Engaging content, of course, but after following Casey Neistat's channel for a while, his mastery of editing and their conciseness (concision?) makes his work stand out for me. So many videos I see are made by people without the slightest notion that good audio is necessary, that people aren't interested in watching someone drone endlessly into the camera, and that unless you're doing a feature-length piece, ten minutes or so should suffice--cut the cruft! Oh, and putting text into a video makes a difference, especially when one is trying to convey specific information.
Another example of good work is Papa hiker's channel. Lately I've been thinking about getting a tarp for camping rather than a full tent, and there are a lot of videos that attempt to illustrate how to pitch a tarp in various configurations, but most are just overlong, sodden messes of rambling talk. Papa hiker's videos aren't perfect, but they're concise and well Illustrated.
Just took a shot at my own! I'm really eager to learn how to edit and create fun films as a part time thing. Lemme know what you think!
