will be available on the vlog channel check out that in the description below I guess let's go down the road and introduce yourself okay I'm talking ab & lounge a piece of gossip the Furies are king VRE mango you goes bugs question turkey okay so the first question I guess I have for you guys is how long have you guys been producing videos for YouTube kennice think you'll finish of course you will you're the best so I started in 2008 just as a hobby and then I think as a main like full-time job I've been doing this for around three years I saw in fact I 2009 may be a mighty initiative and then I switched over to Minecraft 2012 I've been doing that since along for the games I started 2010 not I think about that was a long time ago five years so I've been doing videos since then till now yeah simply out the only going to be instance like 2010 totally not professionally and I like trying to make it something that's like legit the past year and a few years outside unlike those guys I just started a little bit over an area my person up look was in 2008 but it it released their ticket seriously until now who doesn't love about four years starting with ms paint animations I've been doing since 2008 with my brother and you have me into videos consistently since then but gaining was about 2010 and I've been doing as a full time job since 2011 so editing software river too so also records and you can edit with it which is pretty cool but for actual games like it's on Steam and all that all minecraft I use Dxtory which also records the audio so record audio as well as video but also record like multiple audio levels so it's just so you can recall like your mic as well as you can record skype on different separate audio levels which is so convenient and awesome and the extra that's what I use for um I'm a fraps guy ha i use fraps brett i use fraps a lot to record my gameplays i use other softwares to like OBS record i guess like the like the windows and stuff like that the screen for audio i use audacity it's a free program you can use to record your voice and I guess I edit my videos in Adobe Premiere Pro that's that's about it I'm very similar to you Jordin I am I record my videos mostly with fraps this is just convenient it does it does the trick I record my audio with audacity because you can record it separately and then mix it in afterwards I work for my face cam with windows movie maker my special little trick it works so well it doesn't take up too much like process power on your computer and then I edit with adobe premiere but I think that you don't really need to like lock yourself into one because you can do the same thing to have any other software but it's just which ones more convenient for you and how you use it I personally use a program called mirillis action it's really easy to use as separate audio tracks like dxtory you can be like the face cam with the program so you can record your face cam in sync with your actual gameplay for doing facecam cog it's just so easy to use and then I use Sony Vegas edit for recording i also use Dxtory and OBS just because OBS is the only thing i can get to record my full resolution but then for editing i use the adobe creative cloud 2015 i used to i still use Sony Vegas off and on for certain projects and that's where I definitely recommend people start for gameplay i use OBS audio i also use OBS and for recording screen i used Camtasia and i also edit incantation i use perhaps to record most gameplay i use Sony Vegas to edit most videos and audacity definitely to record that audio but now I guess I'm 1080p or 4k they use a 4k resolution they use at 60 frames per second it just they feel like they're moving to real and it makes me want to puke what this comes down to 60 frames is far better than 30 it's double its so that it that flattery is 60 you're right okay well you did it's gotta be better and I also want to go back in the mic thing you're completely fine with a blue Yeti cuz like everyone likes to spend looks like stupid money on a microphone how much you spent how much is your microphone if I'll hundred dollars it makes it might be yours was known I probably spend my mic the Bluebird is but I do music so that's different to that doesn't even matter but mine was like four hundred dollars and then the mixers like 200 yeah that's ridiculous just for audio that's ridiculous and then I get it my own Yeti and how much time to take to figure out that mixer and get that perfect Oh far too long yeah exactly go with the USB microphone yeah I'd go with the USB microphone you're making minecraft videos man you're not I do music Tyson why believe months Coco I need this don't take us away to me it's all yeti it be happy with it I gotta go the most important point about this is that when you're starting off you don't need a super expensive my kefir to start off with like turkey set up at the end and logic ahead logitech headphone headache headset with a microphone built in it it's fine to start off I used a meteor mic which I think you can get forty dollars right now you could spend forty dollars right now at best buy yeah it sounds amazing Bert still uses a meteor mic and he does YouTube for living so I would say you're using the Yeti now and the cheapest Mike of them all the dr pepper Yeti will burn for so yeah the point is this that like we didn't start off buying out like all we have to do YouTube we have to buy like it's super expensive microphone I just want to point out you know the game is at rock band that game a friend of mine I'm a lot before I did you two had left um his rock band Mike yeah band might I did iris I was too that was my first Mike for about two years that's some commitment ed yeah it was it was pretty good and I never told them that i use it up see I could tell people right now and I use what do i use it's like in a audio if I told people that it was in at2020 or whatever oh my god it sounds amazing it does sound good i'm surprised it doesn't sound good no daughter it just sounds good they're all the same they're not all the same but pretty close EU level spices do it you're making a minecraft d they're pretty close my first my first microphone was the xbox headset controller with the Michael that's plug into a wired controller into my computer let's let's get down to Ike if I could do it and be here now you go out and do it that way let's give them a go so where's the 720 yeah so I i use a blue yeti audio-technica now the audio technica USB of course because the mixers are just way too hard to figure out how to use and but i want to start