¿Alguna vez te has preguntado cuánto trabajo hay realmente detrás de un vídeo de YouTube?Hoy te traigo el camino completo: desde el momento en que una idea aparece en mi mente hasta que el vídeo llega a tu pantalla.Lo interesante de este proceso es que ha ido evolucionando con el tiempo.Empezó siendo algo bastante amateur, pero se ha convertido en un sistema eficiente que me permite mantener la calidad sin volverme muy loco (o eso creo).No estoy solo en este viaje. Alejandro, mi editor, es una pieza fundamental del engranaje que hace que todo funcione. Vamos a ver cómo colaboramos para llevar las ideas en bruto hasta el vídeo final que veis en el canal.¿Estás suscrito?1. De la observación nace la creaciónTodo comienza con la captura de ideas. Para esto utilizo principalmente AudioPen, una herramienta que me permite grabar pequeños audios cuando me surge una idea."Las mejores ideas aparecen en los momentos menos esperados. Si no las capturas al vuelo, se desvanecen."La fuente principal de mis ideas es, sorpresa, el mismo YouTube.Es un proceso meta: YouTube genera vídeos de YouTube.Observo tendencias, necesidades no cubiertas y preguntas recurrentes en mi nicho.Además, suelo escuchar podcast o incluso vídeos de YouTube en segundo plano mientras saco al perro, y esto me genera nuevas ideas, incluso cuando no estoy buscando.Trabajo con un sistema de listas de reproducción que te conté hace un tiempo.2. Transformando ideas en valor únicoUna vez tengo la idea cruda, comienza el proceso de darle mi enfoque personal:* Extraigo la información esencial de la idea original* Fundamento los conceptos con datos e investigación* Añado contexto e información complementaria* Lo más importante: aporto mi visión y experiencia personalEste es un momento crítico donde la idea pasa de ser algo genérico a convertirse en contenido con mi marca.3. El gancho: titulares y miniaturasAunque en este punto no creo las miniaturas definitivas, sí pienso en potenciales titulares y conceptos visuales. El CTR es fundamental en YouTube, así que dedico tiempo a pensar en:* Qué palabras generarán más interés* Qué enfoque visual complementará mejor el mensaje* Qué promesa estoy haciendo al espectador4. El esqueleto: creación del scriptAhora toca darle estructura. Redacto un script detallado que después pasará por un refinamiento con IA (uso Claude para esto). Esta revisión me aporta:* Ideas de información adicional relevante* Sugerencias para planos e imágenes complementarias* Mejoras en la estructura narrativaUn buen script es la columna vertebral de un buen vídeo.5. De las palabras a la cámaraCon el script finalmente pulido, llega el momento de grabar. Utilizo un teleprompter para mantener la fluidez y asegurarme de no olvidar puntos importantes.Aunque pueda parecer artificial, la práctica hace que la lectura suene natural mientras mantengo la precisión de los conceptos que quiero transmitir.Con el tiempo he conseguido que la redacción de mis scripts sea muy similar a mi forma de hablar, por eso casi no se nota la diferencia de cuando leo a cuando improviso.6. La transferencia a manos expertasEn este punto, envío a Alejandro:* Los brutos de vídeo* Recursos gráficos específicos* Referencias visuales* Indicaciones sobre el tono y ritmo deseadosLa comunicación clara en esta fase es crucial para evitar malentendidos.7. El primer feedback antes de editarAlejandro visualiza el material y mantenemos una conversación por WhatsApp donde:* Le explico la visión general del vídeo* Resolvemos dudas sobre secciones específicas* Definimos el estilo y dinamismo que buscamosEste diálogo previo ahorra muchas correcciones posteriores.8. La primera versión y refinamientoEspero a que