Content Creation
Creating content or revisiting assets
from past accounts.
As my boss is preparing to close the company, I'm actively
seeking alternative sources of income. To my astonishment,
there's been a significant surge in the demand for content
creation. Unfortunately, this influx has made it challenging
for me to break into the field. Nevertheless, as I'm growing
older, I've decided to document and share all the activities
I've engaged in previously, serving as a way to recollect
those memories that have faded over time.
Dream scene HD
In my old account, I discovered a treasure trove of high-definition
dreamscenes. I decided to reorganize them and attempt to
monetize, but I soon realized that the monetization rules
had changed since the old days. Unfortunately, my HD dreamscene
assets weren't garnering any new views, which made it difficult
to reach the requirement of 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch
hours for monetization.

Dream scene HD 4K
Observing the capabilities of my smartphone, I realized
it could capture stunning 4K videos, perfect for dreamscapes.
Excited, I filmed numerous locations, but soon noticed that
many videos were shaky. Initially, I discovered the 123app
to convert and stabilize the videos. However, the website
began restricting uploads to 500MB, which wasn't suitable
for my long 4K videos. My only choice was to bring a tripod
and film with confidence. Yet, as I was recording, a passing
cyclist briefly obstructed my camera. I had planned to record
from the 15th to the 30th minute, but ended up with only
14 minutes due to this interruption. Deciding that 14 or
15 minutes would suffice, I moved on to the next location.
Despite continuing to create content, my channel's viewership
remained low. Undeterred, I persisted, and as I delved deeper,
I stumbled upon a YouTube recommendation, signaling the
end of one-shot content forever. delved deep into various
guidance, meticulously crafting long descriptions, optimizing
hashtags, and carefully selecting tags, but it seemed to
yield little result. Undeterred, I continued filming. However,
the journey was not without its moments of frustration and
disappointment. During a free moment, feeling a bit down,
I decided to investigate videos ranging from 1 million to
400 million views. These videos spanned from 2 to 11 hours
in length. An idea struck me: why not combine four 15-minute
videos into one 1-hour video, specifically 50 minutes? To
my surprise, this strategy significantly boosted my view
count, marking a milestone from 15 to 100 views. Inspired,
I decided to create 1-hour long healing, calm, and relaxing
music videos. For the audio, I used freely available tracks
from YouTube, carefully selecting each one. However, I needed
a video encoding solution, and VirtualDub emerged as the
only viable option, as other alternatives required monthly
subscriptions. I was hesitant to invest upfront and chose
to reinvest my modest earnings to grow the channel's income
gradually. Everything seemed promising. Editing and encoding
a 50-minute video took a full day, and the uploading process
added an extra 2 hours. I did, however, realize that the
resulting file size was quite substantial. Encoding it to
a smaller size would require another full day's work. This
made me reconsider my posting schedule from daily to either
monthly or weekly. With a fresh perspective, I revisited
the tags and descriptions, adhering to the advice I'd come
across: fill up those 500 characters in the tags with relevant
hashtags and descriptions. As the days passed, I learned
that the description should accurately depict the video's
contents, and the tags must be directly related. Consequently,
I went back to edit many of my older videos to improve their
descriptions and tags.