it out i used it's my plane like 2006 macbook microphone so you really don't need much to start out like i had a 2006 like the white macbook thing that's what I started out with the big thing is background noise like as long as we can hear you and we're not hearing like your dogs barking and your computer fans running and your parents yelling in the background your audio is gonna sound fine that's all we need is to hear you take out the trash give me five more minutes as long as that's not in there we like your audio is going to be fine alright I just I'd stirred up the monster I guess I guess ok will do ok we'll talk about the seven twenty years ago um yeah that was the question we all just deterred from it yeah do you guys have any things I don't see a difference between 27 28 natt its App Engine it's about of any of you guys do when you're watching YouTube videos if you see a difference because I don't do you need a minecraft video in 1080p 60 frames per second Kim I'm showing this to you now I'm might wait do I noticed a difference yeah you know of course ok against a micro video that and yes you can a hundred percent oh you're such a lot maybe like this Tyson has glasses so that probably explains I'm just kidding but you can't notice it's unnecessary entirely but it's like if you can t have the time well then why not it everybody girl that's like why your renders take like 50 I don't render Saxon 60 brains I upload in 1440p 60 frames per second so I'm just gonna kind of stare at you all wow that is it's worth it so fu I think is the I don't think you guys are not gonna watch a video if it's not in 1080p like if it's in 720 or 360 you guys but I think we'll still watching anyways like 36 yeah 360 is gross but there in 20 I think you guys were watching anyways and then if it's like 1080 if it's not 1080 then I'm not gonna watch it cuz now okay so I guess did anyone everyone hit on that that one hit on that is everyone excited about that okay good now I guess the next question would be what age range do you feel you could be to be a successful youtuber is there an age range is there a type of personality that has a better chance I don't think so i see i see really old people still be become successful in each I'm not seeing like really old but I mean like hey your grandma your grandpa he's like how old is he 70 there's so many other like it's all about your talent there's a lot of people that will use excuses like I'm to older I'm too young it's all about talent I think younger people like really on might have a little bit of a hard time because some people are jerks but like zexyzek is a perfect example he's now he's only 16 but he started yeah he's been successful since he was 13 years old I don't think there's an age doses of it no that's like that's a good example of coz i mean like usually people who are like younger and starting off are like starting new right but that doesn't mean that you know there's no chance of success or no chance of you know getting yourself out there so i definitely don't think age really plays a part I guess it would just be experienced I think with examples too is that there's like some channels like kittiesmama he was like this kid friendly like there's like kids like so Shaytards as well like it's like they are kids as well they can expand to reach pretty much every target those family is child-friendly it's like PG like everybody can watch it but everybody has a good time so it doesn't matter how young or how old I green power is is because Eddie I feel like anyone could do it and anyone can watch it I thought about that I think there's a genre for everything to and so it like aids shouldn't hold you back you can people will watch people not even just necessarily for that person they may just enjoy the gameplay so like you don't necessarily have to be a big loud personality and I mean you can just do something you like and I'm there's people out there they're gonna enjoy that as well yeah yeah to go off that I'd say just if you want to be a youtuber and you enjoy doing it just start as early as possible because literally it's getting so over saturate now so many new channels are coming start early as possible like I have a friend zombie words he used 13 years old when he had a hundred thousand subscribers so it's it's definitely possible for smaller channels to like blow up and 4p because if people enjoy their videos they don't care how old the person is they can't tell how the person is so it really doesn't matter like if you think you're too young for YouTube just just do it I think like zexyzek fing graphics they're like legendary examples of like young people making it I think it really depends on what community like if you are in the call of duty community and you're eight years old I don't think you're gonna make it because they have a term for you and it's squeaker and it just depends but like the Minecraft community I think anyone can make you can be like five years old and have a successful YouTube channel I mean I'm five years old so yeah perfect example um okay so do you guys have anything to elaborate with on that now I was just gonna say the biggest thing is just being like able to commit to making videos it doesn't matter really how old you are as long as you're doing it and a great alternative like if you don't want to get into all the technical aspects of video production and stuff is to just start live streaming see if people like watching you and then you can just upload like twitch highlights and things like that from there and then if people start watching you then maybe start converting over to videos but there's there's no reason to let your age get in the way as long as you're committed to making the videos amen now the next question is a barn burner for sure a lot of people that i run into think doing YouTube is an easy job it's cushy you sit down on your butt all day my god wake up at noon working your boxers now let's tell everyone how many hours a week do you put into your YouTube channel to make a week's worth of content and to keep that content popular dad I hope you're watching this my dad always said that when we found out like that we did youtube for a living especially because I exact started off he was working construction and he quit construction or he was laid off and then he didn't come back the next year and he started doing youtube for a living and my dad was really mad pin is like we we are everything so we're our own marketing team we're our own script writers yeah we're jack of trades that's a really good sane good good