So glad to see TPU finally on youtube!

I like the intro & decent job on presenting tech news, pretty formal. Can't wait to this grows well over time :toast:

natr0n · Sep 30, 2015

which tpu member is that ?

RCoon · Sep 30, 2015

Oh lawdy, competition with NPU, except with 1000 times more potential subscribers. We're doomed!

Great job @zithe :toast:

Rivage · Sep 30, 2015

GZ on launch! Keep up good work.

Shou Miko · Sep 30, 2015

I wonder if this is W1zzard or cadaveca i dunno why only these 2 popped up in my head :laugh:

*Edit*

I think i might solved it by watching the video...

rtwjunkie · Sep 30, 2015

It's @zithe

LiveOrDie · Sep 30, 2015

Nice job please change the back ground for the next video as reminds me of cardboard and makes it hard to focus its like starting at a tin wall.

TheDeeGee · Sep 30, 2015

Lol at the Asus rip-off of the Creative ACM.

FreedomEclipse · Sep 30, 2015

@zithe You need an Elvis wig and a pair of aviators......

At least he has the "balls" to put his face up to represent TPU. Good job zithe, hope this matures into a more refined news-bringing medium.

swirl09 · Sep 30, 2015

Very stiff/robotic. This is what I imagine watching the news on TV decades ago was like when showing personality was illegal. Dont like the background.

Before shooting, jump up and down, howl, shake your head, and then keep some energy in your speech and your face animated. I wouldnt continue watching if you dont loosen the hell up.

rtwjunkie · Sep 30, 2015

I think he's getting better each time I see him. It takes alot to get in front of the camera, knowing not only are your peers on TPU going to see it, but lots more people worldwide.

It will come easier with time. @swirl09, your suggestions in paragraph 2 are actually prettty good, and not too different from what we did in high school drama before going out and performing plays.

zithe · Sep 30, 2015

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'm excited to see how this all develops. I'm confident it'll just get better and I'll strike a good balance of enthusiasm and clarity with it.

Fx · Sep 30, 2015

Haha. Awesome. This totally caught me off guard. It's a good progressive step for Techpowerup.

manofthem · Sep 30, 2015

Nicely done TPU :toast:

Great work, I found it quite enjoyable. I'm looking forward to MOAR!

MilkyWay · Sep 30, 2015

Better than the first video by far, i actually enjoyed watching it not to say the other video was terrible it was passable but this improved on many aspects. MUCH prefer the intro this time around; having the topics listed, then the intro logo and then firing into the news was much less jarring than listing off the topics and going straight into them without a cut.

Referencing other stuff in the bulletin was a nice touch like when Zithe said that there has been feedback on TPU own forums, regarding previous ASUS sound cards on their lackluster drivers. Also some nice personal touches without them being opinionated.

Overall good start, will get better in the future.

That orange shit is beast btw lmao.

Agreed 100%.
I've done videos and it takes a lot of practice to get decent at it.
This made me bored after 3 seconds, sorry, but I'm honest.
This could be good, but it needs a lot more energetic presenter and a bright background.

No, the video reminds me of the TPU website.

AxGaming · Oct 1, 2015

nice.

Xzibit · Oct 1, 2015

Progress is good although I noticed the lack of Ewok chest hair.

Prima.Vera · Oct 1, 2015

You're doing great. Try to be more energetic and passionate like that dude Linus from Linus Tech. But this is just my personal opinion.
Good luck.

15th Warlock · Oct 1, 2015

Nice! Just what TPU needed, more media presence :rockout:

Congrats to everyone involved in this endeavor and I'm looking forward to the next video upload! :lovetpu:
