Technology has led to big changes in the way that people capture, keep, and share their memories. Gone are the days when photo albums were the only way to look back on special moments. Today, smartphones, cloud storage, and social media platforms allow people to take high-quality images and videos instantly, ensuring memories are stored safely and are accessible from anywhere in the world.
Videos have increased in popularity as they capture sound as well as an image and offer a greater overall perspective on a moment. It captures emotions, offering the chance to remember more clearly, which has led to a hobby taking off that can also create income if widely watched. While some may prefer private, intimate moments experimenting with a silent vibrator, others decide to create a YouTube channel so others can watch what they put together.
There are many advantages to YouTube and creating a channel. If a person lives apart from friends and family, it is not always easy to send things online because a video or a range of images is too large. Those who collate videos can have them watched privately, by a select audience, or even by anyone. They are there to watch at any time and save the hassle of sending multiple emails or posting online many times. Those who want to save the video for themselves can download a simple tool to do so. It saves money on subscription rates charged by storage providers and can be shown to friends who might not have seen the video. Plus, clickable links can be sent directly, so nobody misses out.
Moments can be captured dramatically, sometimes when they are least expected. With most people having smartphones with a good quality camera, it is easy to film something and then post it on YouTube. It might be a celebrity who unexpectedly appears, or something happening in a public place. If it is likely to interest anybody else, it’s worth filming and then storing on a YouTube channel. Personal thoughts and experiences can be shared with a global audience, sometimes making the channel’s creator famous in the process. Those who engage in unusual activities or are experts on anything soon collect a decent following that tunes in to watch and listen.
A community of followers can be quickly built who have similar interests and want to share their own thoughts, maybe by way of an interview with whoever’s channel it is. There is a wide range of options to get creative and be positive, sometimes leading to bigger things. New skills can be learned, especially by anyone with a passion and desire to improve in whatever they do. There are videos they can watch, providing tips on how to make better films and how to get the most out of a camera. New techniques and ideas can be shared, with ideas for films springing up all the time.
YouTubing is a fantastic way to build confidence through learning new skills and then receiving positive feedback. While not many people make a career out of television, YouTube helps enthusiastic amateurs to get immense fun out of their hobby, with some even making decent money out of it, as Google rewards them through the placement of their ads. Anyone who may have previously kept a diary has something much more interesting to look back at, as they see how they change while remembering the fun they have had, something that can be too easily forgotten.
YouTube channels are a great way to store videos and memories, learn new skills, and allow others to share the fun.
