Using the Talent
How can I use my artist or talent more eectively on YouTube?
If you’re a record label, making the most of your artist’s time is essential. Some call them drops, others call
them pick-ups, but when you have time with your talent, be sure to record simple pieces of content that will
have a big promotional impact.
Promotional videos and extra content
• Create YouTube-specic promotional videos
that are reusable as stand-alone videos or
bumpers for archived content. Make them
evergreen, or think ahead and record dierent
bumpers for tent-pole cultural events.
• Always include the key Call to Action: Subscribe
to the channel.
• Have the artist encourage audience
participation: Ask fans questions or solicit
comments and/or response videos.
• Capture casual, unscripted and behind-the-
scenes shots.
