Episode notes
Experiment Reupload Sparked Rapid Monetization
- Alex repurposed successful videos from his first channel to a second faceless channel as an experiment.
- The fifth upload hit the algorithm and monetized the channel within about 90 days, causing backlog videos to gain views.
Faceless Equals Intentional Visual Storytelling
- A faceless channel means expressing ideas visually without relying on your face as the main element.
- That forces deliberate visual representation for each paragraph and rewards strong editing skills.
Learn Editing Or Start With Simpler Formats
- Hone editing skills to keep faceless videos engaging and consider simple formats first like voiceover over footage.
- If editing is a struggle, either learn camera skills or begin with simpler coverage (news, clips) to build reps.
