In case you were wondering what the "release schedule" is, it's. Week 1: Interview Release Week 2: .5 Game Review Release Week 3: Conducting Interview, No Release. (Repeat) [EDIT]: I've decided to stop doing .5 Game reviews, this schedule thing is invalid. |

Post subject: | Re: Go Talk Announcement Thread |
I think that you need to provide some kind of description and direction. People like me are lazy and we come equipped with the attention span of a gnat. Personally I watched the first video that you had posted and enjoyed it. However, currently I just see the uninformative statement that 'episode X is up' and do not feel any incentive to follow up since there is no description. I did not realize that the complete list, including descriptions, was in the OP. IMHO your individual announcements should be like this: Quote: Episode 4 is up! Movies https://youtu.be/jrTSo_Y3n8s Talking with me for this episode is Cole D. Pruitt, Co-Director and Producer of "The Surrounding Game". We talk about the movie, thoughts behind it, and some experiences he's had while filming this movie. Go? Go. (See the original post for a list of all my videos with links) With all the important info repeated in the OP. |
