HONESTLY! Starting a RUclips channel is 2024 does feel like it’s too late but it’s NOT! I started my channel and 2023 and looking forward to my growth in 2024 as I become more consistent. The first step is to just start! Don’t talk yourself out of it. Rooting for all new creators. ✨
THIS!! I also just started in 2023 and it's been a very fun journey so far!! So nice to also see other creators like you and I who are at the beginning of our YT journey... We can do it and it's super exciting! ✨
It’s not too late and all! I started in 2019 but I didn’t stay consistent! Since then I’ve kept on going with my channel 💪🏿. I am planning to be more consistent this year! We can do it 🎉
Starting after the summer. Too busy before then, but starting to set up a "studio" in my 2m*2m spare room 😊
I just looked at your channel! You started a few months ago & look! I’m starting I’m officially starting THIS MONTH! Just subscribed to your channel ❤
Yes! I started back a decade ago but not seriously, then I dove back in trying it out creating one per month sticking with it. This year I am upping my videos to two times per month and seeing growth - slow but steady! Plus they are a great addition to my website to help round out the content on there.
At 59 years old and with no experience whatsoever, I've started a RUclips channel just for the hell of it. Absolutely no viewers as yet, but can only get better. Thanks for the tips!
I know someone who is also helping to make great progress on you tube channel. If you want to connect with him please let me know. ❤
“Don’t edit out your personality.” That really resonated with me! SO good!
it's such a fine balance to strike, but so important!
I have Cystic Fibrosis and really want to help others with CF and their families, so I decided to start a RUclips channel to provide educational, inspirational, and informative videos to bring together our community (due to cross contamination we can't spend time together) together. Your videos have inspired me to just get started and use what I have for equipment and knowledge! I appreciate all the work you put into your videos and I truly hope my videos can be as strong as yours. Happy 2024!
For newbies....you don't need an iphone specifically. An Android eg. Samsung is equivalent to an iphone
Exactly! These type of videos ALWAYS talk about using an iphone. Not all of us have an iphone. I have a Samsung.
I use a Samsung note 9
Correct! I film everything on my Samsung and it's not even the newest
So true! I'm still learning, but that's what I use. I think that using whatever you have when starting out is best. Eventually, I will get a better phone with a better camera, but for now, using what I have will work just fine.
me too @@chris.hrndz86
"Don't edit your personality out of the video," is some of the best advice I've heard in a long time, Katie. I'd be very interested to hear more about how you approach being 'real' in your videos. You're very engaging while also being succinct and professional. Not something easy to achieve, and a skill we could learn from you.
I just started taking mine seriously last month
I tried starting years ago but was so afraid and uninformed and didn’t have a niche.
Now that I know myself better I feel ready to dive in!
Not going to stress about numbers, just trying to have fun while posting consistently
😊it’s never too late, just start it now I did it two months ago, you can do it ❤
You should have millions of subs. You have hit so many points that nearly no one else talks about. Great great video!!! (also subbed) and can’t wait to binge.
I don’t think it’s too late at all!! I’ve learned so much by sitting back and watching several you tubers. So many are the same type selling or you tubing about the same things. 2024 is the time to change it up and not be like everyone else!! 😍
I’m a newbie on book-tube and also a planner/ organizer at my core. I loved your tip about a b-roll library and labeling method!! Also keeping your personality is a great tip 💕
Katie, I’ve been on “RUclips hiatus” for a looooong time and this info is really going to help me kick start my channel again. So helpful. Thank you always for what you do and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
sometimes breaks are so necessary!! glad to hear this was helpful for you :)
41 seconds in, love you already. Thanks for sharing this!
You are totally correct, I believe it’s definitely not too late at all to start a RUclips channel for anyone. The audience on RUclips is very wide and it keeps growing. There’s still people somewhere in the globe that are discovering RUclips even in 2024.
This lady right here helped me get over my hesitation to start a channel (a few days ago) Thank you Katie!
