Thanks For 100,000 Video Views so far guys! In this short video I explain my thoughts on the current recording soft wares that there are out there. For my set- up, bandicam works best as far as video quality goes. I love the quality of the fraps videos, but the huge file size and bad audio quality makes it not the best choice for me. Although, for another pc user, the audio could be perfect, and bandicam may give them problems; it deepens on the computer that you have. -Here are the download links for the programs: -Bandicam: http://www.bandicam.com/downloads/ -Fraps: http://www.fraps.com/download.php -Power Director Pro: http://www.cyberlink.com/downloads/trials/index_en_US.html Here are some instructions on posting successful videos: (1280 by 720p Is one of the best) -Open bandicam and select the "rectangle on screen" Option under the "Target" tab. -Create a recording box that is 1280 by 720 pixles. -Then resize the game's window to be that exact resolution (and if you cannot change the screen resolution by resizing the window, the game options should have a way to change the resolution) -If you want to have your voice in the video, then connect a recognized microphone to your computer and make sure that the computer says that it is there and ready to record. - To test if the microphone works, right click on the volume icon on the bottom of your screen, then click on "recording devices". Once there, right click on the microphone you are using, then click on "Properties". Next, select the "Listen to this device" Box then click apply. If you can hear yourself through the speakers when speaking into the microphone than you have it working correctly. Lastly, uncheck the box and go to the next step. -You must then set a location for your video files to be sent to; you can do this in the bandicam settings under the "general" tab and then at "output folder" - Before recording your video, make a test video to see if the microphone volume is matched if not louder than the games volume (if you do not do this step, the game volume will most likely overpower your voice). -Once you have your microphone ready and the game's volume is set to the right level, you can record your video! (Try not to studder or say words like um, uhh, etc... or pause for a long time. Trust me, it may take a while to get used to talking into a mic!) -You should introduce yourself in a similar way in every video; some example starting sentences are: (These are what some popular youtubers do when introducing themselves) "Hey guys this is ________ and i am back for another video!" "Hey guys ________ here, and welcome to....... "Welcome back to another ________ video......... "How's it going bros________........ etc... - You should also end your video in a professional but casual way; in doing so it is recommended that you remind the viewer to like, favorite, and subscribe. You should also do so on the video right now :P It is also nice if you put together an out-tro for your videos like i did. Also inform your viewers on what is to come to build up suspense. -To keep viewers coming back you must also post interesting, unique, and high quality content that was not just slapped together in 5 minuets. Would you rather view one of the thousands of COD commentaries with no voice over and no explanation of anything or anything that is different from everyone else's commentaries; or would you like to watch an all- knifing game with a funny commentary and a huge kill streak? -To actually post the video in HD, you must open power director then go to the "Produce" Tab then click on "youtube ready", then set the "profile Type" to FULL HD QUALITY (1920x1080). - To make a video in power director, you must click on "file", "import", then "import media files". Then you select the file that bandicam or fraps created. -Once you have the file imported, you must drag and drop it from the top to the lined section on the bottom. From here you can shorten or lengthen the video; you can speed it up (in the power tools), you can place two videos in a once over top one another. The possibilities are endless! - Then finally produce the file in the "youtube ready" tab under "Produce" after typing in your video Title, description, tags, and category. - Tabs are basically the words that people may type into the youtube search, and if one of your tags matches one of the words that they searched, then your video may show up (The more popular videos tend to show up first) -Now you are basically done! You may also add annotations to the videos that you post; and they may in turn lead viewers to other videos of yours. I hope this helps and make sure to subscribe for more tutorials and other awesome videos!
