Preparing for Patreon

**Previewing Videos: A Content Creator's Tip**

As a content creator, there is no excuse for not previewing your videos before making them live. It's an easy mistake to avoid, and it can make all the difference in producing high-quality content. Previewing allows you to catch any errors, fix any mistakes, or simply ensure that everything looks and sounds as intended. In this author's experience, previewing has been a game-changer, and it's become an essential part of their content creation process.

The Importance of Previewing

Previewing is not just about catching technical issues; it's also about reviewing your content to ensure that it meets your standards. This includes checking for grammar, spelling errors, and consistency in formatting. By taking the time to preview your videos, you can catch these mistakes before they're released to the public, which can save you from embarrassment and maintain your professional reputation.

The Benefits of Previewing

Previewing has numerous benefits for content creators. Not only does it help prevent mistakes, but it also allows you to refine your content and make adjustments as needed. This can result in higher quality videos that engage and retain your audience better. Additionally, previewing can save you time and effort in the long run by catching issues before they become major problems.

The Author's Experience

As a content creator, I've learned the importance of previewing through personal experience. In my previous videos, I made mistakes, such as editing errors or incorrect information, which could have been avoided with proper previewing. Since starting to use this technique, I've noticed a significant improvement in the quality and consistency of my content.

**Lunch Break**

As the author wraps up their work for the day, they take a break to grab some lunch. They share a funny anecdote about trying a new food, the dollar lunch, which is surprisingly delicious despite its unhealthy reputation.

The Author's Lunch

I'm having one of these dollar lunches and I have to say, it's really good! The flavor is amazing, and it's filling, which is exactly what I need after a long morning of work. The apple taste isn't the best, but that's not even a major issue – it's just not my favorite thing in the world. What really impressed me was how well the noodles were cooked; they're homestyle Japanese-style, and you can tell.

**Upcoming Content**

The author is excited to share some upcoming content with their audience. They'll be in Atlantic City for the weekend and will be recording a vlog from there. The video will feature David Banther, who will join them for an interesting conversation.

Atlantic City Weekend Vlog

I'm getting ready for an exciting weekend trip to Atlantic City! I'll be sharing my adventures with you all next Tuesday, but don't get too excited – it won't be the usual weekend vlog. Instead, I'll have a special guest joining me, David Banther, who's mildly famous in certain circles.

**The Virtual Boy**

As the author reminisces about their childhood, they mention an old console that holds a special place in their heart: the Virtual Boy. This 32-bit handheld console was developed by Nintendo and released in the early 1990s. Although it never gained much popularity, the Virtual Boy has a unique charm to it.

The Virtual Boy: A Nostalgic Gem

I still remember playing the Virtual Boy at Circuit City years ago. It's one of those consoles that I wouldn't mind owning today, just for nostalgia's sake. The Virtual Boy had a 3D stereoscopic display consisting of arrays of red lines – yes, you read that right! It was an innovative but ultimately underappreciated console.

**Gaming Room Goals**

The author has always dreamed of creating the ultimate gaming room, filled with all their favorite consoles and games. This would be a paradise for any gamer, with multiple TVs and shelves dedicated to game collections and figurines.

My Gaming Room Goals

One of my goals in life is to create the ultimate gaming room – a space that's dedicated entirely to playing video games. I envision it being packed with all sorts of consoles, from my NES days to the latest gen models like the Xbox One and PS4. And, of course, there would be multiple TVs, posters, and game collections on shelves everywhere.

**Wrapping Up the Vlog**

The author concludes their vlog by mentioning that they're wrapping up for the day, after a productive morning of work. They'll be taking a break to grab some coffee and possibly play some games before winding down for the night.

That's it for today, folks! It was a quiet day at the office, but I'm glad to have had some time to work on new content. As always, I'll be back with more updates next Monday, so stay tuned!

**Equipment Updates**

The author is considering upgrading their equipment for better vlogging quality. They're eyeing the Canon Vixia well camera and a Patreon campaign to help fund it.

Equipment Update

I'm thinking of upgrading my camera gear to improve the quality of my vlogs. I've been eyeing the Canon Vixia well camera, which promises excellent video capabilities. In addition to this new equipment, I'll be running a Patreon campaign to help cover the costs and make high-quality content possible.

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, previewing videos is an essential part of any content creator's workflow. By taking the time to review your work before releasing it, you can catch mistakes, refine your content, and maintain a professional reputation. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, incorporating this technique into your workflow will help take your content to the next level.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enman is that one reflective computer or what look at it it's just so freaking shiny hey guys how are you david defranco here davidafranco.com with a bonus vloggity vlog today's thursday but it's friday for you or saturday sunday monday tuesday or wednesday depending on when you watch this i am about to get some work done as you can see i've been working on my patreon stuff bada bing bada boom and there's more stuff there hidden behind windows within folders all that stuff because a week from today next friday june 27th yep yes i still use dashboard religiously my skin's a little red my shower that's okay um next friday june 27th i will be launching my patreon campaign i originally planned on launching sometime in july but for some reason i like launching things on fridays so i was like okay maybe i'll do july 4th but then i was again david are you stupid you're going to see side heights for a week starting july 5th it would be a really stupid move to launch a major patreon campaign and then just disappear for a week at least in terms of my office because obviously i'll have my outfit and ipad on me so cutting to the chase next friday yes my patreon campaign is going live i just decided this maybe a few days ago because it's that time in my creative career to take the next step because as i'll explain in next friday's video advertising revenue is not nearly what it used to be i mean look at chris pirillo he is kicking ass on patreon and i'm sure he's doing better than he ever would have if you relied on google adsense or sponsorship opportunities so i honestly feel like this is the best route to take and look at that david defranco dot com slash patrons as well as david franklin.com patrons access will take you to a page with that so yes all patrons who donate at least five dollars will have access to this exclusive page available to patrons only it's going to be a lot of fun and of course i have a lot more rewards as you can see i've been quite busy here are all the pledges and rewards i have right there here is my campaign introduction right here and something under it if i can get it i hate when paper sticks together come on by the way i always hate it in school when your teachers lick their fingers and put on the paper driven nuts oh and here we go my campaign goals as if i could make a certain amount per month then i'll bring back like my 24 7 live stream i'll start doing daily vlogs yes daily vlogs finally people have been requesting that for quite a while now so this is kind of like a preface to my patreon campaign and i ask that you support my decision to do this i'm not asking you to donate that's not the point of this i'm just saying if you're okay with the idea of launching a patreon campaign then awesome thank you so much seriously thank you for supporting me and if you're not okay with my launching a patreon campaign that's also fine i just don't want people freaking out thinking my channel is changing the content's going away because now i can promise you right now my videos will always be 100 percent free i can promise you that all of these awesome comments look at that you guys are just amazing you really really are so as expected yesterday's video did receive quite a bit of hate but i gotta say that positivity easily outweighed the negativity maybe i didn't present myself the best way i could have because let me make this very clear i know you guys support me i know you do trust me i fully realize that every single day in my life that's proof the mac pro you watching my videos that's proof the playstation vita that's proof i mean okay first of all let me make something clear the playstation vita is awesome my mac pro is awesome my monitor is awesome my office blah blah all that stuff is awesome but at the end of the day they're just things they don't define me as a person what defines me as a person is me my personality how i choose to present myself on camera the person you see right now on camera i swear is the same exact person you see in real life if you ever get to meet me in seaside or whatever and i'm sure a few people can back me up the people have met me at apple store seaside heights where else wawa yeah actually i saw a viewer wawa not not too long ago which was awesome so i just want to make that clear guys i do know you support me the reason i made that video asking if you support me wasn't me it wasn't about me in general it was more about sponsoring videos and add revenue and stuff like that and i want people to know that doing what i do here requires a lot of time and ad revenue isn't exactly what it used to be which is why other content creators like myself are moving to platforms like patreon such as chris perlow dave cryer amongst many other youtubers it's kind of the thing to do and like anything in the world we're simply looking to adapt the changes and there's nothing wrong with that so that's all i was trying to say in my video because i do know you support me there's no question about that the fact that i get thousands of views every day that still blows my mind the fact that i can wake up every day my house and walk to work you know my office that still blows my mind the fact that people enjoy watching my christmas videos and seaside videos that's awesome and by the way speaking of which i want to make something very clear i would never ever quit youtube i was simply saying i could fall out the place at a place the only thing i was trying to say was i could fall off the face of youtube or the face of the planet just like that because i'm not exactly forced to do this i could be out there having a real job and making more money but i'd rather do what i love make less money with a few challenges in life here and there then go to a job that i hate or go to a boss and have to answer to his requests every single day that to me is not enjoying work and i