I definitely agree with the engagement point. It took me a while with my channel to discover my viewers were here for me because I was here for them. I’m not here for views and clicks. I want to have a community who cares. I just found your videos today and I will be back
Great video thanks for the advice. I started my channel in 2033, so I’m looking forward to growing in 2024. I think it’s important to show your authentic self, no one is perfect so showing flaws can resonate with your community
B Roll of yourself doing different things! That’s genius!
Really impressed by the quality of your videos and your organisation!
thank you!! ❤️
Thank you Katie, you put the calm in starting a RUclips Channel 🫂
I started last year and love the Sony ZV1 and love it, no extra mic yet. I’ve always found your videos helpful, thanks for another great one!
Happy New Year Katie! Such a great informative video. I'm going all in on my RUclips channel in 2024 and these tips are very helpful!
So much great information. Thank you for taking the time to help those of us new to RUclips. Happy New Year!!
Thank you, Katie!! I've BINGED your videos because I really want to start my channel this year. Would you ever make a video on how to make those Premiere templates and organize folders, etc??
Hi fellow Katie watcher! 😊 She actually has 2 videos that I specifically know of where she goes over this. One is called “File organization
hacks for creators” and the other is “5 Quick ways to make content creation easier” just search for it on her channel and enjoy!
Amazing! Thank you so much!!
Just launched my own channel and this is really helpful. Thanks
Happy New Year Katie! I've been watching your videos like crazy the past 4 or 5 months to prepare, and I'm going to start in 2024! I started with just shorts the past 2 months to practice but ready to take the next step :) Thanks for all your advice!
Awesome video! Thank you so much! I love that you showed how easy it is to set up that tripod! Every time I open and close my three tripods each with 2-3 locking extensions on their legs I think to myself that there must be a better way 😆!
Hi Katie. I just wanted to say thank you for amazing content. You always brighten my day and enlighten me with new knowledge. Appreciate you and everything you do. Happy New Years🩵
I love the way you describe everything slowly and clearly thank you
Gurrrrrrlll!!! 😜 you are the best! After trying to find a good Chanel that could guide me with my interest to create my own channel I just find it! thanks for sharing.
Thank you Katie. Excellent! This was very helpful.
Thank you for this video. I found your lense recommendation very helpful. Such great tips. ❤️
Thank you for this! I started a channel back in the pandemic but haven’t been consistent. I am jumping back in now and so pumped and excited for it. 🎉
Katie, thank you so much for the informative content. They are encouraging and put me in activation mode. I have my 1st quarter planned. Now, I just need to do the thing!
that's amazing! you've got this 🙌🏻
Yay!!! You got this!!
Hi Katie, love all your videos, they are so informative. I know this may be specific but could you do a video on how to save and edit from a external hard drive and how to organize your footage and slides etc. Your last video was so good. Maybe like how to keep your computer healthy etc.
This was so helpful! I finally started making vids on my channel back in August and very slowly have been getting subs. This vid was super helpful! ❤
Percect timing for this video, thank you.
The last tip really resonated w/ me. I focused too much on optimizing my videos to be super concise so this was really helpful TYSM
amazing advice, as always! thank you Katie & happy new year! 🎉🤩🌟
happy new year!! ❤
Hey Katie, massive thank you for this video! I loved all the tips and strategies you included, especially about not editing out your personality. It's nice to hear that from bigger channels that I look up to (: very inspiring!
Cheers,
Benny
Soo much helpful content in this that I will be taking and using to grow my channel in 2024!
Thank you for this ✨ it’s so difficult getting started, but this info is helpful!
You are so so good at this. Thank you for a wonderful video.
AWESOME. Saving. Thank you Katie! 🤩🤩⭐️⭐️
I really like this video . I also like how you show both the iPhone take while using your camera . I feel like I can do it !
