Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I have some free time after having been laid off, and one of the things I've though about is a video series where I go around the towns that Amtrak stops in between the big cities. The two goals would be to have it make money, and the long term goal being to increase rail interest in the US especially on tracks that already exist. I worry no one would watch it and I'm wasting my time.

Do you have experience in film production?

What makes people watch is not just the subject, but how the subject is presented. If you make something entertaining, informative, artistic… something that captures the audience attention, then they will watch it. And if you want a lot of audience and to have it make money, you need to know marketing.
