Same! This has been the daunting task for me mainly since I want a specific theme but can do only basic editing skills and with that I don't know how to achieve that theme. I would love it as well if you could touch up on the editing apps/software we could use to achieve a certain thing. Thanks!
Your videos have been such a huge inspiration. Honestly, whenever I've had a particularly down day as an artist; I'll come to your channel because your positivity is such a great reminder that all of this takes time, and each step is a step towards improvement. Congrats to you both for reaching 100K; you deserve it and much more!

Congratulations Mimi! This is so well deserved! I'm so glad you're making business content for artists and being so transparent, the art community needs more of this!
Congrats to 100k subscribers! ❤ A You-Tube-Course from you and Dan would be fantastic!
those camera tripod contraptions are genius! 😮 congratulations on 100k! ❤
I would LOVE a video like that. You don´t know how long I´ve been looking for material like this but for artists. Everything is very lifestyle content centered, or artists usually don´t share how they make their own videos. And this is why I like this channel so much.

That's such lovely feedback, thank you!
A course on making KZread videos would be amazing 😍 I've been subscribed and following you since ish 1000 subscribers. It's surely been a journey and I'm so happy for you 🎉❤
Mimi, your KZread journey is truly inspiring, and your dedication to sharing your creative process and helping others on their artistic journeys shines through your videos. 🌟Throughout your journey, were there any funny or unexpected moments that happened behind the scenes while filming or editing your videos? 😄🎥

I completely agree! Mimi's commitment to maintaining her values and not compromising for views is commendable. It's crucial to create content that aligns with your beliefs and values to maintain authenticity and build a loyal audience. Additionally, her idea of creating a course on making and editing videos for KZread is a great initiative. It would be beneficial for beginners looking to start their own channels. Overall, Mimi's story serves as a motivating example for those considering starting a KZread channel, emphasizing the importance of patience, passion, and staying true to oneself. Thanks for sharing Mimi! Looking forward for more contents like this!

Agree! It's incredible to see how her channel has grown in terms of subscribers and the impact it has had on her life and business.
Love your transparency! Also i love that you mentioned that showing your face is not required! For someone with social anxiety and disability, that’s reassuring!
Your channel has been so valuable to me, thank you so much! I've just started my KZread journey but I'm already seeing such great feedback and you're definitely one of the people who has helped motivate me. I quit my job to focus full time on this and my art. I'm so happy I did!!

you’re amazing! congrats on this huge milestone and for consistency pushing out amazing art content
Yes please … a video about how you create KZread videos would be so useful! Thank you for another inspiring video. 😊
Congrats on such a huge milestone!!! 💕💕 100k is so awesome! Can’t wait to reach that one day! I’ll love a video of how you make your videos 💕 I’m in the ‘text’ phase of my video journey. ☺️
As I am currently starting my own journey, both as a self-employed artist and potential youtuber, I would love a crash course to creating videos! Your content inspires me like no other. Much love! 💖
Thank you Mimi! I would like to start my YT channel and I have basics skills.. So a video for editing would be great! ❤🙂

You should start your channel, do you have a budget for video editing software or do you want something free?
Thank you for being a wonderful mentor Mimi, sending all the good vibes 🎉
Yes, Yes, Yes! I would love to see a course on creating videos for artists. My channel is just in the early stages and I have lots of ideas but I would love to learn from someone who is making something similar to what I want to make!
Your art journey is a huge inspiration for me❤ I love this kind of video, where you show how you've started and how you and your art have changed and grown since then. Absolutely yes to the course!
Yes please on the video course!
This is helpful to small artists Keep it up and more success to your channel
You are such an inspiration to me and I can’t wait to start my own KZread channel 🥹🥹🥹
Congratulations mimi for 100K Subscribers 🎉😍
You’re one of my main inspirations to actually starting my art channel on KZread. I’m still right at the initial stages but I’ve loved following your journey over the years. Thank you so much for being and inspiration and guide!🫶🏼🌸✨
Oh yes, please a video about making youtube videos. Yours are sooo well made, I love it.
I'd love to see a course on creating art focused youtube videos! I've been working on trying to get my art out there more often and I'd like to create content more, but working a full time job leaves me so burnt out. Your videos are truly inspiring and full of great information!
Really well done he did great explaining it was very valuable. I hope you have thousands of viewers and make lots
Yes to course on making YT videos. Thanks!
Thank you once again for this video as it is giving me courage and confidence about my art and what I want to do with it. Drawing and painting are a part of me that I would love to share with the world. Yes, I am over 55 and scared about social media and not knowing how to start an online venture, even though I have Instagram and FB. Since I have been following you I have been drawing and painting everyday and getting better at it in the area of illustrating. Thank you for inspiring me to do so. I would love to for you to do a video on how to start or do a YT channel. (I started one years ago and gave up) Maybe you are the one that would push me to do it. OH! and you like F1!!!!! we love F1 here!!! big fans even though my favorite driver left many years ago.. Kimi Raikonnen... Thank you once again and looking forward to one day meeting you and your partner in person.
Very many congratulations on passing 100k 🎉🎉🎉

