Just discovered Bizly and his game essays on #YouTube. He does these bits where he places himself in some of the scenes, sometimes for drama or comedy, usually just the vibe.
They’re so extra, sometimes cheesy. But notice that he spends the time to light himself for the scene he’s in, I assume with post processing. It’s so above and beyond what I usually see in this genre of essay. I appreciate it.
Good examples:
