Hello wonderful Patrons,
We have a new video coming out very soon, and we'd love your feedback.
Here's the link -- https://youtu.be/BBqMB2-NdCk
What do you think of it? Are we making any errors? Anything bothering you? Anything not clear? Does the story check out? There's a lot of math, and we've done our best to get it right, but it's possible some mistakes have slipped through -- please help us find them.<...

Hello wonderful people,
Here's a draft of a video! It's coming out really soon -- next day or so. Would you please look through and tell us what you like, what you don't like, what feels good, what feels wrong, what facts we got wrong, and what stories we should include.
There's still a few animations that need updating, and the ending is a little rough -- but we'll get there very soon.

Dear Patrons,
Thank you for all of your input into the video yesterday. It's very helpful as always.
The video will be up in about 12 hours, so we're trying to find the right way to package it -- which of these two titles do you prefer more?
Here's the google form where you can vote on your preference -- https://docs.google.co...

Hi everyone!
New video coming out soon! Linking it down below. As usual, we would also love to hear your feedback - any thoughts, suggestions, confusions, corrections, you name it - let us know.
(Still getting some animations in, so use your imagination for the placeholders, but otherwise pretty close to finished.)
Hope you enjoy!!!

Hello wonderful supporters!
We've been working hard on a video, and would love your feedback. There's a few animations that need to be polished, and the music and sound effects will change, but it's pretty close to a final version. We would love your feedback -- what do you think of this video? Which parts work for you? What doesn't? What mistakes are we making? Is there anything that is confusing to you? Is there anything we should add? Is there anything to take away?
Any and a...

Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for all your great feedback on our videos. We've got a new one coming out tomorrow and we'd love to hear from you.
You know the drill by now - we'd love some help picking a title/thumbnail. Before watching our sneak preview, we'd be very thankful if you voted on your favorites in this Google Form. First, let us know which one of these two videos you would most likely click on:

Hello!
Do you speak French? Can you help us out?
We're submitting a few of last year's videos for the ParisScience film festival. We've had them professionally translated into French, but we want to make sure no mistakes slipped in.
We'd really appreciate the help if a French speaking Patreon supporter could watch over these videos with a keen eye, and see if anything stands out. If you can do this in the next few days, please send me an email -- petr@veritasium.com

Hey Everyone,
Thank you so much for your feedback on the last video. Because of your feedback, we chopped out some sections at the last minute and I think it really improved the narrative.
I have one more video before this month is out and it is the follow-up to the big lightbulb circuit riddle from last year. I really want to get this one right to answer all the questions raised by the first video. So please take a look and let me know what you think.
Best,
Derek

Hello wonderful folk,
We're about to release a video that is very near and dear to us. I think it's good, I think it's important, and it's also a heavy topic to cover. Here's a link to a draft -- it's missing a few things but it's pretty close to the final version.

Hello wonderful people. The whole team has been working hard on a bunch of videos, and we are launching one of them on Sunday. It's a little different to the usual -- and it's likely the most dangerous video we've made in recent memory. I think it's a good one.
Here's a link to the most recent draft -- it's missing some animation so you'll need to imagine some things, but it's pretty close to done.

Hi All,
I hope you're having a great start to 2022. I took the month of January off to have a vacation with my family in Australia. We've enjoyed it so much here that we're staying a little longer. But I am getting back to work with the first video for this year being the second part of the analog computing video (linked is a low res draft).
I would love to get your thoughts on this video. I'm sure some of you are better versed in neural networks and computing than I am so p...

Thanks for all your support this year. I think we have one last video to publish before the holidays:

It has literally just ticked over to 11pm here on the West Coast and I need to launch a video before the day is out. So that gives us an hour at most. Your feedback on the title and thumbnail of the helicopter video was incredibly helpful. I got the poll results after launch and quickly switched to your preferred title and thumbnail and clickthrough measurably improved.
Now here is a...

I have been working on this video (very slowly) for over two years. There are no masks in it because all the interviews were filmed before Covid. It is a different kind of video for me - it deals with issues related to violent crime, law enforcement and privacy. Of course there is a lot of science involved as well, but it alone can't provide answers to some of the central questions that are raised.
My plan is to go live with this video on Thursday morning. So I would appreciate any feed...

Hello wonderful Patreon supporters, this is Petr who works on the videos with Derek. Derek went to sleep an hour or two ago (at 4:00 am his time...) but I live in Sydney so I'm finishing some things up for tomorrow's upload.
First off, thank you so much for the people who watched the draft of tomorrow's video and have given their feedback. We've taken it on board and the video is better for it.
I am asking for your help again with the title/thumbnail selection -- you know the dr...

Hi All,
This new video should be out in a day or two (all going well) so I'd love to get your opinion on title and thumbnail. If you have other suggestions, please put them in the comments below. Thanks again for your input - whether a video gets seen depends so heavily on this single image and title.
Best,

Sorry for the repost - was having trouble with the poll feature revealing results before voting.
Which of the above titles and thumbnails are you more likely to click?

Each video represent hundreds of person-hours to create. And the most important thing to get right is the <50 characters of the title and a single image.
So I once again request your input. Which of these are you more likely to click?

Dear Patrons,
I have a final draft of a video that I would love to get your input on. My purpose in making this video is to change minds (or at least introduce doubt) around the utility of learning styles. Does this accomplish that goal? Are there questions you feel the video leaves unanswered? Any other notes?
And thank you for helping me make these videos better. I really appreciate your support and insightful input.
