Do you wanna make your content stand out from the crowd so your videos are more
memorable in the minds of your viewers?
In this video I'm gonna tell you how and we're starting right now!
As people who create videos we want our content to stand out so the people who
see our videos will keep coming back again and again to watch the content
that we make.
If you're selling a product or service you want your content to stand so
that you can get more leads, sales and exposure...so...
I put together a quick list of things you can start doing right away to make
your videos stand out.
The first one is quality. Unless you're doing a vlog a high-quality, well put
together video
is gonna make you stand out more than the alternative because people associate
quality with quality.
Believe it or not making a quality video
isn't that difficult at all, it just takes a little bit more time which is what most
people don't have...
which is why it makes you stand out from the crowd if you put a little bit more
time into your videos.
Another thing to take note of is if you're offering a product or service and
your video is low-quality
it's going to immediately plant in the minds of your viewers that your service or
your product
might not be that great either even if it's the best around.
"That's not fair at all!" It's not fair but you can't hold it against them because
their very first point of contact with you,
your video, didn't accurately represent the quality of your product or service.
And don't get me wrong, I don't mean that you have had the best camera optics
around. I mean,
you can improve your video quality a ton just by having plenty of light even if
you're using a webcam.
And if you don't want to go out and spend money on additional lighting for
your videos
remember that you can always use the sun it's just the most important part of this
is to make sure that you have plenty of light. Of course a good camera is going to make a
big difference in your videos if it's a better quality camera
but the underlying factor here is to make sure that you have plenty of light so that
the camera that you
do have can give you the best results possible even if it's your cell phone or
webcam.
The second way to stand out from the crowd is to make sure that you have good
audio because a lot of people
have horrible audio.
Unfortunately bad audio equals bad video
because it's half of the experience. If you don't believe me you can check out my
audio blunder
right here. I recorded it the same way that I always do
but I had just gotten adobe audition and I didn't really know how to use it yet
and i mix everything on headphones. That might not sound like that big of a deal
but just because it sounded awesome in my headphones doesn't mean it was gonna
sound awesome across the board
and unfortunately I made the mistake of not testing it before i made it live.
But now I have a video that I can reference when I talk about videos with bad
audio.
...But I'm not really sure if that's a good thing.
Making your videos in a quiet environment is gonna give you a better
result if you're making presentation videos or any type voice-over work.
When I make my videos I even turn off the air conditioner so that I don't have
to remove the extra noise it creates when processing my audio.
Since I make my videos in an almost silent environment, when it does come time to
process my audio it
usually turns out pretty good as you can hear right here and it takes me a lot
less time to clean up which
also adds to speed and efficiency and by my math speed plus efficiency...equals win!
Having a lavalier or another kind of external microphone that you can
keep close to you when you're making your videos
is gonna make a huge difference when it comes to the quality of your audio in
your video.
I keep my microphone right here and as an example you can actually hear the sound
quality
as I get a little bit closer to the microphone. The third thing you can do to
stand out from the crowd is to have unique
or massively informative content. A new subscriber, her name is Naomi from Top Shelf VA
has a very cool technique that I had never seen used before
where she uses her green screen and she makes a
window that she can actually lean on and when she puts her hands out it kind of makes everything look
3d really really cool and very clever thing she did with that.
And because its unique I'm standing here in my video
talking about her video and I'm getting ready to tell you that the link to her
video, if you wanna check it out, is down the description below...
the link to her video if you wanna check it out is down in the description below.
See I told you I was gonna say that! Because what she created was so unique
and something I had never seen before it's being highlighted on another
channel,
mine, that she just happened to subscribe to and if that
isn't a fantastic
example of what can happen when you make unique content...
I don't know what is. Thumbs up to you Naomi! Of course there's a lot of
things you can do to stand out from the crowd everything from wearing funny
gimmicky clothes to filming in exotic locations to making insanely unique and
engaging content like the Mystery Guitar Man does. It all works and I'm gonna
elaborate on all of those methods in a video that's coming out in the very near
future
