My team and I have been evaluating how different backgrounds in my videos impact audience retention and watch time on my videos. We’ve found a similar theme among those videos and am investing into an idea that we think could boost watch time and audience retention even higher. So, I hired a videographer to help me with it. This is a behind-the-scenes look at a new approach I’m taking to videos on this channel and the metrics I’ll be tracking in YouTube analytics to see what kind of impact it has on the channel overall.
