Define Original Content?

[AWOKEN]

People keep commenting on pretty much every on content on YouTube nowadays being unoriginal
It makes me wonder what does original means?

[SMIFFY]

Not screaming like an idiot at the camera whenever anything happens would be a start.

[Wortal]

Maybe they're referring to the structure of the videos, the style.

[MADWACZ]

Not mimicking or meme from other people.

[AWOKEN]

Well technically there already exist a video each type of thing we are interested and or need but how can we make a video that seems similar to another channel without getting called "unoriginal"

What do you mean by a video similar to another channel though?

[MADWACZ]

Make YouTube channel without watching other peoples channels.

You don't. If you're a copycat, you're a copycat.

How bout this is Jontron and Filthy Frank technically copying eachother (I don't really know who came first, and can't be bothered searching)?, I mean they both rant and do skits in each of their videos or would it count as a genre because they rant about different things?

No, they aren't copying each other. Their content is quite different.

Huh, it's hard to define original, since most of the things you can think of doing has probably been done multiple times by a bunch of normies. I define original content, content that has purpose and is entertaining, and doesn't copy the style and tone of other channels.

I mean if you break it down to how they rant/review excluding their other type of videos have a they have a sort of similar structure
Correct me if i'm wrong
