Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “MKBHD YouTube Tips | #2”.
Hey guys in this mkbhd video we’re going to be taking a look at episode, 2 of youtube tips. And yes, this episode is about graphics. So in this episode, i’ll just be talking to you guys, basically and giving you guys a few uh imagery of the following things that are pretty important to youtube. Graphics. So pardon me if i look to the side, which is where my notes are you’re, going to want to have a logo a channel, design or banner.
If you happen to be a youtube partner, a video banner which is above your video, your intro, which is actually a moving graphic and as an added bonus, you can also have a watermark. Now i actually have been changing around with my watermark a little bit. So i just kind of have like a temporary watermark that you guys can check out and leave feedback on, but you also might be interested in making all these things in the same sort of color scheme to make it easier to remember. So, as you can probably already tell, all of my graphics are in some sort of form of red black and white, and the three colors combined happen to be my favorite colors, but those three colors together are pretty important to a consistent color scheme. Now, how exactly do you go about creating these images? Well, there are a number of ways that you can try and a number of ways that you can let other people try. My intro was created using a template and using a tutorial from another youtube user. I don’t even remember where i got it, but it took me a couple days to actually put together and it’s only five seconds long if you want to hold an intro contest to let other people who are already watching your videos actually try to make an intro For you, you can or use other people’s tutorials to do so with still graphics, like your channel design, your video banner or your watermark, i really suggest getting getting to know, is one of my favorite pieces of software. It’S free, it’s an alternative to photoshop cs5 and it’s almost as powerful.
It’S a very, very powerful piece of software. So if you get to know – and i think you’ll you’ll find that that’s one of my favorite pieces of software and could be one of yours – you can make some really nice graphics. Now my channel banner and background were both made with photoshop.
However, my video banner, my watermark and all the other still graphics on my channel were made with so that goes to show you that it can be pretty powerful. So overall, in my opinion, it might not seem like a big deal to you, but i think that when you’re, just starting out or when you’re actually building your brand, it can be a really good idea to establish a really solid color scheme that people can remember. You by whether it’s a blue and white or red and black or some orange and black, or something crazy. But honestly it’s up to you and you can. I, like, i, suggested, try to get to use and watch some tutorials.
There are some really great users out there i’ll, probably try to link a few up right here that can help you out a lot with if you message them or just watch their videos. So this has been mkbhd with quick episode episode, two of getting your youtube videos together more professionally, and this has been on graphics, stay tuned for episode, three, which should be coming up i’ll, probably be making these videos once every week or so maybe a week, and A half or two weeks, they’re kind of difficult to make you’d, be surprised either way, see you next time, mkbhd signing out peace. .
