Reflections

When I was a kid, I wanted to make YouTube videos, but I was much too young. Several years later in 2020, when I was more mature and had the idea resurface, I decided to pursue that interest and made videos of me playing games. My main reason came from me just wanting to put myself out there. I highly doubt my channel will ever be significant, nor do I plan on getting actual revenue or a job from it. It's just for fun.

Because of that interest, I took filmmaking classes in High School.

Another impactful thing about my channel is that a lot of the time, my main content doesn't reach people. Some videos, like independent ones or ones based on content that isn't mine gets plenty of views. But I get little to no views on my Minecraft SMP videos. The reason why I see this as a problem is that if I had people engaging and commenting, I would know what I am doing good and what I am doing bad. If I knew this, maybe I could get my content to more people. But because of the lack of engagement (and views), I am unaware what I can do to improve view count and video quality.

I think that in order to solve this problem, I can work on making my videos have clickable titles and thumbnails, but I don't want to use clickbait or latch onto internet trends like "I survived 100 days in Minecraft Hardcore" because I just want my content to be genuine, even though that might not be as popular.