realize not everyone is yeah you know as fortunate and lucky as i am so i do truly appreciate the position i'm in um i didn't want you guys to think i was taking advantage of you i will never ever do that my content will always be free everything that i introduce is secondary in terms of my mac pro campaign my patreon campaign advertising uh revenue my sponsorship videos all of that in my eyes is secondary primary is me being myself and sharing memories with you you know my family vlogs or even tech content here and there and stuff like that so i hope you guys understood what i was trying to say in my do you support me video unfortunately i had to block 20 or 30 people here and there and you know what that's fine that's kind of the other purpose of the video it gives me the chance to weed out the people who don't deserve to be part of our community and believe me i'm not saying that in an egotistical way it's just i'm all about positivity and optimism and i don't want people like that talking down to me or to you actually just yesterday i i uh blocked someone that dissed one of you guys in the comments but they weren't dissing me but when i see them dissing you nope banned for my channel i just i like a clean channel for the most part so okay i've talked enough hopefully you guys understand what i was trying to get at um i would say thanks for watching but the video is not done but i will say this vlog's not gonna be too long because this isn't my usual weekend vlog so i'm not going to try to make it like 30 minutes 40 minutes an hour long but we'll see what happens okay enjoy the rest of your day on to the next clip look at that timing we're going to space woot another video has gone up well it's not public yet but it will be soon i'm just previewing it and that is probably the best tip i can give you as a content creator at least in terms of videos always preview your videos before making them live there's no excuse for it it is the easiest mistake that you could avoid is putting out a bad edit putting something in your video that you didn't mean to do just previewing goes a very very long way i'm going back and forth here all right so i'm going to finally eat lunch i'm gonna have one of these have you guys tried this it's a dollar so i'm pretty sure it's horrible for you but they're actually really freaking good it's an easy lunch it's filling flavor is awesome it kind of stays in your mouth throughout the whole day so the apple taste isn't the best but it's just really good homestyle japanese noodles and they have it i'm telling you it's really not bad at all and just like that monday's video is done i am killing it today and plus i'm kind of getting ready for next week because i will be in atlantic city between sunday and monday with the mildly famous david banther so the usual weekend vlog will not be up until tuesday but i promise you it will be worth the wait the virtual boy was one of the last products developed by goonpe koi and had a 3d stereoscopic display that was comprised of arrays of red lines you know i actually have a very vague memory of playing the virtual boy in circuit city years ago i can still kind of see it in my mind and it's one of those systems that i wouldn't mind owning one of these days actually let me check ebay virtual boy it's probably expensive okay there's one virtual boy system bundle with mario tennis and controller nice because you know you gotta throw that word in there 135 or best offer so i gotta say that's not too bad one of my goals in life is to have the ultimate gaming room seriously every single console i've ever owned as well as multiple tvs going from my nes all the way up to my current gen console such as the xbox one ps4 and wii u it would just be the ultimate room from like tvs from wall to wall to wall to wall and posters and my game collections on shelves and figurines but that's not gonna happen anytime soon that's that's gonna be really expensive getting all that together and there you go monday's video is officially exported i will upload that sometime tomorrow and of course schedule it and actually guys i think i am going to wrap up today's vlog this wasn't meant to be anything exciting i barely left the office both on video and in real life because i've been working on stuff all day but i will be winding down soon with a cup of coffee and possibly play some you know i might finally start hello spartan assault because i downloaded that free actually no hold on i mean yeah i got that for free that's not that's not what i'm saying but i might play max the cursive brotherhood i got both of those games free because xbox live finally has the games of the gold thing and it's actually worth using which is awesome so it's on the same line this place is playstation plus now and honestly i have not turned my xbox one on i mean i haven't played an xbox one game in a while and i finally installed the software update the other day and i noticed now when you say xbox on it makes a noise listen xbox on see before it was silent and i still love the fact that my receiver turns on and my tv turns on how convenient is that i freaking love it so it's really cool that microsoft introduced that little chime sound because i think it only made that sound if you pressed it yourself getting some weird wb changes here but i'm glad that it's now integrated into the whole turn on command using connect but okay guys that's it thank you so much for watching this probably boring vlog but you know what they all can't be exciting right dear lord do you see why i hate all the white balance this sucks come on there you go there's no excuse for that no excuse whatsoever in other words i don't i'm honestly looking into the canon vixia well one of the vixia cameras for my next vlogging camera but we'll see how the patreon campaign goes because the patreon campaign will definitely help me with the equipment and i'm excited to launch it on friday next friday so guys again thank you so much for watching thank you for your continued support there's me just playing in the background and i'm i guess i'll see you on monday so have an awesome weekend peaceman is that one reflective computer or what look at it it's just so freaking shiny hey guys how are you david defranco here davidafranco.com with a bonus vloggity vlog today's thursday but it's

i'm not exactly forced to do this i could be out there having a real job and making more money but i'd rather do what i love make less money with a few challenges in life here and there then go to a job that i hate or go to a boss and have to answer to his requests every single day that to me is not enjoying work and i realize not everyone is yeah you know as fortunate and lucky as i am so i do truly appreciate the position i'm in um i didn't want you guys to think i was taking advantage of you i will never ever do that my content will always be free everything that i introduce is secondary in terms of my mac pro campaign my patreon campaign advertising uh revenue my sponsorship videos all of that in my eyes is secondary primary is me being myself and sharing memories with you you know my family vlogs or even tech content here and there and stuff like that so i hope you guys understood what i was trying to say in my do you support me video unfortunately i had to block 20 or 30 people here and there and you know what that's fine that's kind of the other purpose of the video it gives me the chance to weed out the people who don't deserve to be part of our community and believe me i'm not saying that in an egotistical way it's just i'm all about positivity and optimism and i don't want people like that talking down to me or to you actually just yesterday i i uh blocked someone that dissed one of you guys in the comments but they weren't dissing me but when i see them dissing you nope banned for my channel i just i like a clean channel for the most part so okay i've talked enough hopefully you guys understand what i was trying to get at um i would say thanks for watching but the video is not done but i will say this vlog's not gonna be too long because this isn't my usual weekend vlog so i'm not going to try to make it like 30 minutes 40 minutes an hour long but we'll see what happens okay enjoy the rest of your day on to the next clip look at that timing we're going to space woot another video has gone up well it's not public yet but it will be soon i'm just previewing it and that is probably the best tip i can give you as a content creator at least in terms of videos always preview your videos before making them live there's no excuse for it it is the easiest mistake that you could avoid is putting out a bad edit putting something in your video that you didn't mean to do just previewing goes a very very long way i'm going back and forth here all right so i'm going to finally eat lunch i'm gonna have one of these have you guys tried this it's a dollar so i'm pretty sure it's horrible for you but they're actually really freaking good it's an easy lunch it's filling flavor is awesome it kind of stays in your mouth throughout the whole day so the apple taste isn't the best but it's just really good homestyle japanese noodles and they have it i'm telling you it's really not bad at all and just like that monday's video is done i am killing it today and plus i'm kind of getting ready for next week because i will be in atlantic city between sunday and monday with the mildly famous david banther so the usual weekend vlog will not be up until tuesday but i promise you it will be worth the wait the virtual boy was one of the last products developed by goonpe koi and had a 3d stereoscopic display that was comprised of arrays of red lines you know i actually have a very vague memory of playing the virtual boy in circuit city years ago i can still kind of see it in my mind and it's one of those systems that i wouldn't mind owning one of these days actually let me check ebay virtual boy it's probably expensive okay there's one virtual boy system bundle with mario tennis and controller nice because you know you gotta throw that word in there 135 or best offer so i gotta say that's not too bad one of my goals in life is to have the ultimate gaming room seriously every single console i've ever owned as well as multiple tvs going from my nes all the way up to my current gen console such as the xbox one ps4 and wii u it would just be the ultimate room from like tvs from wall to wall to wall to wall and posters and my game collections on shelves and figurines but that's not gonna happen anytime soon that's that's gonna be really expensive getting all that together and there you go monday's video is officially exported i will upload that sometime tomorrow and of course schedule it and actually guys i think i am going to wrap up today's vlog this wasn't meant to be anything exciting i barely left the office both on video and in real life because i've been working on stuff all day but i will be winding down soon with a cup of coffee and possibly play some you know i might finally start hello spartan assault because i downloaded that free actually no hold on i mean yeah i got that for free that's not that's not what i'm saying but i might play max the cursive brotherhood i got both of those games free because xbox live finally has the games of the gold thing and it's actually worth using which is awesome so it's on the same line this place is playstation plus now and honestly i have not turned my xbox one on i mean i haven't played an xbox one game in a while and i finally installed the software update the other day and i noticed now when you say xbox on it makes a noise listen xbox on see before it was silent and i still love the fact that my receiver turns on and my tv turns on how convenient is that i freaking love it so it's really cool that microsoft introduced that little chime sound because i think it only made that sound if you pressed it yourself getting some weird wb changes here but i'm glad that it's now integrated into the whole turn on command using connect but okay guys that's it thank you so much for watching this probably boring vlog but you know what they all can't be exciting right dear lord do you see why i hate all the white balance this sucks come on there you go there's no excuse for that no excuse whatsoever in other words i don't i'm honestly looking into the canon vixia well one of the vixia cameras for my next vlogging camera but we'll see how the patreon campaign goes because the patreon campaign will definitely help me with the equipment and i'm excited to launch it on friday next friday so guys again thank you so much for watching thank you for your continued support there's me just playing in the background and i'm i guess i'll see you on monday so have an awesome weekend peace\n"
