12:00[00:02] want to show your face, then watch this video until the end, because today I'll show you 15 cool formats for a faceless channel that you can choose for yourself. The first format that I'm sure many people think of
[00:16] is a gaming channel. And there is enough variety here . You can simply show the walkthrough of games with your comments, like Kuplenov [music] Frost or Alinarin do, just without showing your face. If you don't even want to show your voice,
[00:31] you can record the walkthrough without commentary. However, in this case, it will be more difficult to gain views, and you will need to choose the newest and most relevant games. Or you can take the same game format, but in a more complex format,
[00:46] which will include your voice and interesting editing. In this format, you can show game reviews, complete games to achieve maximum achievements, or create interesting challenges for yourself. It's like
[00:59] playing Far Cry 3 with one burner. You can even just play alone or with your friends and then show the most interesting moments in the montage, as the channel The Rudy Games does. Such unusual and unique videos are much more interesting to watch
[01:15] and have a higher chance of getting views. The next format is unpacking of goods. And although this trend appeared a long time ago, it has not gone away yet. Just videos that I received from AliExpress turned into
[01:31] videos of the top best products on OzOne, banned goods on Wildberries, I bought trash headphones on OzoOne, and so on and so forth. Essentially, these are the same unpackings, and here you don’t have to show your face . If you want, you
[01:46] don't even have to order products for yourself, but simply create reviews by commenting on product photos and, most interestingly, reviews of these products. For successful videos, it's best to use unusual or even questionable products that people
[02:01] may have never seen. For example, weight loss injections or inhalers for children, which are not actually inhalers, and very cheap products that often turn out to be counterfeit. The next format of the channel without a face is
[02:16] creating something with your own hands, or in other words, DIY, from the English "do it yourself." There are simply endless options here . You can solder boards on Arduino, design unusual things and then use them in everyday life or create
[02:31] electric machines or robots. Using the same Arduino, you can show the process of creating miniature rooms, also known as roomboxes and dioramas, or show the restoration of old things, knives, wrenches,
[02:46] axes, basically, anything, as the Slivki Show channel does. You can even show the process of repairing cars, motorcycles or ordinary household items. But this is no longer even DIY, but a separate format with repairs. And the next channel format is
[03:02] a bit like DIY, and it's handicrafts. If you know how to knit, crochet, glue mosaics, or something else, you can record the process of creating your works on video. You can tell interesting stories on top of the video
[03:19] storytelling, or teach others a secret. Also, to generate hype, you can involve some people or characters that are relevant and popular at the moment. For example, a few months ago you could have
[03:34] [clears throat] or Tuntun Sakhur, and even earlier, Labou were popular. The main thing is to keep an eye on what's currently hyped so you can jump on board. Moreover, this works not only in handicrafts, but in general
[03:49] in all areas of blogging, from gaming to news. By the way, even if you're planning to shoot videos without a face, you'll still need to edit them somewhere. And if you don't want to deal with complex
[04:01] tools, then a video editing app will definitely come in handy. For example, using the split tool, you can cut out seconds of silence or bad takes in just a few clicks. And with this tool, you can add
[04:16] different zooms in or out of the frame to make the video more dynamic. In addition to basic tools, you can generate voice using a neural network, work with text, and add various effects and transitions.
