If a creator you love has split a video into two parts, how did they schedule it? Was it like parts 1 and 2 dropped simultaneously? I would hate to make anyone wait, but I want to include as much footage as possible.

And as a treat for Patreon I'm dropping a long version no matter what :)

that is all!

I think most reactors drop them simultaneously

If I follow a creator I'm satisfied with however they do it if they're doing what they want. It's their channel, not mine...;-)

I’ve seen people leave a couple of days between parts 1 & 2. It can build the anticipation, especially if it’s hyped up for the second part.

Jonah Messenger

I see some drop one a week to keep with scheduling. But as a fan, I typically don't watch until the second part comes out.

Jerry Almonte

I've seen most do them simultaneously. There's not much of a point for a cliffhanger on the audience end since we've already seen the movie 😄

RJ Skinner

I don't think there is a "wrong way" per se, but I would prefer it be one drop of 2 episodes so I can binge my favorite creator!

Anthony MacEwan

I see a lot of dropping a part 2 the next day.

Rhett Samios

I’ve not seen it done regularly that they drop both simultaneously. I’ve seen it pretty commonly done that part 2 is dropped a few hours after part 1, or that part 2 is dropped the next day at roughly the same time that part 1 was dropped.

Depends. If it's a two-part tv episode, they'll post both on the same day, or spaced a day apart. If it's a something long like infinity War, I've seen them split and posted spaced several days, if not a week apart. Ashleigh has done that a few times.

I think the cliffhanger with a reaction isn't the content, but the anticipation for the next part of the reaction to that content. Like, I know Thanos is getting snapped, but not how "Mark watches Marvel" is going to react to it.

Most of the reactors I've seen that split reactions into parts drop them a few days apart from each other. I think both ways have merit, but I *believe* that YT punishes "over-publishing" (too many videos in a week, IIRC), so that might be something to think about. Frankly, though, you probably know better about that than I do.

I have seen 20 minutes, 1 hours, 1 day, 2 days or 1 week, or anything in between. It really depends on how you want to schedule it.

I’ve seen all kinds. I’ve seen them drop them simultaneously. I’ve seen them wait a day or two. I’ve also seen a couple of them post one half and then not post the other half for a month. And that’s just ridiculous. Personally, I’d like to see the second half the same day, but no later than a day or two. I mean, you want to keep the fans happy. Making people wait a long time doesn’t do that.

I've seen them drop both parts at once, and I've seen them drop a part 1 then part 2 a couple of days later. Whatever works best for you.

panacamanana

I’ve seen a lot of people handle it differently. Some do the cadence of the releases, others back to back, and some do it one day and part two the next. It’s just w/e you feel like doing.

Garrett

With your Sat drops and the occasional Sun, I almost recommend just doing one part each day. It seems like a good traffic/algo generation move.

Michael Buhl

I strongly tend to prefer one long reaction video over at two parter, and I will rarely get around to watching the second video assuming I even get around to watching the first part. However, I can't explain why this is. It's likely to end up being the same amount of time, and a two parter is likely to be more convenient for watching a long reaction.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

It is your channel to do as you like, but I prefer the two parts to be drop within a couple of days of each other not weeks.

Merkahn:^)

I don’t mind split reactions, as long as they are not too far apart in release. Just as long as we get to enjoy more of you! Love your channel.

Joe

I think splitting into 2 parts is totally fine. If it is a movie i would release them very close to each other though. if it is a TV show, i think you have more flexibility since they are episodes in the first place.

Andrew Howard

I've seen a few solutions. One of the more common solutions I've seen is dropping part 1 on the normal day, and then dropping part 2 the next day, even if it isn't a normal video day. I don't know all the reasons, but it makes some sense, so people are a little less likely to start Part 2 first by accident, and it's probably nice for metrics to have a bunch of people pop back the next day, but IDK how that side works. I think a one day split is fine from a viewer standpoint. I can wait longer if I need to though.

Bpark

Usually I think they drop them on YT the same day or within a couple of hours. At least for movies 🍿

Adam Doyle

Ideally they would both be available at the same time. But no longer than 1 week apart would be ideal.