I just got hired for a shoot and have been considering a RUclips channel also. Thanks so much for your awesome videos. I come from a News background and don’t know much about the new digital gear. I am so happy it’s much cheaper and lighter though and yes it’s so nice to be more discrete with your phone or a smaller camera. Thx for the links too!
oh my god 😭 i just discovered your channel and am really wanting to get serious about a youtube channel and eventually a podcast and your lockscreen being the jonas brothers HAS to be a sign i’m in the right place 🥹
I am a new subscriber, and I am so glad I found you. This content is so informative. I have a Podcast and seriously thinking about doing RUclips within the next three months.
Katie, I really appreciate your content full of your experience. I so want to start my own presence and your practical advice is so helpful. When I finally do it I will let you know!
Include your personality. Love that tip!
So glad to have found your channel. I’m just starting and have no idea of what to do.
OMG I love that idea or renaming the b-roll clips like that. Genius. Gonna use that for sure.
I actually really enjoy seeing someone's personality shine through and getting to know the person a bit so I'm really glad you talked about not editing out personality. Great video so thank you! Very good information from a total newbie. 🙂
True story- I watched this video, remembered the EUCOS tripod, and bought one
Then I felt guilty I didn’t do it through your affiliate link 😂(I’m an entrepreneur too)
Turns out they work well as low budget tripods for cameras too, as long as I set and point them without needing to swivel.
I came back here to go through your link this time- and bought two more EUCOS tripods.
Your content is great! I’ve had a show on PBS but was always in front of the camera. I’ve been learning a lot from you and other creators on YT. 🙌
I’m just getting the hang on making longer videos after posing shorts for a whole year. I took many notes and will start applying the advice. Thank you! ❤
Great advice Katie. Thank you so much. Do you have recommendations for lighting too?
I love all your videos and you are so great at explaining everything! One thing about me is that if I click on any person's video I always watch the whole thing lol. I feel like if someone were to watch one of mine I would really appreciate them watching mine through also. Thank you so much Katie.
Just started my channel a month ago. Learning heaps and videos like this are great. Suggest watching this a couple times as you miss parts first time round. Great work 👍
Inspiring :) I love your positive energy Katie! I'm keen to give RUclips a real shot this year :) Thank you for sharing :)
I just started , thank you for the information.
I just started my RUclips channel and Im still trying to navigate the platform...thanks for the video
Thanks.Your video is motivation for my SHORT video channel 👍
Thank you so much for your video and info! Xxx
Thanks Katie. ❤
My New Year's resolution was to start a RUclips channel. I wasn't sure how it was supposed to go I had no idea the only ideas I have are the things that I want to share which are about 5 different subjects. I don't know that if that is doable after watching you. I am much more confident that this can happen that I can actually do this. But I think I'm gonna really need your help. You are amazing, you make me feel like. Yes, I can really do this. We'll stay in touch. Or I shall stay in touch.
Hello everyone! ❤
Definitely start your channel, its fun and rewarding and you get to connect with others that enjoy what you create. I'm only small but growing, I love making videos and helping others.
It's scary at first but after I made a few videos I was shocked at myself from thinking why was I so stupidly scared to even put 1 video out!?😅😮
Remember.. "EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO OFFER." ❤😊 Now go start, it won't start without YOU ! ! ~x~
I started mine and it’s going to take a lot to get it where I need it. But I’ll be doing podcast where people can share their rescue animal stories or any story that is relatable to heart warming animal stories. I also share some health related content. I still film on my I-phone 13.
Been wanting to be a youtuber since I was a kid(i’m 18) and finally actually started doing it in November of last year! I still struggle with ideas and how to get people interested in watching. I post about it on my instagram and snapchat for friends and people that follow me but I doubt they actually watch them. I also always ask on my instagram story for video ideas and Q+A questions and people never respond, so those are my real issue! So thank you so much for this video!
Do it anyways don’t care about the people :)
Thanks for this video! I am really focusing on RUclips this year and all of this info was super helpful.
I subscribed you 😊
I’m so excited to finally do this thing. 🎉🎉🎉
I subscribed you 😊
This was SOOO great! Thank you so much!
