HOW TO MAKE YOUTUBE VIDEOS USING PHONE

You can make YouTube videos on your phone and edit them either on your phone or computer. Some tips you must keep in mind while making YouTube videos:


  • Keep background noise slow

Keep the background noise slow, if there would be a lot of background noise then the audience would not b able to hear you. This would eventually result in a decrease in the audience’s interest.


  • Keep your content original

In vlogging, you have to pay attention to your content as it is the main thing audience is viewing. If your content would be copied or be taken up from someone else’s video, it would result in plagiarism.


  • Edit your videos

Editing your videos is very important as there might be some titles you want to add, some clips you want to delete off, or some effects that you want to add can be done while editing the video. 


  • Being original is important, not perfect

Your content must be original. It is not important that your video has to be perfect. We all are aware that nothing comes with perfection. Audience doesn’t want perfection but they want to see the original you in the video. So, try to be original and it should not be like you are just reading your content. You need to enjoy it fully so that your inner self comes out.


  • Ensure good lighting

Keeping good lighting in the background and your surrounding clean gives a good effect on the video. If you sit in a dull area, the audience would not be interested in watching your video and would skip to some other video which is not the thing we want.
