Hola,

I'm working on creating a history channel. I got the inspiration to do this because I'm that type of guy to tell campfire stories about history and friends and family all love hearing about it. I also posted 1 video about 7 years ago and it gained 1mil views over 2 years so I must have been doing something right.

Before I fully commit to this I have one small problem to solve. Creating animation or just static visuals take a long time to do. What I basically do for each video is that I first do research, then come up with a bullet point script, narrate it, and then work on the visuals. I have a lot of content lined up since I just read history for fun and narrating over a mic isn't even hard, but the visuals is a bottleneck. I'm also not very good at it.

I was thinking of downgrading the quality of visuals to what GradeAUnderA or Casually Explained do. I was also thinking of creating templates that I can reuse often like maps, family trees, timeline charts, battle stats, etc. Currently, the art style I was going for was full on pixel art but I was thinking of dumbing it down to pixel art characters with some generic backgrounds.

To those who watch history and infotainment channels, what do y'all think? Also should I create a new channel or continue off my 6 year old channel that has 300 subs?