I subscribed you 😊
Happy New Year! 😎✌️
I subscribed you 😊
Great work! How do you do it - I watch you for more than a year and still fill inspired after videos for beginners, you always bring some new perspective in them!
Thankyou Katie this has been very helpful. I love the Van life im heading that way this year. travelling Yogi so this information is great for me to get started :)
Thanks for a great video, love your style. New subscriber 😊
You made me happy. Thank you. Video is amaze-balls! ❤
I can't find that tripod anywhere. Love your stuff, btw. Really great info. Thanks for consistently posting and helping the community.
Thanks for this encouragement
the sound effect and floating gear at the start reminded me of Crashbox (from HBO Family now on Disney +)
I just subscribed to your channel. The reason is you’re mellow to the point supportive personality. Just thought I would mention this in case the feedback helps you to stay true to who you are in the future by recognizing that this is a strength unique to you.
Love your videos! ♥️ May we all grow in 2024 🌷
Great video. Looking to up the video content in 2024. Let’s goooo!
Im new to your channel and you had very informative content love it.
Thank you Katie for the tips! Really need one especially on the strategies that u mentioned - need to keep that in mind 😉😉
Thank you for this informative video. I am watching a lot of videos like this trying to find one that is relative to my content. I simply do a 3-4 minute video to entertain folks with one of my alter egos and simply get curious about maximizing what I can do. Not for money, but for fun. I should probably be on tictok instead of youtube, but don't want to.
Thanks for the tips
I have a van so it’s good to know you’re a fan of that content 🤣
Katie, nice job...I do like the pacing of your videos, as they don't make me stressed like so many other videos coming from young people nowadays. Yes, it's a hard balance, as you say, to include your personality (your personal style) in the video; but, at a certain point, the creator just has to accept that not everyone will like his or her individual style and presentation. Honestly, the best part of being 65 is that you no longer care about whether people 'accept' you, or whether your tone is not to their liking. P.S. Your music choice underneath the presentation here is spot on, just matches the nice balanced informative (but no manic) conversational tone that you have. Great job, overall, excellent information, thank you!
I just started my yt channel last month ❤️ it’s never too late!
I subscribed you 😊
I hope to start my vlogs in aphril so thanks for the video !
thanks for the advice! just started doing youtube last month.
i posted my first youtube video a few days ago after years of wanting to but being too scared. but i’m sooo happy i did and i’m excited to keep creating!! this video was clear and has great advice for beginners like me, thank you 💕 just subbed!
omg just checked it out and i’m obsessed!! definitely subscribed!!
I need help as well. I'm new to RUclips
I subscribed you😊
@@sovimean8 Hey did you see a error in your youtube studio about *data is underreported
Thanks for this!! 🥰
Absolutely seconding that youtube is like the new TV. My channel is *FINALLY* gaining momentum, and honestly so many people are watching my channel **literally on tv**.
It is never too late to start something you have the desire for! I start my channel last year, just out of curiosity. There was a whole week of where I would think and think of starting it, so finally one Sunday afternoon I spent couple of hours of trying to shoot a video. It took me quite a while, but I made one. You need that 1st one to start and after that you have to be consistent. Over the summer I stopped of making anything and that was my mistake. Working full time job and now when I just entered the college life, I promised my self and the small audience that I built that I will make 1 video a week. That will keep me on the loop and to be consistent. It is very hard for me to speak. Being a foreign person and trying to say all the words I want sometimes I stop quiet often to think for something, but with practice and checking out other youtubers for suggestions and some friends help I learn how to cut things I don’t need. Overall it is great experience and it just adds a little more knowledge to my skills. So even if I don’t make a big channel it is very refreshing and fun to make a video❤
Helpful video, Katie. I love the DJI wireless mics and have also switched to DaVinci Resolve. 😊
I subscribed you 😊
I'm so happy I found your channel, informative and not intimidating!
so many fantastic tips ☺☺
Yay shout out to us 🥰🥰 thanks Katie ❤️ 🎉