[04:32] There is also a built-in music library. no copyright. Just select the song you want and add it to your track. The full version of the program is purchased once without monthly subscriptions, and viewers of
[04:46] this channel receive a huge 60% discount. Follow the link in the description to check out this great offer. The next format also has many variations of execution, and these are film analyses. Firstly, you
[05:00] can create videos in which you explain the hidden meaning of films, like: "What was the cursed island about or what is hidden in the film Substance." Or you can make detailed reviews of films and highlight their good and bad
[05:16] sides, as BT the comedian does, for example. Or you could make simpler reviews, just comment on the film, discussing the characters' stupid actions and rewarding them for their positive actions. You can also tell the entire plot of the
[05:32] film in 10 minutes in your videos. And if you add a pinch of humor here, you will definitely find fans. For example, a friend of mine has no time to watch movies at all , but she has watched dozens of films with the help of these
[05:46] ten-minute videos. Another interesting idea is to take a horror movie and talk about how you would survive in a given situation if you were in the characters' shoes. For example, videos like "How to defeat traps in the movie Saw" or "How to
[06:01] escape from Freddy Krueger" are quite interesting and get a lot of views. You can create similar videos with both old movie characters and modern heroes, which will be even better. You can
[06:16] also use characters from cartoons or computer games, especially if they are currently popular. The main thing is not to include too long sections of films in the video, otherwise you could get a strike for copyright infringement
[06:29] . Another interesting format that I myself enjoy watching is computer assembly. In videos like these, it 's interesting to watch how the narrator sets a goal of building a computer for a certain price, say, 10,000
[06:43] rubles, and then monitors Ozone, Avita, and AliExpress to buy components at the lowest possible price. At the end, he always shows the final build and what games his PC can handle . Also, if you're knowledgeable about
[07:00] components but don't want to build computers, you can post tips and life hacks for using your computer or compare components for video cards, processors, motherboards, and so on. At the same time, you
[07:15] don’t necessarily need to buy all this hardware, especially at the initial stage. You'll already know the specifications , and you can use a video from a presentation of these very components or even show some
[07:30] gameplay, sometimes adding footage, and record your voice over it. This style can be seen very often on YouTube now. The next interesting format is training programs. If you are good at a program,
[07:43] such as Photoshop, After Effects, Blender, or similar, you can teach other people how to use it. True, this format is not suitable for everyone, because you need to be really knowledgeable about it. And it’s advisable to present this
[07:57] not simply as boring training videos, but to demonstrate the program’s capabilities using examples of your own work. You can record the entire process of creating a painting or video, and then, using editing and voiceover, create a
[08:13] 10-20 minute video in which you humorously explain , as an example, you can watch old videos on the HumС channel. The next format, which can also be introduced without a face, is a news channel. And the choice of
[08:28] topics here is also huge. This could be, for example, gaming news, in which you'll talk about games worth playing, new releases coming soon, and news from gaming companies. Or it could be a
[08:42] channel about neural networks, where you talk about how to use artificial intelligence and what's happening with AI in general now. Or it could be blogging news in which you feature popular characters and your
[08:56] opinion on a particular situation around them. And although such channels appear constantly, this niche is nevertheless inexhaustible, because people are ready to watch endlessly about the same characters. You can also make
[09:11] videos about history, talk about the development of Russia, the history of ancient Rome, or the history of the entire world. Moreover, you can film not only about events that actually happened, but also about those that could theoretically
[09:24] happen. For example, what if dinosaurs had not become extinct, or what if dinosaurs had not become extinct, or what if Nicholas II had survived? And videos like these will definitely be of interest to many. If you're skilled at creating animations or are learning how
[09:38] to do so, you can kill two birds with one stone: hone your skills by creating cartoons and simultaneously uploading them to YouTube. There are many ideas for such a blog. You can create cartoons about real people, placing them
[09:53] in different situations. or, for example, about how various hormones and human organs interact with each other, or show the same story, only more interestingly, using animation. Yes, you can even create
[10:07] your own characters and your own fictional universe, similar to how the SCP Chronicles channel does it, telling stories about various monsters and non-existent personalities. And if you don’t know how to draw, but still want to create
[10:22] cartoons, then ordinary plasticine will help you . You can sculpt characters from plasticine, create the same plasticine space around them, film them on your phone, and then make cartoons out of them and post them on
[10:37] YouTube. Besides this, you can also post the process of creating such a scene, because people are always interested in what happens behind the scenes. And if animation doesn't suit you at all, you can film your
[10:49] pets, just like the Cream of the Show does. He constantly gets himself new Show does. He constantly gets himself new animals: spiders, hamsters, cockroaches, ants, fish and many others. Always gives them names and films their lives on
[11:03] camera. You can also have animals and show how they live, develop and grow. Of course, it's better to record your voice over the video, or at least neuro-voiceover, to make it more interesting to watch. The next format will
[11:18] suit you if you know how to take photos. For example, there are videos in which a blogger invites people on the street to take photos of them and then shows the very high-quality photos he took. Another idea of this
[11:32] format is to draw a person while he is not looking, and then give him this drawing. In such videos, it is very important to capture the person's reaction, otherwise it will be uninteresting to watch. And, of course, if we talk about a
[11:47] faceless format, then cooking definitely comes to mind . So you too can adopt this format . To attract viewers, you need to somehow stand out from other bloggers who also film
[12:00] their cooking. Some people, for example, cook on the riverbank, some pretend to be preparing lunch for their son, and some simply use kilograms of oil and get crazy views thanks to this. Think about what you can do that
[12:15] others haven't done yet, and try to implement your new format. Friends, if you liked this video, please give it a like and subscribe to this channel so you don't miss my new videos. And by following the link in the description, you'll
[12:29] find a video editing program that you can purchase with a 60% discount. can purchase with a 60% discount. Bye bye.
