?

• Taktik statt dicker Brieftasche: Rundenbasierte Kämpfe, bei denen rein die Strategie zählt.
• Absoluter Krieg gegen Pay2Win: Unser Itemshop kommt komplett ohne Echtgeld aus. Jedes Item ist erspielbar, herstellbar oder handelbar.
• Basisbau: Sammelt Ressourcen, baut euer Schloss aus und passt es optisch an (Fantasy oder Sci-Fi).
• Globale Community: Das Spiel ist bereits jetzt komplett in 18 Sprachen übersetzt.

Was ich suche: Egal ob ihr 50 oder 5.000 Abonnenten habt – mir geht es um authentische Spieler, die Bock auf dieses Genre haben. Ihr müsst nichts beschönigen. Wenn euch ein Feature nervt oder ihr einen Bug in der Alpha findet, zeigt es! Genau dieses Feedback hilft mir, das Spiel besser zu machen.

Was ich euch bieten kann: Da ich ein Indie-Entwickler bin, habe ich kein riesiges Marketing-Budget für bezahlte Placements. Aber ich biete euch:

• Einen extrem direkten Draht zu mir als Entwickler (euer Feedback kann direkt im nächsten Patch landen).
• Giveaways für eure Community: Ich stelle euch sehr gerne Gratis-Seasonpässe oder exklusive (aber faire) Start-Boni zur Verfügung, die ihr an eure Zuschauer verlosen könnt.
• Eine Erwähnung/Verlinkung eurer Kanäle in unserem Discord und der wachsenden Community.

Wenn ihr Lust habt, einem ambitionierten Indie-Projekt unter die Arme zu greifen und euren Zuschauern ein faires, klassisches RPG vorzustellen, schreibt mir einfach eine DM oder hinterlasst einen Kommentar. Ich schicke euch dann direkt alle Infos und Zugänge.

Ich freue mich auf euch!

I have this big issue of promoting myself and finding out what works. I used to have a channel, 816 subscribers but it got taken down because YT thought i was 12 when i was NOT, i am 18. Now working on two channels at once and having huge issues with promoting myself and figuring out how to attract the biggest audience.

I'm more focused on my gaming channel however.. My gacha channel im not as worried about JUST YET but gaming is a bit of a struggle..

1. I have had some atrocious CTR’s and even my most recent video is only 16 hours in and <3% CTR. Curious on if it’s already essentially did or if anyone has ever had an experience saving a CTR like this. One time I did, but it got 10k impressions before I changed the thumbnail to where it spiked to like 15%, but it wasn’t enough for YT to keep pushing.

2. I make UFO content. I go back and forth between putting it in the science category when I discuss more of the theorized science, entertainment when I tell someone’s story, or news when discussing pentagon ufo file drops and including news clips. I’m starting to think my videos always do bad when I put it in the entertainment category. I notice no one ever gives tips about what category, so was curious on how much people think this matters. Obviously it matters a decent bit because it’d be useless to put mine into a “lifestyle” or “movies” category for example.

yo, been interested in doing YouTube for a while and I'm looking to partner up with people to learn together to get to a point of monitization at which point I would spend all early channel revenues on paying you and making sure you can quit your job, looking for only the most serious people for this, no one with multiple things on their plate or just use AI for everything but someone acctualy interested in YouTube and video production.

Title explains it, my irl friends don't play video games anymore and my best friend just went into the military and YouTube just isn't as fun without playing with them so I just need somewhere I can get more friends/ppl to play games with and like minded people to make content with

Anyone wanna be a part of a group, I used to make videos in the past so can kinda have editing experience and have make thumbnails before I’m 20m and wanna hol on that yt grind, not talking about just making 2 videos I’m trying to do this consistently, anyone interested send a DM

I wanna try a new series but need people for it, if anyone down dm me please, no script just pure fun.