job so I would say like when I work on a skit especially since I'm writing the scripts and I usually rewrite them two or three times uh and I you know I go on twitter i go on instagram and i look at analytics i'd probably say at least move a long time sometimes 12 hours yeah yeah just shooting this kid could take forever and then when i make Kim edit the video that I magic takes a lot I don't know i would say i would say over 10 hours a day for sure ya like like this person just said jack of trades like whoever come without i did pretty good so yeah i'm like a writer a director I act as well with voice I edited and then I I travel the world I'd you imagine business it's just it people say YouTube is the easiest job it's the funnest job easiest well it takes a while but it's it's fun it's enjoyable it's a lot of work though it's just feeling like because like once in a while we do add deals and a lot of people are like oh you're just getting money for no reason to close an ad deal because I just recently got one it took me probably like 15 days of just constant communicating writing scripts sending it back to them them sending me revisions in the me writing it back it's it take it took like 15 days to just get an a deal khlo so yeah I don't think you guys understand how hard it is actually as well to be like to sometimes make some content like for example altered adventure takes like three weeks to make just one episode this is why it takes so long and like some role-playing take like a couple of days i think that would agree and like try to get like stead of like trying to get like five or six people in one record we've tried to record this series for like three months now and I'm finally gonna record it like next week hopefully but it's just so hard to get everybody in place and not to mention we've had to I hi I've had too high like editors now to help edit some videos and it's just yeah it's hard but it's fun I don't know about you guys but if i'm not out hanging with friends I'm literally just working home I I go home my only break is when I want to leave the house to hang out with someone one of my friends um but I do put a lot of work into YouTube every day I actually feel kind of strange not working like if I take a day off I feel really weird um but the other thing too is that I like I do something a little different like I do animations and that's that's just a whole other load of time and that that takes that can take weeks to do and that's constantly working planning scripting especially if you're getting other people the voice act in it which could you know it could take them a few days to get back to you so and it's funny as well because back home I actually have a few friends they used to make fun of me you know saying like oh yeah George we gate we got real jobs you know we got real jobs on we got to go home early you know to work and I'm just like bro I'm working every day but um YouTube is not an easy job it's not you really got to in like you really have to put your talents and efforts into it to you know make it you and you know make it work for you so I totally agree no it takes me five minutes to do video and it's up and it's done that's it no it takes it's a long time pretty much all I can say about some videos take longer than others some take 10 hours I'm take only an hour if you're lucky but then yourself to edit upload and make a thumbnail the whole process it's a full day's work every day you can make yourself have more work than necessary just because you want something done with a higher production quality than normal or if you slack is little less but yeah it's it's a long time yeah I usually spend anywhere from like 12 to 20 hours a day usually on my youtube channel and I even like going to this trip like going to any trips in general you have to pre-record a lot of videos use have to spend a ton more time doing that so even though it's something like kind of a vacation now like the the lead-up to the vacation was much more work than before it's usually easier to try to count how much time is spent not on YouTube than on youtube because most of it is spent on there and like it was mentioned that somebody does animations and it's a lot of extra work I actually do a lot of tech product reviews and so there's a lot of time spent working with companies and a lot of people have this perception that you know you get a bunch of free products for no reason but I spent an entire week non stop working on this product that half the time isn't really of use to me so yeah it looks cool to say hey this company sent me this but it's not like they just sent it to me because they know me or something that's they sent it to me so I can slave over it for two weeks and then put up a video and hope anybody likes it and it's the same thing with gaming videos and even when we take breaks to play video games for ourselves we're probably all still recording it and thinking of ways we can make videos of it thanks for watching guys thanks goodnight guys for me it actually doesn't take much time because unlike you guys my videos are really short like around 10 to 30 to 40 seconds but I do upload more than one a day a couple so it takes maybe an hour or three for each one but it but it's definitely a time consuming the thing is like when we're just sitting on YouTube it's technically our job but the thing is it's also my hobby so I don't look at it like I'm spending 15 hours on YouTube I'm looking at like this is the funnest thing I get to do and it's also my job so it doesn't feel like I'm actually working like a 40 hour week or a 60-hour week it feels like I'm in a blast doing it oh and also I get paid to do it another thing that goes into becoming a bigger youtuber is went you have to make all your own videos but to get to that bigger point you collaborated with a ton of people and now they require you to appear in their videos so not only do you have to do your videos but you have to make time for other people so you can keep networking because networking is very key to becoming successful on YouTube so if you work 40 hours on your channel you might be working 15 hours for this guy's channel that week it just it just depends but I guess the next question I have for you guys is about selling out so like that is like a huge thing like when you take an ad deals like back in the day I feel like it was more of a problem people thought of it as selling up but now more people are accepting of it and they think like okay it's helping them do what they love to do but what do you guys think about something else do you take brand deals or do you just past month well back in the day everyone used to be so happy when they found out that you're doing youtube for a full time and then the moment that you did an ad deal part of your job they'd get mad but nowadays like I see it it's much more like accepting because they understand like this is how we make our living and if you were just living off CPM sometimes you have to get five million views a month to live off it it takes a lot of use to live off just your CPM we just did a game of war deal on BAM lounge and I don't know I'm pretty sure everyone was accepting of it and yeah everyone enjoyed it as long as you can still make it like your own content and not like okay I just have to say one word as long as it's not abrasive to your content link if it's not like totally changing you get this cheesy grin on your face and you're pitching some type of horrible product that you don't get behind actually Zack your ad deal daddy I think you should answer this question almost first because you get so many different ad deals you do so many different stuff why don't you answer it first well I've i am at deal daddy i take a lot of AD deals but i always find a way to work them into creative ways where they don't really interrupt the content too much sometimes I do take ad deals that require a 30-second advertisement front of my videos but they allow me to be the spokesperson for that so it's at least not some random dude on my channel telling everyone to go by mcdonald it's it's me pitching the message so i think if as long as it's not abrasive and it's yourself and you don't take every deal like i'm not going to be advertising lady shavers anytime soon on my channel it i just take stuff i'm interested in this would handle run to you by Dollar Shave Club fishing no but the thing is um Harry shave club can you write yeah um what was I gonna say now um dizzy go first you go ok I turned down a lot of brand just because it changes too much of my content I it's like oh I want specifically this way from your video and i'll pay you this much and I always say no and because that's not my style or my content I used to when I was a smaller content like credit I'd be like oh yes anything because extra money it's cool fun right everyone's doing it humans do I think I practicing that's me and but yeah now as I like kind of expanded a grown into the community and doing my own thing and got onto my style and seeing what you guys like on my channel I don't want to change that because i'm going to upload also now we're gonna do like a an unboxing of an iOS game that you guys are not gonna watch because it's not me and you guys have subscribed to me to see like me like do there's certain stuff that I do so I'm not gonna change my content if you guys aren't going to enjoy just for money because I don't that guy I'd almost do any a deal that's like a 15 second daddy like you just put it in front of your normal content because then you don't monetize it and instead instead of having that 30-second not skippable ad they have a 15 second ad that features me in it exactly i think that's actually really good i think i understand general ETA like what's a 30-second head like i did a sharknado add that actually aired around YouTube and I was actually able to just act in that ad and instead of having a 30 skippin 30-second not skippable add of John talking about I don't know baby powder you get me talking about sharknado um yeah I think I think these guys explained it best like you used to be a stigma to it and now it's more accepting and like dizzy said you know you don't want to do it too much you don't want to change your content because you just don't want to you know you just want to change that brand and change the way the style that you make videos so I definitely have to agree with everything that's been said so far about it yeah agreed same thing yet there's a right way to do and there's a wrong way to do it I don't think that should ever be totally found upon but just yeah right waiting a wrong way yeah with like minecraft server sponsorships and stuff like if I'm gonna do one I make sure I go on the server I enjoy the server that my fans are gonna enjoy the server if I'm actually gonna do a series on that sir I don't want to just like promote some random server just for money if I don't actually enjoy that server you know I'm in a kind of unique position with my product reviews to where 90% of my content is somewhat sponsored in some way in that I'm either sent the product or every note once in a while I'm actually paid for it but there's always an agreement that it's all going to be still my organic content content that I started with and one hundred percent my opinion and what I think and that they're not telling me what to say they're just giving me what to talk about and I think it's still really important that no matter if you're given essentially everything you ever need for YouTube that you still stay true to like why you're doing it I used to have a really negative opinion about it as a viewer but because mostly as a viewer you just see it as okay it's just an ad you don't understand as to why people are doing it but trying to be patient understanding that this is how most people pay their bills and or you just a supporter of another company and you just want to help them out and just yeah just like kind of like what those guys said just don't do it too much there's a right and wrong way and as long as you balance it out then it's not technically selling out okay so since this is a video production panel I guess what i want to ask next is everyone starts out the same with crappy equipment just trying to make it in this YouTube industry but once you start making money what's the first thing you upgrade in what do you think's the first thing people should start to upgrade like should be there Mike should it be their pcs that what do you think's was important depending on what you make I think um I heard the same like everyone's like what I'm how to remember the same but I would upgrade your audio first because your audio is the most important like someone can stand a 360 p video but if your audios like it sound like crap and I was gonna want to watch it so I would upgrade your audio first no matter what you're doing yeah complete agree I am that's what I did I as soon as I started to make money i upgraded my audio i went from that crappy xbox headphone to a blue Yeti and then when a blue yeti 280 2020 which i've had for like over a year now well like i said before I used a rock