Thoughts On

Guys, i touched on this idea briefly on my recent tweets, not like many people pay attention but still.
Im going to be launching a Thoughts On series, and i have several reasons for this.

There seems to be a lack of opinionative videos out there and instead are bias to please their fanbase.
I have nothing against pleading them but im not changing my views to please other people ;D

So im going to be starting a Thoughts On series, its a mixture between a review and personal opinion on games.
Ill be either playing games ive already played through, or ill be playing demos available on the Steam/Playstation Store and ill give my first impressions.

Hopefully this brings out my communities opinions in the comments second.

The Thoughts On series are going to be short snappy videos, hopefully informative, opinionative and every episode will be uploaded here, as i want to start getting traffic to my blog.

I hope you stay tuned in for the series

The channel it'll be uploaded to: http://www.youtube.com/user/wumblr

Ragecomics

Havent laughed at a rage comic in a long time.
They are massively repetitive, but, this one just got me.
I have no idea what it quotes, but i just broke down in tears.


If anyone could tell me what this quotes, if you found this funny.
Comment below, ahaha.

Tips for Commentators and New YouTubers


I have no problem with helping other people off their feet with YouTube, so sure, ill give you some tips, best of luck.

Tips:
1) Try and ensure the best quality
This means video quality AND audio quality
Audio quality is a lot more important than you think.
Dont be afraid to splash out on a better mic for crisp commentary

2) Be original
Try and get a piece of paper or open MSPaint and Mindmap
Try and get creative with your friends,
No one wants to see copies of the same thing 100 times, for example, Road to Commander series.

3) Be energetic
Have a coffee or a chocolate bar before recording

4) Commentary
Get a decent mic.    
Low price: Microsoft LX3000 Headset (£30)
Middle Price: Turtlebeach or Astro Headset
High Price: Blue Yeti or a Consender Mic

If your going to go for the high price ones, if your rich or something, id suggest splashing out on a pop filter and an arm for it too, so it holds it away from your face aswell as holds the pop filter in place.

Make sure you have a sip/glass of water before recording so your throat is clear and not groggy

Have a vague idea on what topics your gonna mention and base the commentary on,  no need for a script, i never do that, i just have 3 vague ideas and then mumble about them..  It seems to work, no? ;D

5) Network
Interact with the community, Checking out my channel/channel comments is a good way to find out whos active in the community. Also, it depends what community your in

FPS guys need to go to these channel's channel comments and then branch off to people who've posted from there;
