What kind of videos would you like to see in 2025

[Jim Oaks]

Hey all,

In 2025 we'll be working on creating more videos from our gatherings and hopefully get better at it.

Is there anything that you would like to see us do a video on, or any types of videos you'd like to see?

I should have the inside of my shop done by spring and will hopefully start working on some videos in there.

Well as you know I watch more YouTube these days then regular TV. I can find exactly what I wanna watch on the subject I'm interested in at the moment. I subscribe to a lot of channels and check them before I move on. That being said a lot of the channels I follow are overlanding and offroad content. I've noticed they also do short promotion videos for events they are attending. I love the "how to" and the "adventure" videos. I think you have a different audience on YouTube so maybe something to announce the events. If it's just you in front of the garage talking or explaining the events. Besides that I think you do a great job editing. Time will make all of us better at finding the right angle and veiws for the shots.

Do videos on stuff you like and interest you in some way or it will be a chore. You already know what goes into taking video and editing it. Now throw that on some kind of schedule and it will become a grind if you don't like what you are doing.

I agree with Sgtsandman on doing something you like/ enjoy.

what is the scope of the videos? outdoor action vids/ overland activities? How tos? general knowledge? Related activities? etc etc..

personally I would love to see some videos on safe off road recovery, how to use a highlift jack safely, how to get yourself out of a bad situation or what to do if you roll your truck on the trail. things that can go south real fast and real bad if you don't know what your doing.

Also, simple trail repairs. how to put the bead back on the rim, bent or broken suspension components on the trail.

Though it would make great videos. I don't wanna see any trail breaks haha. But yes I see your point.

Building upon this, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to maybe farm out a video to some forum members then do the editing? Might help with things being more varied, show some neat stuff and take some of the grind out of the process.

Might as well get some tites and a cape too...

Stop teasing me.

Maybe on the next adventure you and I can dress up as Batman and Robin.

No tights. We don't need to see that. Besides, he already chastised a couple of us for things we've done in front of the camera.

If you watch the KAT videos, you are seeing that. We all shared files when we got to LBL.

That reminds me. I need to work on my video version of that trip.