band mic um that was probably the first thing I upgraded but after that actually the newest thing that I actually managed to upgrade was my computer because before I had the current computer had now i just used like a really like really bad computer i've been using it for a few years it was really slow you know editing was lagging stuff but audio is probably the best thing to go with and then just you know slowly I guess go through your equipment and just upgrade you know from I guess a regular camera to like a high quality camera and just so on and so forth and then to your PC etc yeah you got it Jordan you got it you know that one right on the head I think the same thing audience hugely important but for me the thing that I i upgraded first was my computer because I couldn't record minecraft without it lagging because back in like alpha java was even worse than I was now so it's just like the worst thing of all time but for gamers yeah i think it's if they're both very important but if everyone's got a mic i think like you can go to the dollar store to pick up a mic that's like not terrible you don't I mean I've maybe not maybe not but like I feel like you could possibly and then I don't know if you get like a laptop that records it that you're good to go but audio as well so I agree what they said yeah same with thumb say oh that's what same with them I'd say definitely audio is the most important to upgrade i actually got pretty lucky i used to record on a like a macbook so i was getting like six to eight frames per second maybe with minecraft when i was i was absolutely terrible but then my my dad actually like an old pc didn't really use more from my 2010 so you like let me that one after i started doing youtube and then with that i could get like 60 frames and i was perfectly fine with that i made the mistake of not upgrading audio first cuz already had decent audio and so i spent all of my savings on my canon t3i DSLR camera and so I had really really nice video and then I sounded like douche or more mobile and then I sounded like dope and so I definitely frankly it doesn't matter if you have a laptop webcam as long as you upgrade your audio first and as long as it's like they said as long as you can actually record if you're unable to even record your gameplay then you want to consider that person if you still sound bad as long you need to get a decent computer and frankly that's going to be cheaper than the expensive microphones and cameras that we have like you can get a decent laptop or desktop pre-built but for a lot cheaper than I spent on any individual piece of my hardware so okay um I guess I start with a one dollar microphone that I got off ebay it was a stick mic with a cord that had like this green and red inputs that went on like really old computers and I had to record all my video first because he actually had to hold the microphone because it was really thin and had no stand so i would record the video and then like do the audio so i definitely think audio is important because then i got a five dollar headset after that and then I got the Yeti eventually and audios important cuz that's like the like most people watch on their phone now anyways so 360p 480p that's not horrible if you have to have like kind of downgraded video compared to audio because audio is so important especially with everyone listening through headsets and everything too I guess another question I would have for you guys yeah it is um let me think before you do that as a when I moved to LA and I switched in between like computers to use I use this one computer that messed up my audio completely and all of the comments were just complain about the audio whereas the quality of the video wasn't that great either but all just the complaints with just the audio so it's like audio / video really I've seen it so the next question I have for you guys is collaboration how important do you think it is to work with other youtubers to bring people into your content and to appear in their content I mean there are people that can do it themselves and just are lucky but I feel like if you want to grow fast or faster I would work with your friends like say you have 50 subs he has 100 subs work with him try to like get his fan base and then just grow from that it would take a long time I think but it's better than just being by yourself because if you by yourself you don't work on other people's videos they're probably not going to wear and work with just your videos so i would say it's a huge thing to collaborate i think as long as you bounce it out as well because you also want to grow yourself too so people know you for you rather than oh this guy real cords with only fear razor and then oh if he doesn't recall the Pharaohs any more than I don't know who he is so if you balance it for example recording with a razor like monday and tuesdays and then I do like solo videos like Wednesday Thursday also builds yourself so people can get to know you and then so it's always good to do solo stuff a collaboration it's always so great like get your name out there so their audience can see who you are too and also trying like meet people who are sort of like your same subscriber size because you don't wanna be like a file subscribers trying to record with someone who's like a million subscribers because well like unless they're friends they probably wouldn't want to work work with you because it's not beneficial in both ways so yeah networking is always a good thing to do even like if you're not doing YouTube I mean if you wanted to do business stuff it's usually a great idea but I'm like what cuz he was saying and everyone else like collabing with other people and then kind of just not really becoming your own brand like just kind of just letting the other person take over the video and just essentially just be the recording in the background you want to you know make videos that are about you so you definitely don't want the youtuber who's a lot bigger than you I guess overshadowing your channel so it's definitely a good idea to just do your own thing when you can and to also network and just you know have a good time and enjoy we do right I agree harbison I think collaborating is like a hundred percent necessary like you can get lucky or you can do it yourself but it's extremely difficult but the thing like dizzy said to was that you gonna make sure that you don't have an audience that depends on another person your video in case you're not friends with them anymore you fall out or you just don't want to rapport with them or