Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

MODERATORS
Travel is a tough first subject to launch on. If you're serious about giving it a shot I highly suggest you start by treating your local area as your first subject. Treat yourself like a tourist in your area ans script it as though it is your first time visiting.
Work on your format, putting together shot lists, decide how much you want to scripts ahead vs retroactively, whats your target video length and how are you going to handle shorts.
Luckily there are a lot of solid how-to video courses in YouTube and elsewhere, so first part of the job will be self education and applying what you are learning directly to your desired subject matter.
Definitely do not spend your budget on the travel and then just wing it if you're serious about making a channel, give yourself the flexibility of being able to go and reshoot things locally while you learn the tools.
