I've essentially only made "talking head" videos. They are easy to film and conceptualize. But it was hard to get my personality to fully break through on camera.
I had some friends say that I come across as too serious in my videos (I'm quite a jokester in real life). So I tried a completely new format– a mini sketch! It's pretty embarrassing– my acting is not so good, but it was a BLAST to make.
Plus, it helps me introduce more play into the video.
I've seen folks like Captain Sinbad mess around with different comedy sketches, and it's a fun way to spice up the channel and attract new audiences.
We'll see how well it performs. But more importantly, I broke past some fears of mine, and really tried to find more of my voice.
