I've been getting asked to start Youtube again. It's a bit tricky. I don't really want to be associated with my old videos because I'm a boy in 90% of them. But I completely understand (and happy) that you all love them and may want to be able to go back to them. Part of me wants to start a new channel, new me, new gender, new life, hard reboot, but it's been suggested I unlist every video and start fresh here instead with a soft reboot. I'm usually a do or die girl. But currently looking for feedback.
Would you move to the new channel?
When I return I will be doing a new version of Watch Me Draw videos that will have a new format style but will feature fan-art (of the subject or of me) as well as commentary tracks over catchy music. I can't do the old format due to Youtube's algorithm. But it'll be like a mini-podcast with each drawing with me talking about what I think of the show/game that I'm drawing in the video, art theory and why I drew things a certain way and talking about technique.
I may start an In-Between Podcast, which would be bi-weekly and be recording between recordings of the Pizza Party Podcast. And while I biting off of Pan's stick, I may make review/editorial thought pieces once a month similar to Pan's videos but without you know without the desperation tones.
Ultimately I do miss Youtube, I do miss you. Both choices come with its own challenges. In the meantime, I am very active on Twitter (@ArtistIzzy) and I am a regular cast member on RebelTaxi's Pizza Party Podcast. Can't wait to hear your thoughts about this!
