LET’S TALK FOR A BIT | Taking a quick break from YouTube Today, I wanted to sit down and have a quick chat with you, about some things going on with the channel. Thanks so much for joining me! I’ve been on YouTube for a little over a year now and I can’t even say how much I’ve grown to love it. Even though I’ve always been a bit camera shy, some things have always come naturally to me, like the sort of videos I wanted to make and the topics I’ve wanted to cover. Making and editing videos however, was totally new to me. I had absolutely zero experience with being in front of a camera, editing, or even any knowledge about how YouTube works as a platform. So these were things that I’ve had to learn from scratch. Over the last year, I’ve experimented a bit with different styles for thumbnails, editing etc. I was able to learn a lot because of that, but I haven’t really been able to create the visual side for SHZ that I’ve always envisioned. A recognizable identity that truly fits with what the channel’s about and how I feel about it. I’ve also been using a very easy, but quite limited, editing software, that I feel I have explored every possible option in. So that’s why I want to take the next bit of time to work hard on upgrading my videos and the way the channel looks and feels. To make it better overall, a fresh coat of paint if you will. And to learn a new editing software. I’ve decided to allow myself the time and mental space to work on this upgrade and really do it well. Which is why I’m not going to be uploading new videos for a few weeks. With this video, I wanted to let you guys know, so you won’t be surprised or worried if you don’t see a new video from me on Saturday. I can’t say exactly how long the break will take, I’m guessing it’ll be around a month. So I’ve got a favor to ask of you. Please stick with me and make sure you are subscribed, so you will not miss it when I get back with a new and freshlooking SHZ. Another thing is to check if the bell icon is turned on, because YouTube does not always show you a new video when they are uploaded, even if you are subscribed. This way you’ll be sure to get a signal when I’m back and there’s a new video up. I truly hope to see you all again soon! Thanks so much for your support, always.