This is so encouraging, im fairly new to the game and always wonder if im using my time wisely working on this. Seeing channels like yours is an amazing reminder of what one can achieve if they just put in the work. I really love your content, stay awesome ❤
Always love your positivity. It's always lovely to watch your videos :)
Really amazing video! Lots of food for thought, I have just shared a video sharing how much I have made from KZread, and it is a loooot less lol. But it is good to see both sides of the spectrum :) Thank you for sharing x
Congratulations Mimi ❤️ I'm really happy for you 🎉 I love your video content and artworks. They're too adorable.
Making yt videos is so much fun when you're doing it about something you love and enjoy. Mine is crochet and it's great ^_^
I would love to see that Art Course for creatives to start on KZread!
This is so great! Thanks for breaking everything down like this 🖤
Hi Mimi, I've only discovered your channel last night. Thank you for providing us all these valuable informations about being a creator, your videos are absolutely inspiring! I have also started my channel like you did and filmed "very easy" videos but eventually I want to be an artist like you and give value to my subscribers. A course for filming and editing youtube videos from you and Dan would be really helpful. Thank you very much!
It actually kind of reassures me that you didn't use any specific music for your first videos and people would still look at them. I like to post real time process videos and searching for royalty free, long enough, musics to put on the recordings is such a mess that I don't want to bother with it at the moment haha Great video as always, and congrats for your milestone ! Also thank you for sharing so much😊
This is so inspiring... thank you Mimi!! ☀🌈
Congratulations! And thank you for your content! It felt especially nice to hear you promoting sticking to your morals.
I love how you acknowledge your team I can see how detailed you get with your information such as certain months you want to talk about personally
I would love to take a video course from you both. You're videos have a very approachable feel and you describe the material in an easy to understand way. Thanks for all you do 💖
100k seems like another universe away.
I would totally take your course 😊 been inspired to start my own journey by you so thank you 🥰
Congrats!! This is so awesome and inspiring! Thank you for sharing and here’s to many more years!🎉
Another professional and inspiring video! I especially liked the part about maintaining your values. 👍
Your videos helped me take the first step to posting art videos and being comfortable posting what I love to do. I definitely would like to see more helpful lessons from you guys. Good luck to you!

Ooh I would definitely love a course on how you film and edit your videos!
Wonderful journey... Yes would love to see more on more artist based related videos
Yes, a video on video editing and creation would be excellent, thank you!
Congratulations on 100k. You're a great inspiration for me. I do collages but you inspired me for my last voiceover video tour of my home art studio 😊
Congratulations!!🎉
Thank you for this video! Very inspiring. I also just started my channel and already learned a ton of new skills. What people often don't realize( and what I recently accepted) it that its a long term process. Alot of youtubers make it sound like you will get monitize and make money in weeks! So I went In with the wrong expectation. So thank you for you honesty. And I would like to learn more from your course! 🌸
Would love a course on editing and creating videos for KZread. There are lots of courses out there, but not many from creators that are actually in the arts & design world. Many are also coming from a clickbaity / mr.beast vibe which is fun to watch but resonates less with me as a maker. So your perspective and aesthetic would be super highly appreciated on this topic.
I would love to learn from you more and yes, I'd like you to make videos for beginners! It would help a lot of fresh illustrators! Thank you for being such an inspiration!❤❤
Really inspirational! Congrats for your journey ✨
I would love to see a video made by you two about making videos for KZread!
I really like you laying out your master plan it helps me think about what I want so much.
I find you such an inspiration here on KZread! I'd love to see a course on how you create videos tailored to artists! Yoo keep me inspired not only on my art but also my srt business! ❤❤❤
Thank you so so much for sharing this video with us! :)
A coutse is such a great idea!!! I would def take it❤ Thank you for sharing!
I just started my art channel so videos like this are insanely useful and motivational. Thank you so so much for sharing your journey, hope mine will be as successful as yours one day ❤
yess! I would LOVE a course from you guys! I love your filming and editing style and would love to see how you do it!
Congratulations! I need my work to be more cohesive and recognizable. Would love a video or a link to one of your videos about having a cohesive body of work.
Congratulations Mimi!I just started my art channel recently, this video is really useful!❤
A KZread course would be great! I really enjoy your videos. Keep it up 😊
Congratulations Mimi! 🥳 I don't really comment much on social media, but I just had to after this video! I have watched every one of your videos and really enjoy your content. You are one of my biggest inspirations and influences when it came to me deciding to start my art KZread channel. I love the dedication and hard work that the two of you share as a team. That being said, I would LOVE to have a course specifically for beginner art KZreadrs. That's definitely something I would invest in! 💵Anyway, keep up the great work and wishing you much more success in the future!
Congrats on 100K!! And thanks for the great videos, I've only just come across your channel so looking forward to seeing more (A fellow Aussie here, living in the French Alps and really keen to also start my own channel at some point!)
Definitely would love a video on creating videos as an artist!!!
just started out my own art channel, content like yours is so inspiring and motivating, thank you for creating 🤍
Congratulations! 🎉 thank you for all the Content and Inspiration ❤ I think it is also the Quality of you Videos That let your Channel Grow. You Make Amazing videos!
Thank you so much for your inspirational videos . I'm at the beginning of my KZread journey and the advice to just start is so true. I'm learning with each new video and making tweaks each time:-)
Lovely video as always. The course idea is amazing, please do make one, your videos, the storytelling and editing approach are really unique ❤
Your videos are so informative! I love how you work with your partner and the support that is being highlighted on every video that you make. More power to the both of you. Thank you for creating valuable contents. :) and yes please, for the video editing process for artists for creating a YT channel. Godbless! :) Congrats to 100k!
Congrats on 100k and thank you for always inspiring me & other creatives to keep going! 💛
❤you’ve worked so hard and we’re thankful for you sharing your journey
Congrats on the milestone of 100K! Thank you for your tips and showing how your youtube art journey went. I'm currently trying to also grow my youtube art channel and I really needed to know how other people have done it in a normal and natural way. Otherwise it's so discouraging sometimes, so thank you Mimi!!!
Your videos are encouraging and inspiring. I appreciate them so much.💕
Congrats on the 100K! Love your channel, and you and Dan make such great videos. I would love it if you made that short course on how you create them, especially on how you're making them such fun to watch using animations, motion graphics and transitions.
The encouragement at the end was really sweet ✨ I am so happy for you to reach that many subscribers ☺
I would love to learn about making videos! I love your videos so much. Your voice is so soothing and you've such a kind manner
Thank you, this is such a great motivation to continue 😄 Congratulations on reaching 100.000 subscribers, that is amazing! And so well deserved.
Your journey is so inspiring, and thanks to your teamwork your content has so much quality. This video really cheered me up not to give up even if I am far to have your skills, maybe it will take longer for me but I want to believe I can do it too ☺️Thank you so much for sharing with us.

I've been following your journey for a while now and it's very inspiring to me as I am trying to do something similar (growing an Instagram and KZread channel related to art/writing). I am still learning and my videos aren't as beautiful/informative as yours but I am enjoying this journey :) having so much fun so far! Your journey inspires me to keep going with these projects. :)
