Yeah, I think he is (although I can't find him stating his romantic orientation explicitly), but his channel seems to be just a 'general' YouTube channel. Mine's going to be focussed solely on gay/ace stuff, so I'm confident that it'll be different enough 😄 Thanks for letting me know though! 👍 No worries! Good luck with it all, let us know when it all gets set up! Link to post Share on other sites

Slice of Ace Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 Okay, now I'm kind of terrified 😨 My YouTube channel is up, with the first video. I hope it's not too bad 😂 I'm not very confident in front of my terrible-quality camera. Anyway, the link's in my signature, and I'll drop the first video here: Spoiler Link to post Share on other sites
Demi Dad Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 @Slice of Ace not bad at all i would definitely view more Link to post Share on other sites

To Each Their Own Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Hey there. Thanks for posting your link in your signature! It makes finding your channel much easier. I did watch both of your videos and thought they were good. Keep uploading and I’ll keep watching. Link to post Share on other sites
Tunhope Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I've just watched too. I love the speed of your delivery and also the clarity of your speech. An entire cake shop of goodies to you, I think. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jetsun Milarepa Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Yes! I've missed Pieces of Ace since the podcasts stopped and this is just the right thing to keep us in view. You're a very good presenter indeed! Keep it up! Link to post Share on other sites
Slice of Ace Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 Haha, thanks everyone! You're all too nice 😊 Does no one have any criticisms though? It would help me improve if I knew what you didn't like 😊 Link to post Share on other sites
Here&Queer Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Sorry I'm a bit late to this! I thought it was great! I'm so excited to see what you do with the channel. I guess if you want a critique, I would say to try to set up a nice background. Still, a lot of Youtubers don't develop a background until they've posted quite a few videos, so it's really not a huge deal. Otherwise, great video!!! Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, my sofa isn't the greatest backdrop, is it? 😂 I'm hopefully going to be moving soon, so I should be able to get a better set up and backdrop then 😊 Link to post Share on other sites
Ivy4 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I just watched your first video and it’s great! Good explanation of asexuality. My only suggestion is maybe change the music? Also introduce us to your cat Link to post Share on other sites

Gentle Giant Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 @Slice of Ace Your video is very good! I do have some suggestions. I am hearing impaired and it would help to not have background music playing when you are speaking, to make it easier to hear. Another thing that would help, could you put in subtitles?

Another thing that would help, could you put in subtitles? I'll definitely put in subtitles. I'll get on that today, thanks for reminding me 😊 Would it suffice to simply decrease the volume of the music? I'm used to having music in the background of everything, so it sounds really bare without. I'll remove it completely if it's too much of a problem though 😊 Link to post Share on other sites
Slice of Ace Posted October 9, 2018 Author Share Posted October 9, 2018 @Gentle Giant Subtitles are up! I'll remember to put them in the next video before uploading this weekend 😝 Link to post Share on other sites
Gentle Giant Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 The subtitles help so much! Thanks for doing that! It will help others with hearing problems too. As for the music, if it helps you to have it there, keep it. You can just lower the volume. It’s just a matter of making sure it isn’t overpowering what you are saying. Oh and something I forgot to mention is that your voice seems like it’s not quite in sync with your lips. Don’t know what causes that and what to do to correct it. Lip reading is another thing that helps me. Thanks again for the subtitles! I’m looking forward to meeting your cat too! Link to post Share on other sites

No problem 👍 I want to make my content accessible to as many people as possible, so suggestions like that are really helpful! About the lip sync, I think it's the camera. I just used my webcam for videos I've done so far, and it's not the best quality. The audio's being recorded with a decent microphone, so there's probably just some lag in the video that puts it off slightly. That's why the frame rate is awful as well 😝 I've found my camera though, so I'm looking to see if that's a better option. If not, I'm going to pick up a video camera especially for it 😊 Link to post Share on other sites
Hölle Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I said this on YouTube in the comments but if you want to do an episode on long term Ace relationships I've been with my boyfriend for 10 years and would be very happy to offer any insight you might like. Keep up the great work! As an aside, I really like the background music 😉 Link to post Share on other sites
Slice of Ace Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 I'm dropping the next video tomorrow morning. I've just got to put in the subtitles before it goes live 😊 It may seem like I've completed ignored your criticisms and suggestions, but that's just because I recorded the first three videos before releasing the first 😝 I've found a better place to film (for a background), and am going to be using my camera for future videos. These changes will go into effect next weekend, for one of the videos. I think I'll do a short bonus one for the start of Ace Awareness Week, so that'll be my test run for the camera and background Link to post Share on other sites
