Prepping to start my own YouTube channel and picked up:

iPhone XS Max

DJI Osmo Pocket

DJI Wireless Module, Controller, and Mount

Lightweight 50" Tripod

Aluminum Osmo/Phone holder and mini tripod

Lavalier Mic

I know the Androids are technically better quick cameras and videos but I, the wife, and friends are and have been an iPhone people, the DJI apparently works better with the iPhone, and after a few days I am perfectly happy with the pictures the iPhone has taken.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Look for the channel soon-ish!

Oooh new channel to subscribe to! Would it be straight up car reviews or more?

Good luck!

Mos tly reviews but special drives, events, and random Lane cars will not be uncommon .

I have 250 subscribers and over 100,000 video views. My strategy? Just make videos about cars that aren’t often talked about. You’d be surprised what people are interested in. Most of my videos are recorded in one take, and I usually don’t even bother to change the thumbnail (because I don’t know how on mobile).

One of my friends did this strategy, but he has pretty plain thumbnails and some iMovie editing. He just started filming his parents’ cars with his phone, as well as loaners he gets from the dealer. He has over 6,000 subscribers and almost 5,000,000 video views. He barely uploads anymore, too.

Yeah, I think I’m going to try something between Doug and Farrah. Intro, talk about the exterior of the car after a few panos from the DJI, then Interior shot of me driving and giving me feelings. 8-10 minutes max.

What does 100k views equal in $$?

I don’t monetize it. The views are luck.

That sounds neat. However, if you want it to be additional income, I think you have to have 1,000 subs to apply for monetization now.

Yup. I’m hoping its income in the future but for now, just trying to build a channel and a website.

Good luck! I can always use more automotive content to watch! :D

What’s the channel, or doesn’t it exist yet?

I have my own channel that I am hoping to sporadically upload some more specific vloging / car modding, etc type videos to....there’s a few videos up now, but mostly short clips of people’s poor driving and one or two driving videos of longer drives from my dashcam set to music. :)

Not hoping to make any money off of it or anything, more just as a for fun idea!
