Everything⠀you⠀need⠀to⠀know⠀about⠀creating⠀your⠀first⠀YouTube⠀video
Have⠀you⠀found⠀yourself⠀watching⠀YouTube⠀videos⠀and⠀thinking,⠀"I⠀can⠀do⠀this⠀too?"⠀If⠀you're⠀confused⠀about⠀where⠀to⠀begin,⠀don't⠀worry—it's⠀easy⠀to⠀make⠀a⠀YouTube⠀video.⠀YouTube⠀videos⠀can⠀be⠀as⠀casual⠀or⠀as⠀high-quality⠀as⠀you⠀prefer.⠀If⠀you⠀don't⠀want⠀or⠀need⠀to⠀plan⠀out⠀your⠀video,⠀skip⠀to⠀the⠀end⠀of⠀this⠀guide⠀for⠀simple⠀instructions⠀on⠀uploading⠀your⠀video⠀to⠀YouTube.⠀This⠀wikiHow⠀article⠀will⠀teach⠀you⠀how⠀to⠀plan,⠀film,⠀and⠀publish⠀a⠀video⠀on⠀YouTube.
Things⠀You⠀Should⠀Know
If⠀you're⠀just⠀starting,⠀it's⠀best⠀to⠀use⠀a⠀webcam,⠀your⠀smartphone,⠀or⠀something⠀that's⠀relatively⠀cheap⠀and⠀not⠀as⠀complicated⠀as⠀a⠀DSLR⠀camera.
Record⠀the⠀video⠀on⠀your⠀device,⠀then⠀transfer⠀it⠀to⠀a⠀computer⠀if⠀necessary.
Go⠀to⠀youtube.com,⠀sign⠀in,⠀and⠀click⠀"Upload"⠀to⠀begin⠀uploading⠀your⠀video.
1:(Equipment⠀&⠀Setup)
Select⠀the⠀right⠀camera⠀for⠀your⠀needs.⠀If⠀you're⠀a⠀beginner,⠀you⠀may⠀already⠀have⠀all⠀you⠀need⠀to⠀record⠀a⠀video!⠀However,⠀there⠀are⠀a⠀few⠀things⠀to⠀take⠀into⠀consideration:
Use⠀a⠀webcam⠀for⠀convenience.⠀If⠀you⠀have⠀a⠀laptop⠀with⠀a⠀built-in⠀webcam,⠀you⠀can⠀use⠀it⠀to⠀make⠀a⠀YouTube⠀video.⠀Unlike⠀your⠀smartphone,⠀you⠀don't⠀have⠀to⠀hold⠀your⠀webcam⠀in⠀your⠀hand⠀while⠀recording⠀your⠀video,⠀which⠀is⠀handy⠀if⠀you're⠀making⠀a⠀vlog.⠀However,⠀built-in⠀webcams⠀tend⠀to⠀have⠀poorer⠀quality⠀than⠀many⠀smartphone⠀cameras.⠀Still,⠀a⠀webcam⠀will⠀work⠀if⠀you⠀don't⠀want⠀to⠀purchase⠀a⠀digital⠀camera.
Use⠀a⠀smartphone⠀for⠀mobility.⠀If⠀you⠀have⠀an⠀Android⠀or⠀iPhone,⠀you⠀can⠀use⠀its⠀built-in⠀camera⠀and⠀microphone⠀to⠀film⠀anywhere.⠀Premium⠀smartphone⠀models⠀have⠀amazing⠀built-in⠀cameras⠀and⠀can⠀produce⠀high-quality⠀video.⠀You⠀could⠀purchase⠀a⠀tripod⠀if⠀you⠀want⠀to⠀record⠀yourself⠀doing⠀something,⠀or⠀just⠀hold⠀the⠀phone⠀in⠀your⠀hand⠀while⠀you⠀talk.⠀You⠀can⠀then⠀upload⠀the⠀video⠀to⠀YouTube⠀straight⠀from⠀your⠀phone⠀or⠀transfer⠀the⠀video⠀to⠀your⠀computer⠀first.
