For a video to be compelling, it often needs some elements of fun. That's not always true, but it usually is.

Most YouTubers start out really stiff and they just look uncomfortable. Well, I've got some news for you. That's uncomfortable to watch...

So in this lesson, I'll talk through several ways you can add some fun to your videos in a really organic way, and I'll show you examples of how we have used them in our videos.

This is by no means an exhaustive list! Others I've come up with already since filming are...

1. Add bloopers to the end of the video (and sometimes keep a blooper in a video and just play the blooper "beep" sound and move on)
2. Pranks - if you have other people on your channel, play a little prank on them and film it. You can show short clips of it in a video where it has a tie-in to the main content.
