Starting to film my first YouTube video which is going to be a series of video's talking about Film (mainly starting off with talking about Genre's and Movements and then to follow on about "What is" script writing, directing, cinematography...ect.). I found it hard to think of a name for my channel, in the end i called it, "One Man Film Crew" or for short, "OMFC" since i do all the work myself. I guess i want to know, do you think that this is a good rememberable name to have? Do you think it could work out and get me somwhere?

What do you mean by "work out"? What do you mean by get you somewhere?

You have to ask yourself if your information and presentation is better than the hundreds of other people doing the same thing.

You might. But there are YouTubers who have done what you're doing, and have a decent following. Film Riot immediately comes to mind.

Instead of concentrating on the name, concentrate on the quality of what you're going to shoot. Make sure whatever you put up is high quality, which means MIC YOURSELF. Don't be like the other 90 percent of people on the net who set up a camcorder across the room and then use the onboard mic to capture what they're saying. If the work is compelling and interesting, people will find and follow you...the name won't matter.
Thanks, that has really helped me. Unfortunately Gary, i don't have a separate mic (being a poor uni student and all) however i tweak my audio within Premier Pro so it comes out clear instead of grainy. Randy - Yeah i am a constant follower of Film Riot however they did a mock about talking about the history of Film, and i only found a few videos that only talked about the characteristics of Film Noir for a minute. I would talk about the time period, and why the characters are like such. Thanks for the feedback everyone! :)

I'm still curious, Jake. I'd be very interested in hearing you answers.
