Welcome to History Of One Piece, where I chronicle, review, debate, and analyze the different arcs of One Piece. In this episode, I talk about the origins of One Piece and delve into the first arc which centers around Captain Alvida. Hope you enjoy!
Hey Zenith. I want you to know how ambitious I and impressive I think this project of yours is. It will be really cool to have someone chronicle the One Piece franchise. After watching your first video, I have a few constructive pointers on how to make this truly great:
1. I would invest in some better audio equipment. The cleaner the reception, the more appealing an professional it will sound and the more people will listen to it.
2. Tighter structure. This first video was titled Alvida arc Part 1, yet we spend the whole first half of this video discussing the construction of the show and 4Kids, Funimation, etc. A lot of this stuff would have better been covered in your introduction, that way, you could have jumped much quicker into discussing the first episode in your first video. And for future reference, it would probably be better if you finished all parts of an arc first, then releaced all the video's together, so you don't leave your viewers hanging.
3. I'm sorry, but you need more personality. It's hard for me to see your passion behind this series, therefore it's hard for me to get excited about the video. It just sounds way too mono toned and almsot to much exposition. While I'll say you had a few jokes in your video, they need more punch to them. Have you taken any acting or speech classes?
Have you ever watched Linkara's brilliant web documentary, History Of Power Rangers? If not, you definitely should have a look. That's the level of quality I would like to see a Documentary on One Piece reach. Here, follow the link below.
Hey Gus, Thank you for watching. I fixed the problem with the audio for part 2. For some reason, when I was recording, it recorded with my computer's internal mic instead of my normal microphone which is much better. The new audio is much cleaner, more professional, and fully audible. I see your point about the structure. When I first planned the series, I intended for it to be 2 30 minute episodes or one longer episode. However, when I talked to Mikey-san, he thought it would be best to split up the videos so they are shorter and easier to render. That is also why I included all of the history of the manga and anime in this first part. Episodes were intended to be much longer. I probably should have just included the history in the intro like you said. Also, Mikey did not want all the parts released at once. So, I understand your points about structure but most of that is out of my hands. As for the personality, I really think the problem with that is the audio. I do use a lot of inflection in the recording but its somewhat hard to tell with that internal mic. I actually kind of wanted to downplay the jokes a bit. Comedy is not my strong suit, so I figured it would be best to only have a few jokes here and there. I am an acting minor, so I have taken a few classes. I will try to improve upon my delivery in the future but the focus will remain more on analysis and less on comedy. I am actually a huge fan of Linkara. History Of One Piece was inspired by History Of Power Rangers. I was originally going to have a similar structure to that show but, as I stated above, I had to make a few changes. With all that being said, I will do my best to take your points into consideration and I hope to improve the quality of the show greatly as time goes on. Thank you very much and I hope you continue to watch.
That all sounds good. Actually, I was a theatre minor myself (majored in English and Writing.)
I can understand if you don't want to pad your video's with humor, I just thought the few jokes you did use could could have been a bit more better delivered.
For instance, when you had that comment about Gold Roger's mustache, it probably would have read better if you said something like, "Gold Roger, The King of The Pirates, and whose mustache gives Dr. Robotnik's an run for it's money..."
I will work on my wording and line delivery for my jokes. Episode 2 releases tonight, so you can see if the jokes are better handled. I'm actually leaning more towards snarktitles for the more obvious jokes. I'm also thinking of combining all of the videos for the Alvida arc together once it's complete so you can watch it all as one video. I'll have to redo the audio for part 1 tho.

I don't know, just an idea.
I'm a film major and theatre minor myself. :)