whatever you don't want to make like an audience that wants to watch you and them together always like you just don't want to depend on that so have a solo series or whatever and then work with other people to expand your audience and hope that they you know like you enough to stick around just watch you as well so yeah i agree with like pretty much everything they said but I also say I just like recording with friends is so much funner than just recording by herself so I just do it with friends you know yeah that's what I wanted to add was it's not mentioned a lot but even if you have friends that don't do YouTube but you do voice chat that's something that was huge for me when i first started when I was a lot younger was I had a bunch of friends who chatted on teamspeak and they were hilarious and so they couldn't be in all recordings but having them in a couple recordings just acting goofy as can be made for some pretty funny videos and it didn't matter that they weren't other youtubers they were just more people to make your videos more exciting and it's good to involve your friends too because then you get their feedback and they get to have fun with you as well yeah I agree that collaborating is a big part of growing a YouTube channel but because not only does it help you help each other grow but you also build friendships over it I know probably most people meet through recording and that's how most friendships start so it's good for growing and building relationships with people adding to what she was saying all my friends are from YouTube and I've recorded with them all the people that stood up in my wedding or from YouTube and I record with them met them on youtube so collaboration brains friendship and like Izzy said though you don't want to get caught in that trap where it's like hey that's the guy skydoesminecraft records with because if you become that guy you don't have your own identity like you lose yourself kind of so it's nice to have a nice mix of collab and solo content but I guess now we're gonna open the floor to you guys if you have any questions comments concerns line up at that microphone and will answer any of your questions that you guys have there's a hot mic out videos right ideally any questions at all you can about video production anything on some good we got a about 20 million when we showed it up girl also okay this is for dizzy what happened after Big Mac went ballistic when he tried the Charlie Charlie challenge I don't think we've actually kind of resolved that so I'm just gonna go over here so hey Tyson Noel do you I feel like Tyson could answer that one better than I can cuz I just got right on the pool he's the one with the anger I threw him in the pool and it was fantastic check out bad lounge room in the pool again I throw him in the pool Mike three times now at Zach's wedding room in the pool as well and it was fantastic that pool was cold it was great y la one was imagine gizzy look dizzy fallen in the pool three times Oh Mel ting not the Queen Thank awesome this is mainly for Kip what equipment do you use when you make your music videos I use like my microphone an audio things so that recently I started using this cuz Steve MLG ha showed me actually how do you smile equipment that I've had for a long time but I use my guitar obviously my microphone and then a big part of the thing is though is like learning how to eq your audio afterwards which is very complicated and it takes a while but as long as you have your microphone you could just have a microphone and your voice or your tie i did that for the longest time but that's I don't try yeah that's a good question ok so my first question is for Kim what is with the lay around your head I lost my headband the other night in the hotel I think the cleaning lady took it actually Zach cuz I left now I cannot steal your headband it was sweaty she wanted it she was beautiful it had many fabulous maybe I was twisted and it could have been experi what could have you lost it he lost it and he likes to blame and this is now there he had it at night and it was missing in the morning so either she broke in in the middle of the night what are you I bet she did that's what I'm going with me to my head man she wanted it she saw me she just sneaking around while you snore like oh I want is that's the only one that snores in our room let's be real okay my second question is do any of you watch Doctor Who I wished up to the ape series with pizza hut called pedalled oh the coke caught whatever is left yeah I did I don't like him but I loved David said in Matt Smith Amy Pond I was wondering if you would like to be my companion I'm sort of trying to put them I just a tad closer to your mouth kid would you like to be my companion because I am trying to find somebody to roam the universe with I'm currently taking with Kipp Gibbs my companion Gibby Gibby we can all explore the universe together guys no no just anxious Gibby thank you how do you wait is this thing on you got it man sorry okay how you choose the youtubers for your for your role play videos gizzy chasm sorry oh oh yeah I see like what could be like fun like I'd like to see what the scenario i could be a fun and like what you jus could be funny in that situation and so that i just kind of like adapt with that and then I also anchored like friends like I've had a razor now five notes buddies one I guess I'm not your friend I guess I'm not here friend well you weren't I don't know that next one spoilers yeah thank you um I have two questions for dizzy and kid what would be the best equipment to use but the cheapest for what specifically a gaming like I for recording everything like audio and oh yeah I mean I think perhaps is free fraps is not free it's not you get that logo if you use for a change of three that's what Tyson uses you can I know dxtory is only like thirty dollars or forty dollars which is I'm better than these guys at this I'm a low-budget game as you are he's got last the wrong person here we go I'm gonna say I used on this clip-on microphone and i got it for fifteen dollars at best buy it was a samsung and it sounded amazing don't even knew I used this not to mention me and kid on even from America so with like asking us also hey kids you do some April this up all right all right I would also use Camtasia because you can use the recording software and you can use the editing software and the editing software is so simple it's even easier than the new movie maker like I remember the old movie maker was awesome the new one it's hard I'm confused yeah but no I would use chem teacher because you can get it for free and then I would also use the camtasia recorder and then for like a microphone any cheap microphone would work for the start you can at best buy for like fifteen twenty dollars i agree with that and the second question is on a scale to 1 to 10 how real is Gibby how real is 0000 real is giving how really how he was giving this is how real Gibby is 0 kb is real so it's a 10 never let go ok let it go it's all at six yeah it's about it for 4.5 so i want to record skits but i only have a webcam so what should i do i record skits and i would say that would work i started off like just like oh he doesn't have a webcam yeah hi I heard it right um boogie is a really good example of this boogies I he's got 1.8 million subs and he only records in his bedroom on his webcam there's ways to create characters just by doing it with your webcam I think you could still become very successful when I started I just used my webcam as well and i just sat in front and that created like characters like one hard and I record like you can definitely do it you can definitely just um what kind of we're gonna skits are you into um like funny skits in my friend Caleb over there oh you guys can definitely do some cool things especially since you had someone yeah we did this a show yeah and we literally just did confessions like skidded out confessions in front of the webcam and that grew us really big actually and that was back in two thousand eight and you can definitely do it we had like a couple thousand subs and a thousand people watching / video and it was really fun and I think you can definitely do it yeah my second question is for Kip where's your bro where's my bro yeah my bros not here and he should be I mean that's our Lady Rose but like car bro brawl it's not here and he's working it's unfortunate he should be here dude it's unfortunate yeah that's obvious that's awesome yes I'm so glad you know that so most of you all have custom builds pc's I was wondering how much ram do use how much dedicated was dedicated well dedicated wham sweet speed by is it wham Wham it's actually random yeah I know dedicate a wham I have 32 gigabytes a dedicated waiting for my city of it hate what is what is that I guess I have 16 it's pretty good yeah at 32 32 yeah f32 you don't need 32 though your computers can't even use 32 but we have it just cuz yeah I'm 32 32 16 okay thank God I'm not the only home 16 I was like wow what kind of suck but eight is still good for my graphic yeah it's good but because we got custom pcs virtuous because let's cast away cuz he let him walk away you look at him Nick easy 10 year it's okay thank you hypixel or the hive I would play high pixel what is that the one where it's something you get to hide as a block as well or is that oh the zombie one yeah they have the walking dead one and that's fun so I'd see the hypixel the hypixel the hypixel I say hi hi pick ok one above high pixel hashtag high pixel that like both I I used to go on hypixel a lot so I'd have to say I pixel for me hypixel yeah hypixel that's the only one I know so high pixel Qi my pixel questions what's the stolen kid uh skit or a video not true this which one was all stolen what the where I stole that kid yes what do you think yeah that kids in my basement still hopefully he's still alive I fed him I've been here for what five days ago oh he might not be alive anymore and the second one is will you guys be playing video games over there later on oh for sure that's what will own you only if we win though let us win did you have trouble recording and doing YouTube when you were in school that's a yes I went to university whilst i was doing university and that was hard see for you you about to do that cuz you're about to go to full film school with a mum okay so yeah so it was a real struggle to balance out but you just gotta find yourself a schedule to like okay so I got an edge because education is first day of school everybody stay in school education is first number one let me hear don't listen agency go thanks don't listen to gizzy don't have to care I'd stay in my cooler when I was in school making videos because like everyone was super excited in my school that I actually had a viewership I was making minecraft attendants go see I wasn't making Mike revenues i was making skits and everyone was like oh I want to be in him I want to be a mounds like no I'm so powerful but no I would say for sure it's like it's hard but like I think you have a lot more options of people to use cuz like right now like we only have like people that live across the Caesar maybe our neighbors our friends that live in LA but like when I was in school I had a ton of people that wanted to be in the videos and it was much easier it's funny actually because this is the first time my online friends I'm a university friend over there it was coincidentally here as well so hi Tom I wish I had to talk hi mom hi Tom he works on a cruise and he's just here finally excited let it go oh yeah when I started you in a university and a little bit into high school that's when i was doing YouTube and I kind of I should have focused more on school to get like the you know though the grades right but no I would definitely say it was difficult but it was a bit of a struggle to do like balance it out but if you do it you totally should you know like school is more important you want to do that above YouTube YouTube should be a hobby and only a hobby if it turns into something else that's great too but again like I just want to back up even if it is your job yeah exactly like you want to it's a nice little backup but again like you should focus on school and stuff for you know now so we want to get through all the questions cuz we have say you had minutes left with don't say just yesterday it is tough to yeah we're gonna speed through these next we will only have like around ten minutes so let's do the next question they're kicking us out essentially I have two questions first one if I ever get a channel what um we're cool what editing and recording stuff should I get as it should identify down there you guys can answer this question oh well if you want a free recording software OBS is a good free one I use morose action it's like 30 bucks so you'd do that if you have 30 bucks to spend if you just want to start out even windows movie maker just to make a basic video like people laugh at it but I mean it works and it start out with whatever you have access to and like you said OBS is free and it's great and just start with what