Dream scene Handphone and shorts
It's been a months, and I haven't made much progress with
my videos. I'm eager to make them more discoverable, just
like the Windows DreamScene setup, which effortlessly accumulated
32k views on its own. Unfortunately, it seems that the algorithm
has changed, and when I asked ChatGPT about it, I learned
that YouTube is now using AI to recommend videos to viewers.
This presented a new challenge, and I realized I needed
to understand how to navigate AI, starting with tags and
descriptions. One day, it dawned on me that AI's training
relies on data, which brings us back to the importance of
tags and descriptions. I was disheartened to discover that
even with good tags and descriptions, my search terms were
only ranking at 1 or 2. Then, during my commute to work,
I had an epiphany. I noticed that everyone around me was
constantly looking at their phones. It struck me that YouTube
is predominantly accessed on smartphones, which typically
have a 4:3 aspect ratio, not the 4K video format. This sparked
an idea: I should create playlists specifically formatted
for smartphones. And thus, the concept of the Handphone
Playlist was born. Given the popularity of short video formats,
I decided to experiment with the remix button to create
shorter versions of my handphone videos. To my surprise,
these shorts featured a small play button that redirected
viewers back to the original handphone video. This sparked
another idea: I added a button in the handphone video that
linked to the 4K version, enhancing the viewer's experience.
VIDEO
Food shorts
While creating content for my daily and weekly uploads,
I realized the need for some basic but recurring themes.
I decided to focus on daily meals and drinks as a starting
point. For my first video, which was about coffee, I created
a separate section at B1 dedicated to coffee-related content.
Additionally, I experimented with using leftover cereal,
which I had previously used to make bitter coffee, and this
led to the creation of the "Cereal Kitchen" content, located
at B2. I created a series of videos showcasing my attempts
at cooking various meals. In these videos, I employed jump
cuts to highlight each ingredient and the oven, while providing
step-by-step instructions for preparing simple meals. I
focused on using easily accessible ingredients and baking
in the oven. For instance, I demonstrated how to prepare
hotdogs as meat chunks and poach eggs like a chef by gently
pouring them into hot boiling water and later draining them
for use. Finally, I experienced a significant increase in
views, reaching 2k, for the culinary videos featuring my
mom's recipes. This made me realize that if I didn't film
her preparing these delicious goodies, there might come
a time when she's too old to make them again.
VIDEO
Backstyle Journey
Regarding my website, I came to the realization that, at
40 years old, it was becoming increasingly challenging for
me to create videos from scratch, as my memory wasn't as
sharp as it used to be. To address this issue and ensure
I had a good record of my content, I diligently recorded
a multitude of videos for my website. These videos were
primarily focused on HTML animations using JavaScript and
CSS. This effort not only enriched my website but also contributed
to making monetization options available.
VIDEO
Tried and Record down
As I go about my daily life, I've engaged in various activities
and experiences, but I've often missed recording them. With
age catching up, I've come to realize the importance of
documenting these moments for easy reference. Even though
my latest videos primarily feature AI interactions and usage,
they haven't garnered many views. Nevertheless, I believe
it's crucial to maintain a record of these videos for future
reference.
VIDEO
Landmark
As I explored Singapore, I stumbled upon a significant sculpture
surrounded by numerous passersby. I thought to myself, why
not film it just for fun? To my surprise, the next day,
I noticed an additional 2,000 views on the video. It appeared
that the audience had a genuine interest in sculpture-based
content. However, since I don't travel around Singapore
extensively, I'm only aware of one or two places with notable
sculptures to film.

Soft toy
As I spotted some carebear around which appear after forgotten
for 20years i flim it and upload to the same view 2k again.
i spot another one in vending machine it generate near 2k
too. Then 1 shop appear i stop fliming worry i am the one
creating trend but i still bought one cheer up care bear
home.
Jokes for remix
While I was waiting for my last client, I noticed a large
fan that resembled my CPU fan. I decided to film it, and
once again, to my surprise, it garnered 1.6k views. This
got me thinking about creating more content, perhaps some
light-hearted jokes related to size. However, my attempts
at crafting jokes didn't yield much success, and after one
or two attempts, I ran out of fresh ideas.
VIDEO
Web self hosting
TThis playlist is primarily driven by my concern about age
catching up. I'm worried that as I grow older, I might forget
how I set up certain things, just like with other Raspberry
Pi software. To address this, I'm building a web server.
In case my Raspberry Pi suddenly fails or experiences issues,
I'll have a reference to help me rebuild it.

