There is a lot of great advice out there when it comes to steemit, and there are so many different avenues you can take.
I am sorry you feel a detachment! Making your own videos would be amazing! Definitely have some fun with it! I recently downloaded a free video editor (there is a steep learning curve on it but it appears to be worth taking the time to learn)! It is called Lightworks, take a look into it!
A tip that I give to everyone is to never just post images and small amounts of text, always invest a decent amount of time, especially when you are just starting out! Find your niche and carve it out. Be it that you're funny or you like to put a weird spin on crypto analysis, find something that is distinctly you, and have fun with it!
