 YouTube NextUp is an intense one-week boot camp that helps you grow right at the YouTube spaces. Most of you probably have never heard of YouTube NextUp, but I recently learned, here is the website behind me, that many big YouTubers with 1 million plus subscribers got their start, got their focus and motivation at YouTube NextUp. Let's have a look. The link to this website is down there in the description below. And let's take a look at the eligibility requirements. In order to qualify for YouTube NextUp, you need to have a channel with 10 to 100,000 subscribers, so it is for medium-sized channels. And once you've achieved that level, along with a few other requirements, you can then apply for a contest where the winners will be taken to the week-long YouTube Creator Boot Camp. Did you know about this service that YouTube offers? Tell us in the comments below if you know anyone who's taken the YouTube NextUp program. I personally do not know anyone, so I'd love to know if you do. Now let's get on to spotlighting your channels and deserving comments. CareOne asked his question twice, which is, why should I make a trailer for my channel instead of just playing one of my videos? Isn't that like creating a fake video of just highlights? Well, I have a quick answer to that question, which is, do you ever judge a book by its cover? Yes, you do. Everybody does. Your channel trailer is the cover of your channel. It's your book cover. So if you don't have an attractive channel trailer, people aren't going to get a good first impression on your channel. It might be a fake video in the sense that you never make a video like your channel trailer except for the trailer. But what it does is it gives people the best moments of your channel to catch their interest so that they want to watch the rest of your videos. So yes, it's extremely important to have a great channel trailer, and if you don't have one, make one. How? Click that I up there. That tells you all about how to improve your channel trailer, all the things your channel trailer needs to have to catch your audience's interest. Hope this helps. IBYM Gaming actually replied to that comment without replying to it by saying channel trailers are like a cover of a book. And if it's not good, then people will judge that video for the whole of your channel. And he's talking about that game is awesome. What game is that? Click that I to find out it's the freedom game. It's a secret code that you can enter into the shiny freedom dashboard and play a game. The secret code is be free. Boxingnow made an insightful comment. He said, don't shoot your earnings in the freedom game because if you blow them up, they're gone forever and you won't get paid. Kidding. Of course you'll get paid. This is just a game. Boxingnow said, don't shoot your earnings in the freedom game because once you blow them up, they're gone forever and you won't get paid. That's a good point. If you do shoot your earnings, you may never get them. Kidding. Of course you can shoot your earnings. In fact, that's the point of the game is to blow up cool stuff. I challenged you to make videos of the freedom game and share your videos and illusions did just that. He said, watch me play the freedom game. All right, here is illusions playing the game. It's basically this little ship that lets you blow things up. All the text and images and earnings on your freedom dashboard. Dragon of Legends also made a video of him playing the freedom game. Let's have a look. Roll it. And he's playing TARDIS for Doctor Who. Well done playing the freedom game. And let's look at one more person who said, I am fourth. Yippee. And his version of the freedom game is Godzilla. So he plays the Godzilla monster and he's shooting up everything, everything in the dashboard using Godzilla. Next comment is by Hazami who said, Hey George, I remade my entire channel using your tips. And really, my channel looks much more professional now. Here is Hazami who's got a great power by freedom in his batter. So it's Brazilian. He's using the YouTube cards feature and he's got great playlists, gameplays, tutorials, Tree of Savior, which is a new MMO for those of you who don't know, free to play. It's the spiritual successor to Ragnarok online. News Do Canal. And let's have a look at your video thumbnails. Wow. Very impressive. You use the category of your video as a text on the left, gameplays. And you're using color coding like tutorials. I'm really impressed. The text is clear. The tab on the left is clear. Very well done. Click that eye, that eye up there to look at Hazami's channel. Just monotone wrote, Hey George, please respond to this or shout me out if you can. I try to use Outros in pretty much every video with the exception of my first few. Outros are so important because they give your audience something to watch after they finish watching your video. So instead of going to watch someone else's video, they can see another one of your videos. Click that eye up there to see all of your Outros, a video focused on Outros. And let's have a look at just monotone's outro so you can learn and improve your own outro from seeing these ideas. So here is his outro. He puts a link to his last video as well as the subscribe button. I must say the annotation is not properly aligned to the button so it looks broken. So I would encourage you to do a better job of positioning your annotations. I would like to end this video with a preview for the next video which is about VidCon. How many of you are going to VidCon? I will be there. I just booked my hotel and so I would love to meet any of you who would like to meet me in person. Tell me in the comments below and we'll talk all about VidCon on the next episode of The George Show. And who am I?
