A competitor hit one of my videos with a copyright strike. The funny part is that the clip they claimed was only a couple of seconds long, and the video was heavily transformed.
Instead of panicking, I followed the exact process I’ve refined over the years.
I’ve successfully resolved copyright strikes from FIFA, Disney, and multiple competitors.
Most creators don’t realize that even content they believe is transformative can still receive a copyright strike.
The difference isn’t luck—it’s knowing how to respond.
I documented my entire process in a step-by-step PDF.

Unpopular opinion:
90% of YouTube automation channels don’t have an editing problem.
They have a topic selection problem.
Average editing + great topic beats cinematic editing + boring topic every single time.
Police Bodycam is one of those niches people keep overlooking.
• Typical RPM: $7–10+
• Monthly uploads: 6–8
• Target monthly views: 400K–600K
• Potential ad revenue: ~$3K–5K/month
Most videos rely on real incidents, so finding content isn’t the hardest part.
If you know how to write a suspense-driven script, keep retention high, and package the story well with strong thumbnails, this niche can become a very solid long-term income stream.
It’s less about uploading every day and more about quality storytelling.
Everyone is chasing the same AI channels…
Meanwhile, AI-powered 3D animation is quietly taking off.
The workflow is simpler than most people think:
• ChatGPT → Script
• AI tools like Kling/Runway → Faster production
Channels with only a few uploads are already getting massive traction.
The best opportunities are usually the ones people still believe are difficult.
