[the2guitarmen]

Heyy guys! if you dont like MINECRAFT than stop reading this! but if you do i highly suggest you go over to "minecraftcreater3" channel because he makes the most amazing creations in my opinion and he just made an enderman statue..also used these tips for my commentary!.. go check him out if you have any time!:)

[SAMCROxDSx]

These are some good tips man, I'll start taking them into consideration. thanks for the tips.

I have a few mw3 commentaries up and there alright in my opinion. But hopefully they'll improve with these tips and others.

[FatAndSassy1]

[monstertruck611]

[LIKEandFAVOURlTE]

Also something else to consider. Have fun! YouTube's not about working 25 hours a day to earn minimum wage! just act natural and have fun!

[UnFuZioNxHD]

My first commentary is on my channel it's the latest r it's in the video responses. Please give me feedback

[HaTRGaming]

[XxYeshiboyxX]

[ArchPowerable]

Thanks dude, it helped a lot. Hey guys look at my videos and tell me what you think. Im accepting all criticism

[BlackedVideo]

So tomorrow i gonna buy a good mic to start with commentating in minecraft but what is the best one under 100€

[ElateNazty]

wat is the best capture card under 100 euro

[weirdgamer24]

i have a question what are you using to record your gameplay? not making fun or anything straight up asking what are you using?

[mw2reapz]

I Cant be a commentator.. YET cosue my brother is so often home and its just so akward to talk to the computer when ma brotha is in tha hoauuus :P

[TheFelepeno]

Thank you so much!, This helped a lot.

[theguy9872]

[valliant3456]

[Doubl3Th3Troubl3]

[Doubl3Th3Troubl3]

Awesome man

[BobjumpA]

i have a channel please check it out

[dailydoseofdogfood]

@BobjumpA dude, no...

[TheFelepeno]

@BobjumpA Thats one way your not gonna get shit.

[BobjumpA]

@TheFelepeno it's worked for me I already have 19 subs or something like that

[TheFelepeno]

@BobjumpA 19 SUBS! NO WAY!, THATS SO MUCH!

[BobjumpA]

@TheFelepeno its x17 billion the amount of subs you have and if you are starting out it's good

[TheFelepeno]

@BobjumpA This is a new account, What im trying to say is dont advertise on a video thats meant to say to do it a complete other way. Its annoying.

[AdamWade01]

Guys my dream is to get a wider audience on my videos , i hope someone might, just might give me a chance its all i love to do <3

[BluCalhoun]

The X1's mic is better than the X11s...

[mclmatty]

@BluCalhoun the x12's mic beats both of them :P also the x12's have a nice little bass boost if thats your thing.

[mekahforever]

I'm not a very good commentator, but when you do a live commentary it helps a lot because i have lots of thoughts while im playing and i can start to start a conversation about straight up gameplay

[eatifier]

Codgameplay, do you commentate while playing, or do you record your voice and add the gameplay to it?

[TheInfused0ne]

@eatifier well if u record it durring that makes it a live commentary instead of recording and adding voice

[eatifier]

@TheInfused0ne ooooooooh ok, gotcha

[TheWATWAT123]

3:26 THATS WAT SHE SAID



[yourmum827ps3]

[KuffNet]

Are you looking to be a game commentator? We (might) want you. We are looking for gamers with good personalities that can upload about 1 video a week. We currently have very little commentators, and need any. Please check us out, and PM for more info. :)

[R3daMystic]

Hmm. . . I'm only 13 and I'm not going to let any one make fun of my videos when I upload because I'm going be proud of my work! Thanks for the video! :D

[OlympicSalmon]

hey im going to be a commentator soon with my friend so check me out and thumbs up cause codgameplay is good.

[DallaGamer]

Great video it did help me alot and to be honest it didnt help me out all that much but i see where your going wwith everything your saying such as the monotone voice example. But see i think my current problem is the fact that i dont have enough self confidence to think im going to be able to even possiabley get over 100 views on one video in under a month or less so even a week. So could you tell me wat i could do to improve my views or is it a time thing? Answer Back please ^.^

[ItscalledHLG]

great video dude.

[TheNigerianScammer]

get a fucking life dick wad

[BluntsMinecraft]

@ArTiC2324 yeah... but how can I be sure you're not a PENIS HUNTER D: also, caps man. take 'em off

[BluntsMinecraft]

I'm 12 and just started commentating. My only problems are even when i talk loud, the game is a lot louder in the video (even when i turn down the game volume a lot), and I don't know how to raise it in fraps.My other is my videos aren't being watched as much as i hoped... can anyone help me out with these?

[MrMinecraftmatrix]

im 11 and im going to comentate

[zZuko29Xx]

[ichamp15]

[VenomdragonZ]

[BettyWhiteChills]

[KiernHYDRAXIS]

[TheBeastDispenser]

penguinz0 is the exception of monotone commentaries

[xlWillyWonkalx]

[ThisFrickinSite]

I think i would go crazy talking to my self for 30 minutes alone in a room! Commentators are a mystery of nature.

[TheAlphaFaction]

I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE PUT ANNOTATIONS ACROSS THE WHOLE SCREEN.

[TheAndyShow2011]

[NoXyBreeZe]

if you liked the commentary, check mine out - and subscribe

[Gameboob]

penguinz0. best monotone commentator.

[FatTurtleGaming]

@Gameboob Hell Yeah

[PackMan342]

i started commentating about 2 months ago, i just need a little bit of support to keep my videos going. its been really tough picking up subscribers in just 2 months. come check out my channel if you would like. i would surely appreciate it and maybe you'll like my videos.

[jaffagaming]

holy shit hes good at this game

[TheHBCProduction]

I can deal listening to commentators with a list just not monotones

[pieguy38]

thanks for advice but i'm doing live commentary because i don't have the right equitment for anything else right now.

[ThatDutchIdiot]

The problem is, I'm trying to make a live commentary xD

Maybe I should consider making the first episode not a live commentary to get the 'feeling' and make the rest of the series live :)

Thanks for the tips!

[GEM4sta]

Ugh, my god. I can't find a commentator that is actually good at commentating to give me tips on commentating.

[LordHappyNerd]

It's good to see some MW2 gameplay again... and thanks for the tips.

[AllTimeX2006]

no offense u cant do commentary correctly to give tips

these tips help greatly for play-by-play commentary but not for entertaining commentary srry

[UltimateSuperion]

I try and say so yeaaaa instead of uhmm or like ahhhhhhhhhh

[VisceralInferno]

open very BIG...lolz jk man good vid

[LightAuraFox]

am ordering a hd pvr tomorrow if we could just talk i would like to be making videos with you and lots of people would agree that they would want to make vidz with you to but if you just want to talk about vidz message me i think i could help some the community

[TheToucanGuy]

Thanks man this video helped me out. The next commentary i do i will use these tips. I wish that more people would make videos to help out new commentaters.

[SweedleSayian]

Thank you so much, your tips will really help me when I make commentaries.

[CeleronCinematics]

opening my mouth really wide made me sound mentally retarded :/

[Darrellv2]

@CeleronCinematics lmfao



[DanielD01252]

I have a lisp as well as braces but around Xmas will hopefully be posting commentaries

Do you think people will watch my videos even If I have a lisp?

[mlbjsb]

@DanielD01252 I bet if you make a really solid first impression they'll stick with you. You'd actually be surprised how accepting people can be on YouTube, despite all the trolls. They know it's nothing you can help and most people won't judge. Good luck!

[RllyEZGamez]

@DanielD01252 hey man i also started doing commentarys around christmas! im new to it too :P

[Kobra1029]

@DanielD01252 Tobyturner....that is all

[LukeMcClarkzee27]

@DanielD01252 of course dude :)

[zZMiiDeVViiLZz]

@DanielD01252 O you mean your Tie Tounge ?

[sharkgorilla45]

@DanielD01252 you have to broadcast your videos everywhere you can i have a heavy northen acent so dont worry about it

[ShawdsProductions]

@DanielD01252 I certainly will.

[blade3337]

@DanielD01252 ofcourse. people love variety. if you have a lisp and your entertaining, you should be a good commentator.

[BPlusWEqualsZebra]

Thanks alot my commentary is really bad

[peppertrunte]

thanks a ton, i have been a commentator for some time, but didnt know what to talk about.

thanks =)
