Kanban involves creating a board by dividing your work into columns such as \u201cto do\u201d, \u201cin progress\u201d, and \u201cdone\u201d. You then write your task on cards and keep moving them from column to column as you go on with them.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4878\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4878\" style=\"width: 422px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4878\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.flintzy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/27152837\/IMG_20220827_152714-267x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"422\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.flintzy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/27152837\/IMG_20220827_152714-267x300.jpg 267w, https:\/\/cdn.flintzy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/27152837\/IMG_20220827_152714.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 422px) 100vw, 422px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4878\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Image Credit: myndset.uk via instagram)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This technique is simple but effective.

Vanessa Lau and Cathrin Manning both recommend that creators batch-create their videos because it allows them to focus all of their time, attention, and energy on that task alone for a period of time before moving on to other tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a few days marked on your calendar to batch-film content alone. You can pick how many videos you want to create during a particular time period. For example, if you want to film a month\u2019s worth of videos in a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to Batch Content for Youtube (3 Months of Content in 2 Weeks!)\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yf8WvdCp2Xc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">YouTube Content Planning can help spark ideas and boost your creativity.