Windows 10 dreamscene setup guide
This playlist is dedicated to the Windows
DreamScene setup guide, which has accumulated 32k views.
Even though it's still searchable, AI search seems to have
declined. I'm now trying to revitalize it by adding more
tags and improving the description.
VIDEO
Tip from Chat gpt
As ideas kept running low, I turned to
ChatGPT for suggestions on what I'm capable of and what
I can create content about on YouTube. It provided me with
numerous topics to explore, so I decided to create content
on PC maintenance, PC virtualization, PC customization,
and Raspberry Pi

New thoughts
recently came to the realization that AI gathers information
from my videos, encompassing the description, title, tags,
and hashtags. However, there's one crucial aspect I'm unable
to directly influence: the metrics such as likes, shares,
viewer retention, and view count. These metrics all begin
at zero when a video becomes public, and AI plays a pivotal
role in determining how these videos are presented to the
audience. I've just come to the realization that all of
my video uploads have been a bit chaotic, with the category
mistakenly set to "HOW TO STYLE" instead of "music." This
has led me to believe that these settings are automatically
pulled from my default channel settings, causing this unintentional
switch to "HOW TO." As a result, it has become increasingly
important to establish consistent channel settings that
align with my intended content. This way, any video I upload
will adhere to the same settings by default, eliminating
the need to go back and make adjustments. This will help
prevent instances where the category shifts from "music"
to "HOW TO STYLE," which is my default channel setting.
It's no wonder that my videos haven't been receiving the
views they deserve, as they've been categorized under "HOW
TO STYLE," which may not be enticing for viewers to click
on.

New thoughts
Perhaps I can utilize an older smartphone to simultaneously
record audio from a distance and then merge it with video
during the editing process. Today, I came across many views,
prompting me to revisit some music playlists as I found
it challenging to fully enjoy them. I'm hoping this doesn't
negatively impact my search results. I believe it might
be due to a Google database error, and I'm optimistic that
it will be resolved soon. I've noticed this happening once
or twice a day, and it has me pondering whether I should
consider creating a music channel. However, all the videos
I create lack the convenience of a simple button press to
switch to a relaxing DreamScene, and it appears that there
are limited options for such content in my country. Perhaps
I should consider shifting my focus from entertainment to
music and reduce my postings on How-to content, which I've
now transitioned to a more laid-back style. Now i just monitor
Entertainment only have few view and currently there is
no longer any view left. The only option left is to create
new channel and shift out RelaxingDreamScene. But any way
i find that my country has limit place so i drop this channel
and only upload when i am free and moving around. The other
new ideal is music on all audio provided by youtube i just
make each a clip to represent the audio. after a few hours
i saw 0 new view again so i decided to shift all to music
and set only bitter coffee to music channel only others
to backstyle2k for how to channel
Podcast
I have basically given up on seeing my video 0 visit everyday
every since upload only 1 shot visitor recommend by youtube
and zero for weeks ? This grief made me click around then
youtube studio show right hand corner ideal for you. so
just blindly click it then it talk about podcast. Blindly
i create the podcast playlist , Firstly i put all those
music and then my dreamscene 4K. After rethink there didn't
say anything about redistributed music license free. I could
remember trying to dig on 4million visitor dreamscene video
say music is from podcast he just download and copy and
upload which is redistrubted and youtube music say is free
to use only in youtube not podcast. So worry too much i
delete those playlist then all my chinese playlist also
got deleted. Lousy podcast setting , I have to spent lots
of time to get some playlist back from liked video list.
Then i just put a podcast safe from license which is sea
beach sound and leave it there for good. 1 week went pass
to my suprise there is actually visitors not like dead 0.
Then i click on it and it say 10 s staying retention. Althought
not bad got visitor but still not something people wanted
or audience. So Podcast need to highlight youtube music
is allowed. if not i will just put sea sound.
VIDEO
Suddenly i got an ideal , why not video with AI voice teaching
mediation with sea sound.
VIDEO
External App or site
Today i found my howto channel has 3000 views as i open
analysis i saw something different the external source of
viewer is from whatsapp. Amazing whats app also can add
1 view if it share around and still will count it will be
great as most people use whatsapp rather than youtube app
and what video like twitter and so on. This bring me to
brainstorm whatsapp sharing video or how to gain view or
what kind of video people will whats app to others.
To my suprise i get 500 viewers daily for no reason, the
only answer i guess is that my bread,egg,cheese, saver meal
is recongize as korea miillion view bread making video shorts.
This make me wait if i get daily 500 view its better not
to upload new shorts until it stop. And according to analysis
the percentage is 50% meaning 7K audience was issue my video
3.5 k stay to view either for music or for bread . If my
theory is correct once the link is establish google AI will
next time issue my new short to same amount of audience
7 k again but depending on the video likes it will maybe
get 1k /7 k if video good it will be 7k /7k . Depending
on my video. But think about before my video get 1k audience
and 50 views 950 ignore my video . and next video still
get around 30 view /950 audience. IT will never grow . Then
i now realize why people copy each other for the same dance
music just to get AI to issue their video to grow audience.
Technique is really important to stay in youtube business
and AI must know how. short feed has continue its distribution
and reach 8.2K finding the right and make the right video
seems shot up the distribution. In just 3 days the video
reach this number of audience. More analysis data show impression
is just 44, click thru 0%, Short feed is 98% , youtube search
3.8% (many key words not related except bread) channel pages
is 0.2%, youtube featuring 0.1%, External 0.1%, Browser
feature 0% 45 countries distribution, its amazing for the
first time i got what i wanted youtube is supposed to distribute
to the world audience and this show its doing correct job.
As for date its sunday that pump up not saturday could be
golden date to remember. And as ususal mobile phone is 3K
view not pc anymore , computer 134 tv 113, table 109, Between
ios 638 and android 2694. There is 1 share , nice i got
46 returning view to view the video again. day 1 mom
memory , thursday post 75 audience 33 views friday another
20 audience push eveing time. saturday 1 return user
night time. youtube didn't feed at all. sunday morning
As i go back to see Sea Narrative podcast and using chat
gpt i ask is these narrative sea sound still in music ,
and it reply education, but when i select education it give
me alots of question, so i ask chat gpt each question to
fill in the blank. now it is to see if any view increase
at all monday morning, It seems theory wrong, it didn't
mass feed out on sunday night so back to video likes must
be more than 10 like than it distribute out. And audience
like butter, bread, egg, korean style. So my new video
all must have butter.
Content moderator
While brainstorming what if i made inappropriate content
the video might get deleted. Then i realize the next mechanism
is this content screener . Does the content screener look
at my video at start . does it screen and find it new and
distribute to the world ? How does it work ?.
PC maintenance
Suddenly i found my PC is under virus trojan, ideal stuck
why not record down all event how to tackle and add video
to my channel also . Thus i clipcham all setting i turn
off and on and way to deal with this virus.

