      We recently started our channel on our 458 spider, @RichReviews, take a look If you're interested! That would be a great video to see though, would help a lot of up and coming channels like ourselves.

    • @EA40
      @EA40 3 года назад +3

      Just gotta know the area, and sometimes it takes luck in making sure places are clear. You WILL get some odd stares regardless. Some people find it really cool, others think you're onto some kind of espionage and could even call you in to the cops.

    I’m a massive petrol head but also a musician and over lockdown I’ve made the jump into creating some RUclips music/guitar content so I would absolutely LOOOVE for you to do an editing video because that’s been the biggest hurdle for me! Been a fan of your video style for years, one of, if not my favourite automotive RUclips channel! Thanks Sam!

  • @LapoftheWorld
    @LapoftheWorld 3 года назад

    Great advice. I think the "just do it" part is key (please don't sue me Nike). I'm not on this level *at all* but my experience getting started was I think typical: Have an idea, sit on it for a year because "it's not a good time" , stress and overthink the first video, first video sucks anyway because you don't know what you're doing, learn from that, get better, eventually find a style and niche and start growing.

  • @FlatCapDriver
    @FlatCapDriver 3 года назад

    Totally agree with the “just going and do it approach”. I started with a £50 cheap camera with terrible audio and been having great fun. My videos are very infrequent and always me just rambling on while driving my 996 or 912 or Golf R or MGB (that feels like a weird set of cars when I see it written down). I don’t have many subscribers but that’s mostly because I don’t feed the RUclips algorithm in a consistent way. I think the advice I’d need is what kind of editing software to use how to set up multi angle shot cameras but I guess that comes with experience.
    Great video though and great advice 👍🏼

    Thanks for another great video. I didn't think the X3 would last long. I also thought that buying an SUV would be a great idea for using as a daily, but then came to the realization that they just drain any kind of joy you have in your life. Get a convertible - you know you want to!

    I'd love to hear more of your insights on filming, editing cars and generally learn from your experience Sam. I recently purchased a 2009 Cayenne diesel which I am turning into an overland vehicle. As soon as we are allowed I am shipping it to South America for a road trip through Peru, Chile, Argentina and Bolivia. Many of my friends have been bugging me to document this trip on YT. Looking forward to more informative videos on the subject, you could turn it into an extra video per week on Behind the Glass rather than use your main channel.

    Hi Sam, enjoyed that and thanks for sharing the way you’d go about doing a video! Pretty daunting I bet but interesting to know what tools you would need to start.

    Nice, Thanks for the heads up on the Hero Audio choice. Being a sound engineer i.e. boom op sound is important. I started reviewing cars I delivered for work and have had a lot of views but not a lot of subs. I started my car playlist through watching you Sam, Seb, SOL, TGE, AHR, mr JWW, Shmee, STRADMAN, Burlacher, Vehicle Virgins, DDE... Yes a lot of car channels. I'd love to colab with some but being up in manchester makes it hard. Love all content and just gotta push. I do Motorbike and skiing videos too.

The knowledge you guys have is beyond gold so sharing it is a real blessing. Keep up the good work. And if you are even in Vancouver BC or plan on coming let me know. There is a big car scene here and great tracks. Would love to show you around and have some meets.