As the title says, I made the best decision ever.. but not for the reason you think. Back in March I started a YouTube channel with my kids. They had brought it up several times over the past few years. I always told them I’d think about it. Fast forward to March this year. I caved. Hard. I was burned out between work and every day life. I never had the energy to do much after work other than normal cooking, cleaning and sleeping. So I decided to say yes to their request. We started a gaming channel, yeah I know it’s a saturated niche, but it’s what they wanted. I usually played dungeon crawler games like Diablo so I let them pick what we would play. It has been the best decision I have ever made! Not only am I happier getting time with them but I get to game too! We laugh scream and celebrate together and they have introduced me to games I would never play and I’ve introduced them to games I grew up playing. We recently started streaming too! We are small (only 56 subs) and still learning when it comes to editing and what thumbnails work but it’s truly been absolutely amazing going through this with them. We did at least put a spin on our aspect of the niche so who knows eventually we could get to monetization, but for now I’m cool with just getting to be absolutely ridiculous with them and have these moments with them. For context, I’m a Gen X, my son is a Gen Z and my daughter is Gen Alpha. I couldn’t ask for a better team of nerds to bring me joy and share our ridiculousness with the world. Best decision EVER!!

I'll edit for free for experience and to put something in my portfolio I'd prefer doing long form videos

I dont use reddit much so contact me through discord: Melon1921

I am starting a infotainment channel about current political situation. so I want some people to help me like script writers, video editor, people who find stock footages. if there any then pls contact me.

I run a monetized football commentary/documentary channel, and I’m trying to figure out if anyone else has dealt with this.

After my second copyright strike, my impressions basically collapsed. Before that, my videos were getting pushed normally. But now my newer uploads are only getting around 100 to 200 impressions on average, which is extremely low for my channel.

I’m not saying the videos are guaranteed to perform well, but the weird part is that this only started happening after the second strike. It feels like YouTube is barely testing the videos at all.

Has anyone else had this happen after copyright strikes or takedowns?
Did impressions come back after the 90-day strike period, or did the channel stay weak?

I’m trying to decide whether I should keep uploading and wait it out, or start thinking about a new channel later. Any real experience would help.

Hey everyone! I'm a young dad and a small gaming creator. Most of my content is skate. gap clips, and I've had some success with short form. Now I'm working my way into longer YouTube videos and would love to find some other creators to go through that with.
Looking for people to:
• collab on videos or play together on stream
• swap honest feedback on thumbnails, titles, and edits
• keep each other motivated to keep posting
I mostly play skate. but I'm down for almost anything: shooters, roguelikes, survival games. Central time, usually on daily!
Doesn't matter what size your channel is. If you're working on something and want people to grow with, drop a comment or DM me!

Hey everyone,

I am an experienced YouTube creator with 7 years of experience running channels. I know the backend, the algorithm, the SEO, and exactly how to scale a channel from zero to monetization. However, I’m an operator, not a presenter—I am just not good in front of the camera myself.

Because of that, I am looking for a charismatic, storytelling on-camera host to become the face of a brand-new True Crime channel.

🎭 The Vibe & Style:

Think MrBallen-style storytelling, but with a slightly more edited pace. We will be leaning heavily into a premium true crime documentary feel, injecting actual archival clips, photos, and intense visual editing.

📋 What I Need From You:

I am looking for serious, reliable, and deeply passionate individuals only. If you want in, please send me a message with:

1. A brief intro about yourself and your background.
2. A short audition clip of yourself in front of a camera (even just filmed on your phone) showing off your storytelling voice, presence, and pacing.

60/40 Revenue Split:

• The Goal: With my 7 years of execution experience and your on-camera presence, I am highly confident we will be fully monetized and making money by Christmas.

hey y'all, I'm a video editor building up my client base. Right now my only proof of past work is podcast short-form/clip content, I haven't done long-form youtube editing yet, so I want to be **upfront** about that.

To get around the "no portfolio for your niche" problem, I'm offering a free trial edit for any youtuber who wants to test me out. Here's the catch: the trial comes **watermarked**. If you like it and want the clean version, that's when you'd **pay** and we'd start working together properly.

A thing to know before you reach out, I don't do motion graphics, so if your videos rely heavily on that this probably isn't a fit

If that sounds fair, get to me and I'll walk you through it.
