You want to start a YouTube channel but you don't have the time to film your own videos or you don't want to present on camera or maybe show your face... that's ok! Many channels make great videos and grow without ever filming themselves.
AI has completely changed the game for creators. You can now produce full videos using AI-generated scripts, voiceovers, visuals, and even documentary-style edits or comedy sketches — without ever turning on a camera. And beyond AI, there are countless no-face formats: POV channels, product-only videos, creative builds, screen recordings, first-person location walkthroughs, and more. Whether you want to stay away from being in front of camera presenting or simply focus on what you’re creating instead of being on camera, there are more options than ever to build and grow a channel your way.
If you're not sure what types of videos you want to make, what niche of genre; that's OKtoo! I have examples (both AI and non-AI) of youtube niches that don't use their own recorded video footage and are successful and with the practice exercise in this course i'll show you exactly how to find out what you should be making videos about and how to do this.
**Imust emphasize, please familiarize yourself with the YouTube fairuse policy! Yes you could possible use footage from other videos (think news footage, reporting, movie reviews) but you must add to it, commentate or change it substantially and be adding (very important, not just using the content) to the content; do not just copy big chunks of video. Link to the fairuse policy in the first lecture description or search "YouTube Fairuse Policy" on Google. There is a whole lecture on this later in the course. As a rule please use original footage only or stock footage legally purchased and you have rights; but the fairuse policy does exist (different to copyright as explained later). If you are using other footage, adhere to the fairuse properly, add to it, discuss it... try not to if possible.