Use⠀a⠀digital⠀video⠀camera⠀for⠀high-quality⠀filming.⠀Professional⠀YouTubers⠀use⠀high-quality⠀DSLR⠀cameras,⠀which⠀can⠀get⠀expensive.⠀Fortunately,⠀you⠀can⠀also⠀make⠀a⠀YouTube⠀video⠀with⠀a⠀less-expensive⠀digital⠀camera,⠀ranging⠀from⠀under⠀$50⠀up⠀to⠀$200.⠀Digital⠀video⠀cameras⠀generally⠀make⠀higher-quality⠀videos⠀than⠀webcams⠀and⠀smartphones,⠀and⠀you⠀can⠀typically⠀put⠀them⠀into⠀a⠀tripod⠀so⠀you⠀don't⠀have⠀to⠀hold⠀them⠀in⠀your⠀hand⠀the⠀whole⠀time.
Most⠀modern⠀digital⠀video⠀cameras⠀have⠀a⠀removable⠀SD⠀card⠀that⠀can⠀be⠀used⠀to⠀transfer⠀videos⠀to⠀your⠀computer.⠀Double-check⠀to⠀ensure⠀that⠀your⠀selected⠀camcorder⠀has⠀an⠀SD⠀card,⠀or⠀can⠀be⠀easily⠀connected⠀to⠀your⠀PC⠀or⠀Mac⠀before⠀purchasing.
2
Get⠀screen⠀recording⠀software⠀if⠀needed.⠀If⠀you⠀want⠀to⠀start⠀a⠀gaming⠀channel⠀on⠀YouTube,⠀make⠀computer⠀tutorials,⠀or⠀just⠀record⠀yourself⠀doing⠀something⠀on⠀your⠀computer,⠀you'll⠀want⠀to⠀use⠀software⠀that⠀records⠀your⠀screen.⠀Software⠀like⠀OBS⠀allows⠀you⠀to⠀record⠀your⠀screen,⠀your⠀webcam⠀or⠀camera,⠀and⠀your⠀voice⠀all⠀at⠀the⠀same⠀time.⠀You⠀can⠀even⠀use⠀it⠀to⠀stream⠀live⠀on⠀YouTube.
When⠀recording,⠀be⠀sure⠀that⠀both⠀the⠀audio⠀and⠀video⠀are⠀properly⠀being⠀recorded⠀by⠀first⠀making⠀a⠀test⠀clip⠀and⠀viewing⠀it.
3
Consider⠀a⠀dedicated⠀microphone.⠀Even⠀though⠀most⠀phones⠀and⠀cameras⠀have⠀built-in⠀microphones,⠀having⠀a⠀dedicated⠀microphone⠀will⠀improve⠀your⠀audio⠀quality,⠀which⠀can⠀make⠀your⠀YouTube⠀videos⠀sound⠀more⠀professional.⠀Good⠀sound⠀quality⠀can⠀make⠀or⠀break⠀a⠀video;⠀to⠀this⠀end,⠀relying⠀on⠀your⠀recording⠀item's⠀built-in⠀microphone⠀may⠀not⠀be⠀ideal.⠀Once⠀you⠀find⠀a⠀reasonably⠀priced⠀microphone,⠀it's⠀connect⠀it⠀to⠀your⠀computer.

1
Check⠀current⠀trends.⠀Before⠀you⠀create⠀a⠀video⠀on⠀YouTube,⠀you'll⠀want⠀to⠀have⠀an⠀idea⠀of⠀the⠀kind⠀of⠀content⠀that⠀people⠀like⠀to⠀watch.⠀Open⠀up⠀YouTube⠀to⠀see⠀the⠀most⠀watched⠀and⠀trending⠀videos⠀on⠀the⠀left⠀side⠀of⠀the⠀page⠀under⠀Explore.
2
Choose⠀the⠀type⠀of⠀video⠀you⠀want⠀to⠀create.⠀YouTube⠀hosts⠀videos⠀from⠀millions⠀of⠀users⠀from⠀all⠀around⠀the⠀world,⠀but⠀some⠀types⠀of⠀videos⠀are⠀more⠀popular⠀than⠀others.⠀Before⠀you⠀set⠀up⠀your⠀camera,⠀you⠀should⠀have⠀an⠀idea⠀of⠀the⠀genre⠀or⠀type⠀of⠀video⠀you⠀want⠀to⠀make.⠀Some⠀of⠀the⠀most⠀popular⠀YouTube⠀genres⠀are:
Video⠀blogs,⠀or⠀vlogs⠀are⠀regularly-updated⠀series⠀featuring⠀a⠀creator⠀talking⠀about⠀whatever⠀is⠀on⠀their⠀mind,⠀usually⠀for⠀10⠀minutes⠀or⠀less.
Gaming⠀videos⠀attract⠀a⠀lot⠀of⠀viewers,⠀especially⠀if⠀you⠀cover⠀recent⠀game⠀releases.
Tutorials⠀and⠀how-to⠀videos⠀can⠀encompass⠀literally⠀any⠀topic⠀in⠀which⠀you⠀are⠀skilled.
Montages⠀are⠀videos⠀filled⠀with⠀images⠀or⠀video⠀clips,⠀set⠀to⠀music.
Pet⠀videos⠀are⠀always⠀popular.⠀These⠀are⠀typically⠀recorded⠀with⠀a⠀hand-held⠀item,⠀such⠀as⠀a⠀smartphone⠀or⠀camcorder.⠀They⠀often⠀feature⠀the⠀creator's⠀pet⠀doing⠀something⠀funny⠀or⠀endearing.
Reviews⠀are⠀video⠀blogs⠀that⠀review⠀a⠀product⠀or⠀service.⠀Being⠀sardonic⠀and⠀funny⠀when⠀reviewing⠀something⠀will⠀get⠀more⠀people⠀to⠀watch.
Comedy⠀videos⠀encompass⠀a⠀wide⠀range⠀of⠀styles⠀and⠀approaches.⠀They're⠀best⠀done⠀with⠀friends,⠀and⠀can⠀feature⠀anything⠀from⠀practical⠀jokes,⠀to⠀silly⠀dancing,⠀to⠀scripted⠀sketches⠀and⠀beyond.
If⠀you're⠀stumped,⠀check⠀out⠀our⠀guide⠀on⠀YouTube⠀video⠀ideas.
3
Watch⠀videos⠀that⠀are⠀similar⠀to⠀the⠀type⠀you'd⠀like⠀to⠀make.⠀While⠀you⠀shouldn't⠀copy⠀another⠀YouTuber's⠀style⠀or⠀technique⠀completely,⠀watching⠀the⠀videos⠀of⠀a⠀YouTuber⠀you⠀admire⠀can⠀give⠀you⠀great⠀ideas⠀for⠀techniques⠀to⠀incorporate⠀into⠀your⠀own⠀video.
4
Plan⠀a⠀personal⠀video.⠀Some⠀people⠀might⠀not⠀care⠀about⠀gaining⠀a⠀following⠀and⠀just⠀want⠀to⠀upload⠀a⠀personal⠀video⠀to⠀YouTube⠀to⠀share⠀with⠀people⠀they⠀know.⠀This⠀can⠀be⠀great⠀if⠀you⠀want⠀to⠀share⠀an⠀experience⠀with⠀friends⠀or⠀relatives⠀who⠀can't⠀be⠀there⠀to⠀live⠀it⠀with⠀you.⠀In⠀this⠀case,⠀you'll⠀still⠀want⠀to⠀plan⠀your⠀video⠀ahead⠀to⠀ensure⠀that⠀you're⠀creating⠀a⠀great⠀YouTube⠀video.
Plan⠀ahead⠀of⠀time⠀to⠀film⠀events⠀like⠀family⠀picnics,⠀weddings,⠀and⠀birthdays⠀so⠀that⠀you'll⠀have⠀the⠀raw⠀video⠀to⠀edit⠀and⠀upload⠀to⠀YouTube⠀later.
You⠀can⠀choose⠀to⠀make⠀the⠀YouTube⠀video⠀private⠀so⠀that⠀only⠀people⠀with⠀the⠀specific⠀URL⠀(web⠀address)⠀of⠀the⠀video⠀can⠀view⠀it.⠀Still,⠀there's⠀no⠀guarantee⠀it⠀won't⠀eventually⠀be⠀seen⠀by⠀third⠀parties.⠀Keep⠀the⠀content⠀of⠀your⠀video⠀clean⠀and⠀in⠀accordance⠀with⠀YouTube's⠀guidelines.
5
Consider⠀making⠀a⠀video⠀from⠀other⠀videos.⠀This⠀practice⠀is⠀especially⠀popular⠀with⠀clips⠀that⠀don't⠀belong⠀to⠀any⠀specific⠀YouTube⠀user,⠀such⠀as⠀clips⠀of⠀old⠀cartoons⠀and⠀TV⠀shows.
If⠀you're⠀taking⠀this⠀route,⠀you⠀won't⠀need⠀video⠀recording⠀equipment,⠀but⠀you⠀will⠀need⠀source⠀files⠀in⠀the⠀form⠀of⠀downloadable⠀video⠀clips⠀(you⠀can⠀download⠀YouTube⠀videos⠀for⠀this⠀purpose⠀if⠀need⠀be).
These⠀"remix"⠀videos⠀often⠀exist⠀in⠀legal⠀limbo.⠀You're⠀unlikely⠀to⠀get⠀in⠀any⠀trouble⠀for⠀making⠀one,⠀but⠀if⠀one⠀of⠀the⠀copyright⠀holders⠀for⠀the⠀original⠀clips⠀in⠀your⠀video⠀requests⠀that⠀YouTube⠀remove⠀it⠀from⠀their⠀site,⠀they⠀will⠀do⠀so⠀immediately.
6
Write⠀a⠀script.⠀While⠀optional,⠀doing⠀this⠀before⠀settling⠀on⠀a⠀video⠀genre⠀will⠀help⠀determine⠀the⠀kind⠀of⠀video⠀you⠀wish⠀to⠀record.⠀Occasionally⠀glancing⠀at⠀a⠀script⠀can⠀help⠀you⠀keep⠀on⠀track,⠀give⠀your⠀video⠀more⠀structure⠀(and⠀therefore⠀more⠀professional),⠀and⠀will⠀mean⠀you⠀don't⠀forget⠀anything.
(3:Setup⠀&⠀Recording)
1
Make⠀sure⠀you⠀have⠀plenty⠀of⠀light.⠀If⠀possible,⠀film⠀your⠀YouTube⠀video⠀during⠀the⠀day,⠀using⠀natural⠀daylight.⠀If⠀you're⠀planning⠀to⠀do⠀a⠀nighttime⠀scene,⠀provide⠀a⠀little⠀bit⠀of⠀light⠀so⠀people⠀can⠀see⠀what⠀you're⠀doing.
If⠀you're⠀recording⠀yourself,⠀you⠀should⠀sit⠀facing⠀the⠀light,⠀with⠀the⠀camera⠀directly⠀in⠀front⠀of⠀you.⠀Having⠀your⠀lighting⠀source⠀behind⠀the⠀camera⠀illuminating⠀your⠀face⠀will⠀help⠀you⠀look⠀better⠀on⠀video.
2
Choose⠀your⠀clothing⠀appropriately.⠀If⠀you're⠀recording⠀yourself⠀and⠀have⠀a⠀specific-colored⠀background,⠀don't⠀wear⠀that⠀color.⠀For⠀example,⠀if⠀your⠀wall⠀is⠀black,⠀avoid⠀black⠀or⠀other⠀dark⠀clothing.⠀You'll⠀also⠀want⠀to⠀choose⠀clothing⠀colors⠀that⠀flatter⠀your⠀skin⠀tone.
3
Keep⠀your⠀background⠀clean.⠀People⠀will⠀think⠀you⠀are⠀unorganized⠀and⠀messy⠀if⠀your⠀background⠀isn't⠀clean⠀enough,⠀and⠀a⠀clean,⠀professional-looking⠀background⠀is⠀more⠀pleasant⠀to⠀look⠀at⠀than⠀is⠀an⠀untidy⠀one.
4
Begin⠀recording.⠀Once⠀you've⠀settled⠀on⠀an⠀idea⠀for⠀your⠀video,⠀perform⠀whatever⠀tasks⠀you⠀must⠀set⠀up⠀and⠀prepare,⠀then⠀record⠀the⠀video.
You⠀may⠀have⠀to⠀record⠀multiple⠀takes.⠀This⠀is⠀completely⠀normal,⠀especially⠀for⠀a⠀beginner.
Tip:⠀Record⠀more⠀than⠀you⠀plan⠀to⠀use.⠀You⠀can⠀edit⠀out⠀the⠀extra⠀bits⠀later⠀on;⠀there's⠀no⠀reason⠀to⠀worry⠀too⠀much⠀about⠀getting⠀the⠀timing⠀perfect⠀from⠀the⠀beginning.
5
Speak⠀loudly⠀and⠀clearly.⠀This⠀serves⠀the⠀dual⠀purpose⠀of⠀both⠀ensuring⠀that⠀you⠀make⠀the⠀most⠀of⠀your⠀audio⠀quality⠀and⠀capturing⠀your⠀audience's⠀attention.
If⠀you're⠀using⠀a⠀microphone,⠀speak⠀directly⠀into⠀it.⠀This⠀is⠀especially⠀important⠀when⠀you're⠀using⠀a⠀recording⠀item⠀with⠀a⠀built-in⠀mic.
6
Be⠀cautious⠀when⠀divulging⠀personal⠀information.⠀Because⠀YouTube⠀is⠀a⠀public⠀platform,⠀there's⠀no⠀way⠀of⠀knowing⠀who⠀might⠀find⠀your⠀video.⠀Never⠀provide⠀your⠀full⠀name,⠀phone⠀number,⠀or⠀any⠀information⠀that⠀can⠀help⠀people⠀figure⠀out⠀where⠀you⠀live.
(Part4⠀Uploading⠀on⠀a⠀Computer)
1:⠀Transfer⠀the⠀video⠀to⠀your⠀computer⠀if⠀necessary.⠀If⠀the⠀video⠀is⠀on an⠀SD⠀card⠀from⠀a⠀camera,⠀plug⠀the⠀SD⠀card⠀into⠀your⠀computer,⠀open⠀the⠀SD⠀card⠀if⠀it⠀doesn't⠀open⠀automatically,⠀and⠀move⠀your⠀video⠀from⠀the⠀"DCIM"⠀folder⠀onto⠀your⠀computer.
Your⠀computer⠀may⠀not⠀have⠀an⠀SD⠀card⠀slot.⠀If⠀so,⠀you'll⠀need⠀a⠀USB⠀card⠀reader.
There⠀are⠀many⠀ways⠀that⠀you⠀can⠀use⠀to⠀transfer⠀videos,⠀like⠀using⠀a⠀cloud⠀service.
2:Click⠀the⠀Create⠀icon⠀at⠀the⠀top-right⠀corner⠀of⠀YouTube⠀Android⠀7⠀Videocamera⠀icon.⠀It's⠀the⠀video⠀camera⠀with⠀a⠀plus⠀icon⠀inside.⠀You'll⠀find⠀it⠀at⠀the⠀top-right⠀corner⠀of⠀the⠀page⠀when⠀you're⠀signed⠀in.
