StrongManMoongabi Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Overall good reaction video but these videos you should keep short around ~7 minutes, theres no reason to have a 14 minute video of a 2 minute trailer. Also you should watch the trailer live in the video and comment on certain parts if need be. But most certainly, please do better with the title screen: Is so hilariously bad, its like you're trolling us. Even your facial expression seems confused with whats going on with this title card. lmfao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13hr Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Honestly, live trailer reaction would be best. I ve seen some people do it and it really adds to the freshnes. There is a degree of companionship, shared experience, you feel like you are there watching it when the youtuber watches the trailer live. Makes you feel like you are not a passive viewer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true, if you type in Suicide Squad reaction videos most range from 3 - 7 minutes. Phils is the longest one out of all the videos that aren't podcast style or talking about other things. Also to emphasize how bad this title screen is, I replicated it using MSPaint and 2 mins of effort: If I can do it, your not trying hard enough lol.

Again I see nothing wrong with the length. And you're still missing my point. Should of split it into two and made them 7 - 8 mins long maximum. Personally I hate reaction videos cause its an obvious cash grab, but if you're going to do it. Do it right. Jinx, the biggest reaction video whore director has his videos tied to one topic per vid and all fall around a certain timelimit. DSP should mimic certain characteristics of what works and apply his own DSPisms to the video to make it a hit.

Vrifter Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) There's no hard rules around this sort of video. Some might prefer shorter, but others might like a longer vid. I do think a live reaction would be good...especially since Phil's calling it "Phil reacts". It's closer to a review in this format. It may be a cheap way to get views, but that's because live reaction vids can be fun. Edited January 21, 2016 by Vrifter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13hr Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 About the copyright strikes, I ve seen some youtubers just live streaming the audio while they are the only ones watching the video. It works just as well and I m pretty sure that's copyright problems free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vrifter Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 as 13hr said, he could actually watch the trailer or whatever it is without actually showing it if he's worried about a copyright problems. It's still pretty effective. Not as good of course, but could still be good for views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pochomex Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) Personally I really enjoyed the video and think it will be a very welcome addition to his content. However I agree that the presentation could be improved. My suggestion would be to turn the camera a bit towards one side so that half of the screen is Phil and the other half could be where he shows off pictures or logos. It's how most news reporters do things Also, I think "Phil Reacts" is a little too simple of a title so he might want to consider coming up with a new more interesting name for these videos. Something that could help distinguish it as its own unique series. If he wants to toy with the news theme he could make a little news parody logo and put it on the corner. Something like "PNN" (Phil News Network) or "MSNPC" (MainStream News Previews and Commentary). Or he could just rename the series "Today's Top Story" and put a logo in the corner that says "TTS" Edited January 21, 2016 by Pochomex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but, what on earth are you talking about? You think he's a detractor because he thinks Phil should put more effort into his titlecards? Then I guess I'm a detractor too because compared to the titlecards on KOGaming that one is incredibly lazy.

WowDude Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Maybe if more posts were about constructive criticism and less about "exposing" people Phil's content (and this community) would be a lot stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13hr Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Phil could go many ways with the trailer, watch and then comment, comment while watching, pause for a comment or watch it 2 tines, one to get a general idea and one to comment over it etc Whatever he chooses to do it will be his personal way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGiantCock Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 I actually thought it was very good for a first start. Phil will get the hang of it the more he does it but he's going in the right direction especially with the editing. Phil has such strong opinions that no doubt the series will grow aslong as he stays consistent in making sure he uploads these when everyone is talking about them(like no more than 24 hours after the trailer comes out) the earlier the better. I also think it would be a good idea to break down the trailer a little bit more and say what shots he liked or didn't like in particular, but I'm really enjoying where this series is going. There's gonna be a bunch of new blockbuster trailers coming out in the coming weeks/months leading up to the Summer and this is the time to take advantage because the community is getting bigger. I'll doing my part to "tweet" you when the trailers first come out. Keep grinding DSP, this is your year brother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
