EthansFX Handgun with reloadable clip by Left4ComedyXD

Having a series in your blog or YouTube channel is a good way to keep visitors interested. It’s also a good way to interact with your subscribers.

Series can use any topic or format. One good format for kids is the tutorial or “how-to” video because it let’s them show off their skills.

Ethan of Left4ComedyXD has a series called Ethan’s FX where he explains how to make “really cheap props for movies or just for messing around.”

I watched several of these tutorials and I was impressed. Ethan has a knack for teaching and puts a lot of effort into the videos.

EthansFX Handgun

Ethan and his co-host Dummy Ethan choose a project by checking a magical policeman’s hat. Ethan lists the items needed for the project and then the demonstration begins.

The video editing isn’t perfect but everything is explained and Ethan adds safety and other tips.

Ethan finishes his video by inviting his viewers to send in ideas for future shows.

The chosen project is good because it’s easy to do. Younger kids may need help with the cutting and painting but even they can do this project. Furthermore, the items needed can be found around the house.

I enjoyed watching this video and I recommend it to kids and parents looking for something fun to do. I also recommend the Fake Knife and Wrist Communicator tutorials.
