So, for my 2019 New Year’s resolution, my resolution was to be more creative, so my solution for that was to start a YouTube channel and start making videos. I watch a lot of YouTube, like, probably almost an unhealthy amount, so I had a pretty good idea of what kind of videos I wanted to make. The video I submitted is a video that I made over the span of month and is about the game Super Smash Brothers Ultimate. The video probably would not have taken as long to make if I had already been familiar with the software I used, which is Adobe Premiere Pro. I am currently working on my second video for my channel (which is named Davitt), in this video, I attempt to play Fortnite with a Gamecube controller.
For my video, I took a lot of inspiration from numerous YouTubers, mostly PeanutButterGamer, AntDude, Caddicarus, brutalmoose, SpaceHamster and ProJared, these are all great channels and if you are interested in video games, you should check them out. I do not normally watch a lot of video essays in my normal YouTube viewing, but a YouTuber I recently found has really caught my attention. His name is Ryan Hollinger, he creates analytical video essays mainly discussing horror movies and the different elements in them and how the movies themselves affected him. His videos are very entertaining and informative, and he gives a lot of detail and demonstrates his knowledge of the topics, but without making it seem condescending in anyway., If you are a fan of horror movies at all, or just like video essays, then you should check him out for sure. I have really enjoyed the past couple of weeks in class and have been having fun creating these mini-projects and am looking forward to whatever we do in the future.
