Is it profitable?
Hello, first sorry for my english, I will try to write everything understandably.
I'm starting a YouTube channel. I've already added 13 shorts, which have 43,206 views. Thanks to them, I've managed to amass 87 subscribers, which is an average of, say, 6 subscribers per short. So I think people are enjoying my channel quite a bit. If I hadn't taken a month-long break, I think I'd have 250/300 subscribers right now.
Of course, I'm only posting these shorts for now to gain subscribers, so that people who clicked subscribe/like will see my first long video on the homepage (will that be the case?). The main plan is to regularly publish long videos and then create several shorts with a direct link to the long, main video.
What kind of channel is this? I created a cartoon/3D/2D character that catches the eye. Then I created 52 different poses/expressions, etc., so I can easily juggle them while creating the video. More poses/expressions, etc. are in the works.
It will be a storytime channel. Growing up in the early 2000s, The worst school trip, The most awkward situations in life, My favorite cartoons, A typical family reunion, Holidays in the countryside, Hated cartoons like Lippy and Messi, A story about "business," and many more. This character will be the narrator. The entire setting is animated.
I'm incredibly good at editing these kinds of videos; I have that "something." I'm more optimistic than ever. Editing an 8-minute film probably won't take me too long. Most importantly, I'm excited about this kind of "work." My dream would be to quit my job, wake up at 8 a.m., make coffee, and sit down to work on a new video project.
What are the rates? Is there any chance of collaborating with companies on this channel? Mobile games? Anyone?
