Master tools to modify and manage your videos better.

Using The Youtube Dashboard And Video Manager

Up until now, you were learning and trying to understand how you can get to shooting your first video. And by now, you must have figured that part out. All the research into channel ideas, equipment, editing now has to start coming together as a video. But before that is done, you need to know more about the platform where it is going to be uploaded. And when it comes to YouTube, two of the most important tools are found within the Creator Studio as the Dashboard and the Video Manager.

YouTube offers the YouTube Creator Studio on the platform as a unified interface where you can manage everything related to your videos in one place. To make your channel a success, this is an indispensable tool that you not only need to use, but master as well. To reach the Creator Studio, click on your profile image on the upper right corner of the home page and click on ‘Creator Studio’ in the drop down. In this chapter, we’ll walk you through two of the most important sections - the Dashboard and the Video Manager.

Dashboard 

The first screen/tab that you will see when you open the Creator Studio is the Dashboard. As the name says, this tab will show you an overview of your channel with multiple widgets presenting information from multiple aspects to you. On the top you will see some basic information related to your channel like the total number of Views, Subscribers and the ‘Add widget’ button. And when you click on that button you will see a list of widgets that you can add along with the ones that have been added. Each widget has some of the few standard sections on them which include:

a. Move section: Hover over the grid icon and drag the section to where you’d like it on the page.

b. Remove section: Click the X to remove the section from your dashboard.
