Hello YouTube. It's Chase here
Today I wanted to do a video response to Jesse's newest video on PrankvsPrank.
Hi guys.
Sitting here in my car, in a parking lot over at Menchie's, the frozen yogurt chain, here in town.
Going there with some of my friends
They followed me here, but they're dropping someone off at their house who lives really close by.
So, they're going to be back here in a few minutes. But, I'm here just waiting for them. Chilling in my car.
I had planned to film parts of today's video at the college. I was going to have some people help me
But, I'm just going to be doing it on my own this weekend. I'll probably have to have some of them help me with future videos
But for this video, just gonna be a one man team again. So
Just waitin for my friends and then we'll get frozen yogurt.
Hello YouTube. It's Chase here. Today I wanted to do a video response to Jesse's newest video on PrankvsPrank.
I was one of the first people to watch his new video on YouTube as soon as it was uploaded.
I got the notification on my desktop and I immediately clicked on it.
And of course, he used a clickbait title called "Quitting YouTube."
Now, even before I clicked on the video, I knew that he probably wouldn't actually quit YouTube and there'd be some reason he uploaded this video.
So, I clicked on it. And, of course, after a few minutes of watching, he is pretty serious about wanting to quit YouTube
if his views on his channel don't improve.
So, I mean, you can go watch his video if you haven't watched it already.
But basically, he says that like the views on his channel are down, you know, and why spend so much time
making these great videos? He's such a talented creator. Why make these huge videos on YouTube when people who used to watch his videos aren't watching them?
because it's not being pushed out to people through YouTube.
That's what many large YouTubers have been saying lately. Is that, their videos are not getting viewed by their existing audience.
because of the changes in the YouTube algorithm.
I also feel like it's possible that these big YouTubers have lost touch with their fans. They've lost touch with how they actually became popular.
and, they need to, kind of, remember why they became famous on YouTube. Why people started watching them.
After two years of wanting to make videos on YouTube, I decided to invest in my passion for creating.
I've come to realize and understand that it doesn't matter how many people are watching my videos.
What matters is that I'm experiencing, I'm learning, and I'm always creating,
isn't that what YouTube's really about? Creating content that you're proud of in that very moment?
I've really come to love and appreciate Jesse's videos. I've been watching his channel for a long time.
I've been watching his channel longer than I've been watching any other channel on YouTube.
I wouldn't say that he inspired me through BFvsGF and PrankvsPrank, when those two channels were very popular.
I'm not saying that he inspired me to do YouTube, but he definitely gave me that final nudge
during the year that I started uploading videos
His editing style, his filmmaking style is so unique. It's so different. it's such a breath of fresh air.
If you watched like his Burning Man video, there's something so unique and so cool about them, especially now that he's kind of been losing
that Casey Neistat influence now that he stopped vlogging. He's been making these big production things in his goal to become a filmmaker.
And it's really great stuff. However, Jesse's complaining in his newest video about not getting very many views and potentially leaving YouTube shows that
he has forgotten the essence of what actually made YouTube great. It's about the product, not the views. There's so many videos that
we would call "trash content" get millions of views. And, I'm guilty of watching them. I love watching videos like that.
However, there's so many of them out there and quality videos are no longer being made. The essence of YouTube is making videos that you're proud of
Views shouldn't affect that. I'm not slamming Jesse. I still look up to him as a creator. I still think he's one of the greatest YouTubers.
I will follow him whether he stays on YouTube or not. I will always follow whatever he makes.
And I'm not saying that I have all of the answers. I'm not saying that I'm great at making YouTube videos. However, I'm driven to make better content.
Every time I make a video, I try to make it the best that I can in that particular moment.
Yeah, you'll hear me admit that it wasn't that good or I might've done this differently or that differently, but in the end
I made the best video that I could in that moment in time when I hit the upload button.
Trying to always make my best video yet is what keeps me going on YouTube. Not the views. Not the subscribers. And not the money.
I've spent more money on camera equipment for this channel than I'll ever get back from it.
And that's because I love what I do
I'm doing this because I want to be a good filmmaker. I want to make the best content that I can
So the number of views, the number of subscribers is great. I celebrate that when I reach these milestones.
it really makes my work feel recognized and appreciated and it does give me a boost to keep going
However, the main reason that I upload videos is to always make better content. I am continuously trying to improve the videos that I make
and I will not stop making videos until I am satisfied with where I'm at. I know where I want to be, but I don't know how to get there.
and the only way I can think of getting there is to continue making videos and continue practicing what I'm doing.
So, putting your YouTube career in the balance because you're not getting enough views and claiming that you want YouTube to be great again
it just doesn't add up. Views is not what made YouTube great.
It's the creators who put their soul into their work and don't expect anything in return.
Thanks for watching. I hope you all have a fantastic day or night, whenever you are watching this
As always, continue to follow your dreams and don't let anyone stop you
As always, I'm Chase Charaba and I'm exploring life through moving pictures.
