Hey Nick. Good first video. Would have been better if the video exposure was better. It's a tad dark.

I admire your enthusiasm and your wanting to share the vaping experience and the benefits derived thereof with the world, however, I would suggest that you figure out how your videos will be different from all the others out there. Why would someone spend time watching your channel as opposed to all the other vape related channels? Is there a particular niche that you will concentrate on? Is there something more that you can add to the information already out there? Will you make people laugh or give them a different view point to ponder?

One of my pet peeves when watching these videos is that the host vapes on video. I think that's rather rude because now I've got nothing to do but watch you take a drag. Unless you're trying to demonstrate a particular technique/build that shows how to develop huge vapor clouds or something along those lines, it's kind of pointless to make your audience sit there twiddling their thumbs while you take a toot, no?

Don't mean to rain down on your enthu; you come across as being very sincere and likable so I'm giving you my honest opinion for what it's worth. I wish you good luck and hope to see you create a successful channel.

Thank you very much for the insight. It has opened my eyes a little and I do see where you are coming from. I guess I never really looked at it from that perspective and I really do appreciate the advice. I will definitely be putting that into consideration when planning my next video out.

Hey Nick, welcome to ECF. I agree, that was a good first video. And I think it was kind of a difficult one too because you were not reviewing anything so there was only the introduction to present. Also agree about it being a bit dark. I think good lighting and a good background would really help you.

I have one other suggestion. I would plan the next video with bullet points of what you're going to talk about. Big text just beside the camera where you can glance at it once in a while to keep yourself on track. I think once you get a few of these under your belt it will become much easier and you'll probably not need it any more.

Best of luck with it :thumb:
