[00:02] I uploaded my first YouTube video on this channel on 26 January 2020.  Old audio recording in it, fan sound in the background and some basic editing.
[00:14] In the first month, only 398 views were received.   It did not go viral at all.  But that video is still there and today it has more than 1 lakh views.  So the job of the first video is not to go viral.  You just have to stand in the right place so that when the right time comes, people
[00:29] can find you, and by the way, YouTube was different back then.   There was less competition.  Put anything in, something or the other would work.  But now the game has changed.  And the biggest problem is that even today people are making their first video in the same way as it was made 5 to 10 years ago.
[00:42] Make an intro video.  Sit in front of the camera and say Hi Guys.  Welcome back to my channel. Do all this and make basic cuts and upload it. And then the views don't come.  Frustration occurs and channels get closed.  Not just one but multiple channels get shut down.  And this does
[00:54] not happen because you do not have talent.  This happens because you made your first video wrong.  So today I will tell you how to make the first video on YouTube in today's time. How to choose a topic.  How to plan your first video
[01:06] ?  How to shoot? Everything from scripting to editing and uploading.  So if you are thinking of making your first video then watch this video completely first.  Then make your video.  So first of all there is one small thing which let's clear up.  Don't make an intro video.
[01:20] Hi guys, I am Aks and this is my new channel.  I will tell you all this on this channel.  No one watches this video because there is no reason to watch this type of video.  There is no value in it for the viewer.  There is no answer to any question
[01:33] and no problem is being solved. And that's what your first video should be about. Giving the viewer a solid reason why they should watch this video and this channel. Whether your channel is in a search niche, a search-based niche where
[01:45] people find specific things by searching on YouTube, or a discovery-based niche. stop at interesting content while scrolling. But here one thing remains common in both.  The first video should be about one specific thing.  Don't go broad.   Do
[02:00] n't give personal introduction.  Create a focused video with a clear topic.   There should be a clear angle and a clear reason for the viewer to watch the entire video.  This was my first video. How much money did I earn from the Quora Partner Program
[02:13] ?  A specific question and a specific answer.  So the rule for the first video is simple.  One topic, one angle and one clear value for the viewer.  But this rule works only when one thing is already clear. Why do you want to start YouTube?
[02:27] Topic, structure, all these things come later. First the internal direction should be clear. And I recently got an interesting perspective on this thing.  When I was confused.  I used to think about the topic, watch videos, write notes.  But there was
[02:40] I watched a free lesson from this Advanced Law of Attraction course by Mithesh Khatri which basically works on manifestation and life clarity.  He has trained thousands of people and even trained Harmanpreet Kaur who is the
[02:53] captain of the Indian Women's Cricket Team. Here I understood that just thinking positive does not achieve anything.  Unless your action and your direction align. This is the real meaning of manifestation and the exact same thing
[03:05] applies to starting YouTube.  If you are not clear from within, then no matter how much advice you take from outside, nothing will go right.  The structure of this course is very practical.   It is not just theory.  Provides real systems that you can apply in daily life.
[03:17] And yes, the first lesson is absolutely free.   There are also some useful tools.  Afmation framework, audio ammation, vision boards.   There is no need to buy anything.  At least watch the free lesson once.  The link is in the description below.  Do try it.  Now let's come back to
[03:29] finding a topic is not difficult.  You just have to search in the right place and the right place depends is search based, meaning people search for specific things on YouTube by typing, like how-to videos or review videos, then do one simple thing.  Open the YouTube search bar and
[03:44] enter just one word related to your need and see what YouTube itself suggests to you.  All the suggestions that are coming are real searches.  Each suggestion is a powerful potential video topic.  But if your niche is a discovery based niche.
[03:58] Comedy, vlogs, lifestyle or anything else that people discover while surfing. So look at two or three popular creators in your niche. format is it?  What are the topics that are working for them again and again?
[04:12] Grab this pattern and make similar videos in your own style. So now I have found the topic. Now ask yourself two questions.  First question: Does this topic match the direction of my channel ?  If he doesn't, change the topic.  Second question: Can I speak confidently on this topic
[04:25] ?  If you can't speak then change the topic.  If the answer to both is yes then the topic is ready.  And yes, avoid one thing. Don't make the exact same video as any big YouTuber.  His audience has been loyal to him for years.
[04:38] Your copy will not attract them.  It may be the same topic but adopt an angle and keep the perspective specific, stay focused and do not deviate from the path.  And by the way, I will not let you go astray.  If you keep getting such helpful videos every week,
[04:50] you will never get lost. So subscribe to this channel now so that you can get such helpful videos related to YouTube every week.  Keep meeting. planning.  The first thing in planning and planning a video is to create an outline.   There
[05:04] create an outline.   There written in advance and you have to read it word by word while sitting in front of the camera.  It seems easy times our eyes do not match with the camera.