Alejandro me envíe la primera versión editada.Este es un momento muy guapo donde empiezo a ver cómo mi idea toma forma visual.Con esta versión hago anotaciones sobre:* Pequeños fallos de comprensión sobre la idea* Erratas en textos o gráficos* Mejoras en dinámicas o transiciones* Ajustes de ritmo y énfasisEstos comentarios vuelven a Alejandro para implementarlos.9. Puliendo hasta la excelenciaRecibo la versión pulida, lista para exportar en 4K. A veces hacemos varias iteraciones hasta alcanzar el resultado deseado.Cuando el vídeo está listo, Alejandro lo sube directamente a YouTube con la configuración básica.10. Miniatura definitivaUtilizando Canva, creo la miniatura final basándome en la idea inicial pero ajustándola según:* El contenido final del vídeo* El título definitivo* Lo que he visto que funciona mejor en miniaturas anterioresNo soy diseñador ni aspiro a serlo. Si el canal creciese mucho, este apartado lo terminaría delegando, pero creo que aún estoy en un punto en el que puedo diseñarlo yo mismo y hacer pequeñas mejoras en cada nueva miniatura que saco.11. El tostón final: la descripciónCreo una descripción detallada que:* Resume el contenido principal* Incluye timestamps de las secciones importantes* Añade recursos mencionados en el vídeo* Incorpora mis enlaces principales* Utiliza palabras clave relevantesEsta descripción la pego directamente en YouTube y la suelo fabricar mediante Claude y una plantilla y un prompt que tengo para ello.12. El momento estratégico: la programaciónTras analizar datos, he detectado que los mejores días para publicar son miércoles, jueves y viernes. En estos días obtengo una mejor progresión de reproducciones y engagement.Sin duda, los días que más reproducciones acumulo son los domingos, por eso me interesa que YouTube sea capaz de procesar y comprender el vídeo en los días previos.Parece un poco contraintuitivo, pero así funciona en mi caso.El tiempo total: paciencia y constanciaDesde la idea inicial hasta la publicación transcurren aproximadamente 10 días. Este tiempo me permite:* No sentir presión excesiva* Mantener la calidad* Tener varios vídeos en distintas fases del procesoCrea en YouTube es diferente a cualquier otro tipo de contenido que produzco.Tiene muchas más fases, diferentes procesos y requiere más esfuerzo del que prevés siempre.Contar con Alejandro ha sido la única vía para poder mantenerlo en marcha y desde aquí le agradezco su implicación y trabajo :)Te recomiendoVamos con 3 cositas para esta semana:* WeRateDogs: una cuenta de Instagram que comparten fotos de perros* Sprint Hacedor: estamos en plena campaña en Haciendo Cosas y el día 24 comienza el próximo sprint hacedor. Si no sabes lo que es, te dejo este link.* Perderse por algún camino de pueblo. Nada como echar a andar por las eras y pisar unos cuantos charcos.Qué estoy haciendoEsta semana he comenzado mi carrera como DJ.Es broma, el jueves tuve mi primera clase y puedo decir que está muy infravalorado el proceso de hacer una sesión y pinchar.Uf, cuantas cosas a tener en cuenta y cuánto tengo que aprender.Como si me sobraran las horas…Dicho esto, hacía tiempo que necesitaba una actividad fuera del ordenador y que me forzase a abstraerme por completo.Además, el tema de la música siempre ha sido un acompañante en mi vida, así que ahora tengo ambos componentes en mi rutina.Buscaros cosas que os hagan desconectar de verdad y os apasionen.PDEstoy completando el listado de Beta Testers que os comenté en la edición del domingo pasado.El hueco disponible para la versión de consultoría ya está lleno, pero todavía quedan 4 huecos para entrar en la capa de "Aprende a tu ritmo" Contéstame a este contenido y te apunto.Un abrazote!

We hope you're having a fantastic Thanksgiving! We are thankful for YOU, our listeners. Lots of great interviews to come, but for now, please enjoy this hilarious conversation with the genius creator of We Rate Dogs, from June 2020. -Original Show Notes- With more than 14 million followers across Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, WeRateDogs is on a mission that everyone on planet Earth can get behind: Rating cute doggos from the internet on a (dubious!) 10-point scale. This blend of adorable dog pics, comedic captions, and obsessive fan-submitted content has catapulted the novelty account (and its creator, Matt Nelson) into a massive online brand, which uses its influence to entertain millions, sell merch, and help dogs in need. Alli and Jen talk with Nelson about the inspiration for the account, how its explosive popularity changed his life, the serious inflation problem in the Dog Rating Economy, that time J.K. Rowling and Lin-Manuel Miranda followed him, why everything's political on Twitter, and his perfect response when Arnold Schwarzenegger asked him to rate his donkeys.

In episode #85 of The Party Gamecast featuring the Party Game Cast Bruce, Rocki, Marty, Mom (!), Bryan, and Mike find out what Floof and Boopability are all about when we review We Rate Dogs, a card game based on the famous Twitter account (@dog_rates).  We also ate some Japanese Kit Kats and identified cat noises.  Also, we finally got to your calls!  Please keep calling us at 30-PARTYGAME (and you can leave off the last 'E' for savings)!   WHAT THE FOOD   On What the Food, we ate three varieties of Japanese Kit Kats and a bonus "snack" that tasted like slightly sweetened play dough.   WE RATE DOGS   We review this cute and fluffy game about cute and fluffy dogs in what we hoped would be a cute and fluffy manner.  Unfortunately, it sounded like us.  I'd rate us 10/10, would boop on nose.   THE PARTY GAMECLASH!   We definitely Rocki'd the casbah as we played Earworm, a new Kickstarted game about identifying songs without using lyrics.  You should tune in right meow and listen.   Lastly I would be remiss if I didn't mention our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/Partygamecast .  You should definitely consider supporting us, especially if you've read this far.    

Matt Nelson (@dogfather) dropped out of college because he effectively monetized a twitter account where he numerically objectifies dogs. The popular account *We Rate Dogs* (@dog_rates) on Twitter is followed by over 8 million people, including JK Rowling and Cole Sprouse. Each tweet of him rating a dog out of ten, often exceeding the scale with a 12/10, generates multiple hundreds of thousands of likes and retweets. His Twitter account @dog_feelings, otherwise known as Thoughts of Dog, has 2.5 million followers because, as he says, he’s “good at writing like a dog and embodying that behavior.” Like We Rate Dogs, each tweet generates multiple hundreds of thousands of likes and retweets. He has similar accounts with millions of followers on Instagram as well. His work has been featured in scores of major media publications like CNBC, Money.com, Yahoo Finance, BBC, and Entrepreneur. He makes six figures rating dogs on social media. How? Find out in my conversation with the man Time.com called the “dog king of the internet,” 22-year-old Matt Nelson. Visit Matt at WeRateDogs.com.

“There is thought put into every word. Each word has intent. It is a challenge." Matt Nelson of We Rate Dogs and Thoughts of Dog dropped out of school to run a Twitter account. Well, maybe it is not that simple. It isn't and as you hear on this podcast, Matt is brilliant and created a must-follow account that he was able to monetize using something everyone loves-DOGS! With millions of followers, the pressure to be great can be immense, but he has studied his audience and has made the perfect formula that simply puts smiles on faces during a crazy time in this country.

This week The Digiteers ask a very important question: Is it (digi)metal? Digi Hosts: Garrett and Sporky Digi Notes We Rate Dogs Heavy Metal Kill -9

In 2015, WeRateDogs was born. If you would've told Matt Nelson then that he’d be entertaining 750,000 people in less than a year, he would've laughed in your face. For those of you who never knew something like WeRateDogs existed, it does. More than 3 million Twitter followers eagerly await the internet phenomenon of dog photo submissions being paired with witty captions — and the final products are brilliant. Not only is WeRateDogs used as a “joy outlet” for it’s followers, Matt has also ventured to use his online presence to converse and bring awareness to global conversations. In this episode, Branden chats with Matt on the creative craft of molding your words to convey your embarrassingly quirky thought or idea in 140 characters for your unpredictable audience.

