Title: Youtube Channel
Post by: Sir Ulrich on 2015-07-26, 07:08:31
I was looking at many medieval youtube channels and not many of them cover armor as far as I've noticed. I was thinking of opening a channel covering armor and other medieval stuff with reviews similar to Skallagrim. He does a good channel but I notice he mostly covers weapons rather than armor. Me having more armor than I do weapons could probably do good job covering armor. Maybe even get associated with some youtubers with my videos. I might have to buy a high def webcam to attach to my laptop and clear some mirrors in my one room to have a proper backdrop or something. I was thinking of posting reviews on helmets, maille, coat of plates, plate armor, some albion swords, shields, gambesons, clothing ect. I just need to overcome my problem with being pressured when filmed. Any suggestions for this possible future youtube channel I was thinking of opening.

That sounds like it could be fun.

Just one thing I want to point out: Posting things publicly will always garner some unpleasant feedback from people out there. Just be ready to handle the unwelcome criticism. :)

Go for it, I've run a youtube channel for like 8 years now that morphed from guitar stuff to mostly historical stuff, and I'm constantly asked very good questions.  If you keep it professional you'll see that you get a lot of interested people.  I just remove and block the asshats who act like idiots.  If you stay on top of it it's not too big of an issue.

For a medieval channel I believe the correct term is asschaperons...
