Can someone give many ideas? ugh I have no idea what to do

 

(credit to Onyx Angel for the music)

as you can see the only idea I had was to sync the idea in with the snare (correct me if im wrong)

 

EDIT: A much better intro has been made

I recommend a lot of clips from different games maybe combined in your intro, people will think you have a lot of experience playing through video games. Especially if they're clipped well with the music. Starting from scratch is sometimes a good thing to ensure a very pristine intro. If you have a friend who's an animator, I'd see if he could animate a short bit for you.

 

OR check this site out, they have some customizable intros available for you to tinker aroun' with.

First tip: Change your youtube name.

 

Second tip: Put some diversity into your text animations, i.e. Don't use the same slow-roll intro for every text introduction.

 

Third tip: Put some diversity into your game choices. If you intend to do a variety of let's plays or other things along those lines, showcase a short clip of each game you've done. You can even do that quick image flash which so many others do.

 

Fourth tip: Don't make the intro any longer than it has to be. Production-quality titles usually just swing around their production name with a bland or content-filled background. Without saying "Presents..."

 

 

Best tip: Don't have an intro. The video title is capable of explaining everything the viewer needs to know -- five seconds is all it takes to lose the interest of every normal internet-goer.

 

Side note: I don't know anything about intros. They just annoy me. .-.

Maybe make it more actiony. Like maybe capture some insane gameplay footage of like things blowing up and stuff. Something like this:
