This week I caught a great Interview with Scott Devine who runs a huge How to Play Bass - 7 figure Membership site that has grown to 30,000 paying Members.
The Big Video Takeaway I picked up (which totally aligns with my own experiments) ...
Informal Vlog style Videos mixed in with Tutorials and Education WORK!
Scott mentions how he used to shoot his Free Video tips & tutorials for YouTube in a glossy style, DSLR, multi-camera sometimes, well lit, formal.
But he noticed a lot of people doing the same thing and his channel growth had slowed too.
He then got inspired to go more casual, Vlog style, show some behind the scenes & glimpses of his family and mix it in with his Free Educational Videos (that drive masses of traffic to his Membership site)
Watch an example here.
He uses a Point and shoot camera (sometimes recording Audio separately) - but your iPhone would do exactly the same job :)
After he made the style change .. his stats shot through the roof!
