Intro, Or Not Intro

[Marbro_za]

I know theres a thread on here somewhere.. .But cant be arsed to find it


So whats the opinion, Do we intro? Dont do it?

 

[lupin]

Do

But whyyyyyy
Youre not a tv show

I am going to do one eventually but seeing as youtube won't let me approve my channel, since my # has been used more than 2 times (yet none of those channels exist anymore) I'm not doing anything flashy like that till then that and I'm still learning editing and mic spots and filters for wind. But a small intro can make the channel more memorable. Even if its just your logo spinning as an intro with some music or spin noise. Just my thoughts.

So when people click they can realise that it's not the video the meant to click on with the boobies and free shit.

I have seen a lot of successful motovloggers use a intro as much as not use an intro. So its more about personal flavor. However I think more important than an intro per say is creating a quick 10-20 sec hook to get people to keep watching your video. Some consider that an intro as well.

I don't mind short intros, but I've never managed to like my own intros. I always go back to the cold start and logo layover. Much simpler IMO

 

[Marbro_za]

Thats where I am, Even adrjiannickilodiumnsian's intro is getting too long.

That's why it's only a few seconds long.

Adrijan's is just stupid now. I can't be bothered with his stuff any more.

 

[F4celess]

I pop in some logo action on top of the video. That's about it.

As mentioned before, I think an intro that's 3 seconds or less, to me, is just nice, it's short enough for people to not need to skip over it, and yet still long enough to flash your tits, err I mean logo or what-not.

 

[thunderous71]

Do and Don't. I have a short one and I lob it in my videos any place I dam well like! It may be at the start, it may be at the end, it may be in the middle or it may not even be there!

 

[lupin]

I'm actually doing the after intro of late. 5-10 seconds of video 2 second intro then on with it.

 

[Deanos]

Depends... Some dudes intros are just too damn long and you have to skip through it.

A title while chatting, that's what I do.
I wouldn't mind some or other flashy title though, but max 5 seconds. My 2c worth...
Any graphics dudes out there wanna help me out?

 

[Marbro_za]

Speak to @Maverickjedi1 he likes doing the computer art stuffs.

 

[SwissMotard]

Do an intro but keep it 3-5 seconds.

 

[Deanos]

Thanks Marbroza.
Will chat on Saturday....

 

[Sailormoto]

I use an intro but its mostly just for me and its only like 5 seconds long. I don't like peoples intros when they are basically 30 second long trailers though.

 

[Captain C]

Yeah agree with most of this. Only can tolerate small intros and mines 4 seconds... I hope most people will tolerate that. Just starting out in all this.

 

[superbiggy]

yeah, a short intro does the trick.