[05:18] due to which the real connection is not felt.  The outline there is completely different.   There is a page where the topic is written on top.  Three to just a small line written below each point saying what I have to say on this point and it
[05:32] is written so that you do not forget.  Now just look at the outline in front of the camera, see the points and speak your words clearly.  Different words will come out every time and that's what sounds natural. But while creating the outline, keep a simple structure in mind.  The video has three
[05:45] parts.  Hook, body and ending.   The hook is the first 30 seconds of the video.  The only thing to do here is to confirm to the viewer that he has come to the right place.  Whatever you promised in the title or thumbnail,
[06:01] body.  This section is the most complicated and people get most confused here. What should I say inside, how much should I say and how should I say it?  Keep it simple.  Put three to five points. After every other point, you can give your own example or
[06:14] What happens with this?  The viewer relates more.  And keep one thing in mind especially.  After finishing one point, do not jump straight to the next point. Add a connecting line in the middle that naturally connects the two.  We have to create a flow.  There is
[06:28] no need to give any lecture.  Wear should feel that my friend is explaining it to me. Then finally comes the ending of the video. Here finish your main point in one line and ask for just one thing in the ending.  Either ask for a subscribe, or
[06:40] ask for a like, or ask for a comment.  Do n't ask for all three together.  When you give three options to someone at once, and then does nothing.  And yes length of the first video is 5 to 10 minutes.   Do n't go beyond this because it is already difficult to do
[06:53] much research and deliver it in the first attempt.  If you are not used to it, then 5 to 10 minutes is enough.  Now our planning is done.  Now comes the turn of shooting.  And here comes a question which comes in the mind of almost every new creator
[07:06] that I do not have any proper camera.   There are no proper lights, no mic. So first I will arrange all this and then I will make the video.  But stopping with this thinking is the biggest mistake because YouTube channels are not made by setup.  Made from content.
[07:19] Many big creators started their channels using just their phones.  Basic setup, basic audio, simple background and today he is sitting on millions of subscribers. Why?  Because their content was strong, not their setup. So whatever you have right now,
[07:31] phone, laptop, anything, start with that. Everything gets improved later.  But do Everything gets improved later.  But do Read the outline, keep the outline in front of you and speak.  And yes, let me make this thing clear.   The
[07:45] awkward speaking, words will not come out and some things will also be left out. But this is absolutely normal.  Every YouTuber's first video is like this. If you go and watch the first videos of the big YouTubers of today, you will understand yourself.  The first video does
[08:00] n't have to be perfect.  Its job is just to complete and upload.  Rest of the improvements happen while making videos. And keep one thing in mind while shooting. And keep one thing in mind while shooting.
[08:12] good.  But whatever delivery you say will be real.  And on YouTube, real delivery works better than perfect delivery.  The viewer feels as if someone is you also feel even a little bit that this video is helpful for you, is
[08:25] With this you will keep getting such helpful videos every week and also press the bell notification so that you get the first update of the video. Now comes the turn of editing and here you don't have to spend hours.  For editing,
[08:40] If you want to edit on your phone, you can use KineMaster or VN app, it is free.  And if you want to do it on laptop or desktop then Filmora is a good option, beginner friendly.  But if you want it for free then TheWilv is absolutely free.  I will drop the links to all of them
[08:53] can go check out later.  Now in editing, first make basic cuts. Cut any mistakes or long pauses. We have to keep the pacing of the video fast.  If there is something extra in the intro then cut that also.  The viewer's impression is formed by the first 30 seconds.
[09:06] And yes, if the audio quality is poor or there is too much background noise in it, then you can use AOB pcast. It makes your audio better in one click.  He is important because the viewer can see bad video but cannot hear bad audio.
[09:21] So don't skip this step if the audio quality is poor.  Just add a little text again.  I have to use some stock footage.  If you want to add other background music, you can do so. You can get free of cost background music from YouTube audio library.  You
[09:34] just add an end screen in the last 20 seconds of the video. Because when you subscribe button or other elements on the end screen after that.  Now once all these things are done, export the video.  It is ready.  The sooner
[09:47] improvement we make does not come from editing.  It comes from consistency.  The second video will be better than the first one.  The third video will be better than the second.  From the third onwards, such a continuous cycle continues.  This is the game.
[09:59] Once the export is done.  Now only one thing is left.  That is the upload.  And there are four things to check before uploading.  This is a 5 minute job. But this decides whether So first of all you have to check the title of the video.  Write down the exact thing
[10:13] your video is covering.  Straightforward and clear.  For example, if the topic was included in the title.  Be it in Hindi, English or mixed.  You do n't need to get creative right now.  Do n't play smart right now.  Give clarity from the first video.
[10:26] She will work more.  The second thing is the thumbnail of the video.  Here also you do simple thumbnail is enough for the first video.  Have a clear face, some text, bold text, and a simple background.  If these three things are correct then the thumbnail will work.  No
[10:40] n't do complex things.  First get the basics right and then do the advanced work.  Next thing comes the Write your topic naturally in the first two lines.  Same words that you have written in the title because lines to understand the video. This helps him deliver the video to the right people.
[10:56] And the last thing is channel settings.  I have made a separate video for this. 15 such settings have been mentioned which must be set on the new channel.  That too before uploading the video.  If those settings are wrong then even after so much hard work the
[11:09] video will not reach the right people.   I have given the link of the video in the button above, you Once all these things are done, the video is ready.  And if you are also ready then comment below, ready.  Let's see how many people are ready to upload videos on YouTube.
[11:23] Ready to rock.  Comment, I am reading.  So remember the first line I said.  The first video does not go viral and honestly it should not. Going viral is not the goal.  Making the perfect video is the goal.  My first video wasn't perfect.  It's
[11:37] not today as well.  But 1 lakh people have seen it because it is not always necessary to be perfect.  Now you have everything. Planning, shooting, editing, uploading, everything is clear.  Only one thing is left.  Turn on the camera. But there's one more thing before turning on the camera.
[11:51] Channel Neesh.  Many YouTubers choose the right topic.  The structure is correct. Complete the hard work.  But even after a month the results do not come.  The channel does not grow.  And often the reason is that Niesh was wrong.  The direction itself was wrong.  And this becomes
[12:05] apparent only when a lot of time has passed. So I made this video on In this I told exactly how to find your right niche and such a niche which you enjoy and in which you can also grow. And of course, Law of Attraction Course by
[12:18] Mithesh Khatri.  If you want to try it, you will find it in the description below. in the description below. [music]
