Blog #56 Rebranding my YouTube Channel

 It is extremely important that I edit the current state of my YouTube channel, as that is where my final shortfilm will be published, and honestly it is extremely unprofessional. The audience I have built now expects a standard in quality from me, and a consistent branding.

Here is what my YouTube channel used to look like.

As you can see its all over the place, with a channel name far too long, and a profile picture and banner with nothing to do with my film. Another reason I have to change my channel is due to its name; when you are trying to find my channel with the title "Romen's Awesome Videos Tavern" you have to type in each word correctly or else the wrong video/ channel would be suggested. For example literally typing in only "romens awesome videos taver" would give you completely random videos.


Here is my rebranded channel. 

The look is much cleaner and more organized, with a banner extremely similar to my poster- further embracing the brand I have created with the gothic font and red and black color scheme. on top of this, it is much easier to find my channel now, as simply typing in "splitsp" will have my channel in the top results. Anyone going from my instagram to my Youtube will now understand how they are connected, opposed to being very confused by the dramatic shift of tone.

My new youtube description.

On top of just changing my name and picture, I put in SplitSpine's read up, the same as on my instagram, and put "FLAWLESS COMING SOON" at the very top, so that when viewing my channel that is one of the first things you see. I also linked SplitSpine's instagram account and the official playlist from instagram post ?

Blog Post #1 Initial Idea & Basic Thoughts

Image
  The Empty Man (2020) I want to make a horror short film that focuses on a single character who is alone in their house and is stalked and attacked by cult members. I plan to include a practical gore set piece in my short film, and I plan to base my short film off of themes of self love, identity, worthlessness and toxic relationships. Right now my ideas and plans are all over the place, and I will do research and brainstorming to lower down my thoughts and get a solid story with clear messaging. I also want to look back at my previous final project, which is also a horror film with a gore set piece, and piece out criticisms and improvements I can make this time around. As I am creating a short film focusing mainly on one character I will also look into short and effective forms of character development, so that my film can introduce it's character, play out its story and have clear messaging in a natural pace that keeps the audience entertained throughout.
