Endcards/Credits/Draft

Jump to search
Description
This is for credits or when the YouTube endcards appear and not for conclusions with information. (Typically at the end of a video)
Exceptions/ Edge Cases
- YouTube's overlaid annotations should not influence category type decisions, particularly when the segment category is controversial, as they are arbitrarily placed.
- If there is a clean cut to unrelated filler audio or video for YouTube's endcards, mark it as Endcards/Credits .
- A goodbye doesn't necessarily justify an Endcards/Credits segment. A clear audio AND visual cut should separate a goodbye from preceding content before should it be included in an Endcards/Credits segment.
- This helps avoid jarring cuts to a goodbye followed by an Endcards/Credits segment.
- See Daily Dose Of Internet "Intros", just at the end of a video.
Category Edge Cases
- Bloopers and "goodbye" sequences should be Filler Tangent/Jokes
- Sponsor segments should always be cut separately
- Unpaid/Self Promotion / Interaction Reminder (Subscribe) should be cut separately if possible, but can be included ONLY if they cannot be separated
Examples
| Description | Video Link |
|---|---|
| Positive Examples | |
| Self promotion during endcards should be marked Endcards. | What a BEAST - Beast Canyon NUC |
| Interaction Reminder and Self Promotion are lumped together inside the Endcards. | Can a Program BRICK Your PC? |
| The Patreons are given credit in the credit scroll next to the writers. | Space Jam 2 - Terrible But Very Fun |
| Self Promotion and endcards are easily separated. | Why There's a Straight Line Through Scotland |
| The interaction reminder was separated from the endcards. | My channel was deleted... HOW? |
| Endcards overlayed over a non-music segment. The interaction reminder is separated from the endcards, because it is easy to do so. | Katy Perry - Hot N Cold (Lyrics) |
| Bloopers at the end are Filler Tangent/Jokes | This Laptop is ALL SCREEN! |
| The audio at the end is not present in the first-party VOD | Tevy Fonda - AH Animated |
| The clip at 0:19 is completely unrelated and filler for YouTube's endcards overlay | Wenn dein Lehrer endlich mal die Wahrheit sagt |
| Negative Examples | |
| Sponsor trumps endcards. | It's SINFULLY light! - Roccat Syn Pro Air Wireless Gaming Headset |
| Segment which started at 3:02 caused an abrupt audio cut when a smoother transition was possible at 3:07. | Hissing Cat Warms Up To His Foster Mom |