Cereal kitchen
At the end the most constant is my cereal kitchen where i get 2 k view at least, and few new subscribers.
Then ideal stuck i heard from chatgpt before if you subscribe back to user they it will also recommend their friend to participate subscribing back.
Tuning up my subscribers immediately
Keyword hunch
NOwdays i trying out new keyword way, instead of blender, 3d builder,, I am trying out full sentence like , " how to import windows 3d builder to blender ".
TO my suprize i got 20 view and 1 new subscriber this make me think my theory is correct.
Youtube recoomendation
I made a windows 11 sandbox video and youtube think is great and start pushing out video for me i think it is not in youtube at all.
Then it suprise me no need likes to number up , no need alot of keywords i just put windows 11 sandbox as keyword. little short tiltlee no hash tag. No long description.
I did not even try sharing out this video. Lastly it is just less than 1 min video , i do not need make a long video . This outshine all data i know.
So how to get youtube to be intrested in your video is something like niche.
It seems not niche but curiosity people saw windows
11 sandbox and people got to click and see. this is not
niche but still could lead to alot of viewers who do not
have this install.
Youtube leads
I finally got a new video where anyone on the world will search for this, meta AI turn off, as 6 hours after Meta AI update the app, website pop up saying no way to turn it off.
So i went opposite and post a video how i try turn off meta AI, It is totally new and only i got the lead. after uploading and 1 day gain 100 view, and analysis show almost 50% more are from keyword how to turn off facebook meta AI,
I mean this is lead creating trends better than google trends follow what people search i went opposite and first and i am leading the trend. i wonder if i can came up with other leads and calculation 1 day 100, 365 equal 36 000 only i wont make it to 3 million only viral short can
