Sounds like a good idea! One thing I'd suggest is (quality) posts that get a lot of merits - for example: top merited post for that week - and threads that get a lot of traction maybe ones that get a lot of heavy discussion and interaction too rather than number of replies (like the weight of the posts in a topic).
Theymos suggested doing news stuff on that topic and I'd be interested in trying to make stories neutral and accurate if you needed the help... I think I'm a bit crypto-skeptic when it comes to things like ICOs and altcoins (although I'm not sure I have a firm grasp on crypto news articles as I normally rely on mainstream media for crypto stuff).
Topic: Bitcointalk Youtube channel - what would you like to see? - page 34. (Read 13689 times)
I'd love to see some overwhelming positive content. How about a MrBeast like channel?
For those unfamiliar, MrBeast gives away money, cars, houses, etc. to random people and those in need. It's heartwarming positive content that popularizes the idea of giving away funds to help other people. I think given the success of Bitcoin and this forum, I would personally love to see funds used to help others while encouraging and inspiring others to find the joy in giving.
Here's an example of his content, and one of my favorite videos: I Ordered Pizza And Tipped The House

So let's say I'd start filming tomorrow. What type of content/themes would you like to see?
Things that you'd like to watch, whether you're a grumpy Bitcointalk veteran or just hearing out about our wonderful community.
It would need to be a combination of fun and educative contents focused on forum discussions. I'll love to see a voice over discussions of some forum discussions, with possible animation edits to bring them more to life, that way people would be entertained and may want to head to the forum to join the conversation.Things that you'd like to watch, whether you're a grumpy Bitcointalk veteran or just hearing out about our wonderful community.
Maybe also a weekly interview with one forum member, although this ma be a bit more difficult for privacy reasons, users may not want to go through the stress of ensuring no one can trace their identity through such means.
Weekly awards for best posts, worst posts etc could also be cool.
It's been a while since theymos' suggested a Youtube channel for Bitcointalk. The general sentiment seemed that it would be cool to have one. And I agree!

Was tinkering around and printed/painted that. Could we make it a thing please?

Great info from everyone so far thank you!
Here's the current plan and progress:
Hired a company to film and edit. Production value aimed: very high!
First filming day will be really soon, so the first few episodes will be prerecorded and released when ready.
This whole thing an experiment, so content and format will likely evolve over time, as long as there's interest for it.
Likely themes for the first few episodes feature the BitcoinTalk Anniversary, Community Awards 2020, etc.
In time we'll start doing educational material as well, such as forum guides and news bits. Also interviews!

First filming day was a few days ago. Hopefully it won't be the only filming day, looking forward to adding more of the cool ideas in! Grin
We're also working on the channel's artwork. We'll likely need more materials so if you know any crypto artists that would feel inspired by the idea, point them here!
After we get a teaser and basic graphics done, the URLs will go public.
