Hello! I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out to seek some insights regarding our YouTube channel strategy, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
To give you a bit of context, we recently created and published several product videos on our YouTube channel. These videos explain the features and applications of our autonomous robots and currently live in an "About Starship Robots" playlist. While these videos were initially in English, we've expanded their accessibility by adding versions with Audio Descriptions and ASL overlay (separated into a playlist called, ‘Audio Description: About Starship Robots’), and, now, we’re starting translations for new markets.
Here's where I'm facing a dilemma. With multiple versions of the same video, organizing them into playlists has become a bit challenging. The idea of having 3+ different versions in language-specific playlists would make navigation on the channel too tricky, especially given its current scattered state. While unlisted versions of the videos have been suggested for presentations, the team behind them feels strongly about making the videos publicly accessible for everyone to benefit from.
Specifically, I'm wondering:
- How do you manage multiple versions of the same video on your YouTube channel? Or is this something you haven’t dealt with?
- Have any of you encountered similar challenges, and if so, what solutions have you found effective?
I admit I'm a bit inexperienced with YouTube, and any insights or advice you can provide would be immensely helpful. I appreciate your time and expertise! - Reid