In this episode we're chatting with Matt Nelson, the creator behind WeRateDogs—the twitter sensation @dog_rates, that has more than 2.5 million followers. The account shares images of cute dogs with a rating on a scale of 1-to-10… although just about every dog gets a rating above 10… because, well… Matt believes dogs are pretty great. At 20 years of age, he just finished his sophomore year of college and he's juggling this side project he started a year and half ago—with a full course load and internship. Despite all of his competing priorities, he's been able to amass an incredible social following including 173,000 followers on Instagram and 167,000 followers on Instagram. AND, he's monetizing his audience—over the past four months, he's generated $50,000 in revenue—largely from the sale of merchandise from his website, weratedogs.com.

In this episode, we're chatting with Debbie Millman—who's been named “one of the most influential designers working today” by Graphic Design USA. Debbie is a designer, author, educator and host of the podcast, Design Matters where she's interviewed designers, creatives, entrepreneurs like Malcolm Gladwell, Seth Godin, Steven Heller, Tina Roth Eisenberg and many more. Debbie spent 20 years as the President of Design at Sterling Brands, one of the world's top branding firms where she landed the company business with clients like Pepsi, Gilette, Star Wars and more. But Debbie's no stranger to the side hustle… she actually started freelancing on the side of her very first day job straight out of college—she did design work for small local businesses in her neighborhood in New York City. Since then, she's grown to having numerous side projects including her podcast, writing 6 books, teaching the Masters in Branding program at the School of Visual Arts, being the creative director at Print magazine, a blogger for Fast Company, and president emeritus of the American Institute of Graphic Arts, to name a few. Special thanks to our sponsor for this episode, Freshbooks: Cloud accounting for freelancers, solopreneurs and side hustlers.

This week on the MashReads Podcast, we read and discuss Angie Thomas' new YA novel The Hate U Give. The Hate U Give follows Starr Carter, a black teen who witnesses her unarmed friend Khalil get shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop. In addition to having to face the trauma of witnessing the shooting, as the sole witness to the incident, Starr finds herself at the center of the trial against the cop that shot Khalil. But after speaking to her police department about the incident, Starr quickly learns that any sense of justice following the shooting is going to be hard fought — rather than investigating the officer, the authorities conduct a character attack on Khalil, who was a drug dealer at the time of his death, with rumors circulating that he may have been in a gang. Now, mourning the loss of her friend, Starr must figure out how to find her voice and speak out, even while both cops and people in her neighborhood seek to silence her. Then, inspired by the way The Hate U Give addresses gun violence and police brutality, we discuss our favorite socially conscious literature including Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian by Sherman Alexie, The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander, Citizen by Claudia Rankine, White Teeth by Zadie Smith, and Shrill by Lindy West. Aliza recommends Harry Styles' solo album Harry Styles. "His stuff is so good. It's got this '70s/ '80s vibe. I was literally listening to it on loop for a good two days." Martha recommends Amandla Stenberg's cover of Mac DeMarco's song Let My Baby Stay. "She directed the video and edited it, and it's so amazing. She's so talented." You can watch the performance here. Martha also recommends watching The Bachelorette. MJ recommends the Twitter account WeRateDogs™, a Twitter account that gives very optimistic and absurd ratings to dog photos.

Jerrika L. Waller chats with Matt Nelson, creator of the popular Twitter account WeRateDogs. With nearly 2 million followers, the account has been used to quantitatively assess a variety of canines, as well as dismiss haters and occasionally advocate against the current political administration. In this interview, Jerrika and Matt discuss how the account was created, the celebrities whose shout-outs helped promote it, the importance of copyright and attribution, Matt's current studies in golf management, and more. This interview was recorded on April 17, 2017.