you have access to and start making videos and see what happens it did spending too much time working and picking out your software and hardware means you're not going to get started soon enough I actually recommend Camtasia because it's a it's also an editing software but also a screen recorder so you can do both with just condition and the second one like what audio or what audio stuff should i get for a beginning anyway like a good Mike you know that it's not a bad I mean walk then whatever your budget don't get Mike any Mike if you want to start leasing a little bit of a budget I would say a meteor mic it's really good and I mean / gasm was just using it and I used to feel almost my whole career so far so I would definitely use that thank you thank you what is the weirdest fanfiction you have ever read about yourselves I don't want to do what you feel Jan they are weird there's so many like if you want like fanfic Dark Matters and like that there's like some seriously gross ones that's Steve oh we've read your wattpad stories I've read all of them you sick people they're hilarious don't ever stop but stop though but don't stop that was good does anybody here know fantabulous anyone know about him he's a singer musician yeah phew you anyways um he's another youtuber and me and him a really good friends and for some reason people have just made a bunch of fanfic of us right and I've read some and my friends know about it now back home and they don't leave me alone about it so as a few Gibby's other is it really there's a few good night I see some weird BAM lounge one ones like with all four of us like me bird Zack and Steve it's real gross I wrote it it's real gross we've seen though we probably haven't read them all but we so I read every single one let's go with the next but thank you very much okay real quickly uh you I don't remember your name I'm sorry don't feel the eraser don't feel bad um I use a guitar hero Mike and the PlayStation Eye camera for webcam whoa uh second kid that kid wait yes Kip Kip and uh you see isn't Oh dizzy Kevin grazier yeah me Big Mac Tyson Tyson fake yes how did it feel to drink crap what how do you when you and Garrett and drink crap I'll remember oh the smoothie it was disgusting man I legitimate was like on the verge of every how do I poop or something it was very gross and I couldn't none of us finished it get him actually cute I did actually puke I believe you there was actual vomit what a little girl I mean I only drink a little bit that I ate the sardine though and my jason dyke a peanut butter smoothie but like for some reason my brain couldn't wrap around it it wasn't a peanut butter smoothie it was discussing and I puke Garrett had that probably the easiest 10 like cereal it was just a serial have a bowl of cereal please fish oh that's probably a challenge I'll never do on my channel oh you'll do just looks like disgusting you'll see down to it no thank you Thanks hi bro this for all of you um a scale from 1-10 how difficult is it to record videos I think it just becomes fun i don't think it's difficult I would say some are difficult because they take setting up but how difficult videos are to make sometimes I got I stress out if I miss a day it was like I need I need to upload a video like I need to but yeah it's just fun it's like a just really stressful like when we have like a time crunch like on BAM lunch I you usually use other youtubers in the videos and they have stuff to do like dizzy and it's like sometimes you get stressful but usually we just like let's calm down and let's just do it yep so honest go from one and ten let's get one to ten give it a sometimes it's a seven yeah seven seven yeah it tastes s all it sometimes a 10 if it's a really hard video but 75 ok hi Bert dr. pepper you guys were talking about a fellow named Burke assam would you say that y'all are pretty good friends with no I hate him no I

I did runescape machine it was kind of like sky and at BET and that ad venom and caveman we all came from runescape so it's all runescape skins um okay and but I don't know why with the dreadlocks because like I just has fathered like the rune scape scape I don't know why I was on the runescape skin in the first place I'll be honest it was just so it's for my runescape skin that's it ok we have last two questions that's too well this is no question for all of you um what is your favorite DC sidekick and your favorite Marvel here superhero spider-man Iron Man no he's as I said Marvel superhero acct my sidekick I don't know like me Robin I'd say Robin sure from Marvel I'd have to say for like Thor Chris outside cake oh I'll get right back to that I'm not a hundred sure i would say

available on the vlog channel check out that in the description below I guess let's go down the road and introduce yourself okay I'm talking ab & lounge a piece of gossip the Furies are king VRE mango you goes bugs question turkey okay so the first question I guess I have for you guys is how long have you guys been producing videos for YouTube kennice think you'll finish of course you will you're the best so I started in 2008 just as a hobby and then I think as a main like full-time job I've been doing this for around three years I saw in fact I 2009 may be a mighty initiative and then I switched over to Minecraft 2012 I've been doing that since along for the games I started 2010 not I think about that was a long time ago five years so I've been doing videos since then till now yeah simply out the only going to be instance like 2010 totally not professionally and I like trying to make it something that's like legit the past year and a few years outside unlike those guys I just started a little bit over an area my person up look was in 2008 but it it released their ticket seriously until now who doesn't love about four years starting with ms paint animations I've been doing since 2008 with my brother and you have me into videos consistently since then but gaining was about 2010 and I've been doing as a full time job since 2011 so editing software river too so also records and you can edit with it which is pretty cool but for actual games like it's on Steam and all that all minecraft I use Dxtory which also records the audio so record audio as well as video but also record like multiple audio levels so it's just so you can recall like your mic as well as you can record skype on different separate audio levels which is so convenient and awesome and the extra that's what I use for um I'm a fraps guy ha i use fraps brett i use fraps a lot to record my gameplays i use other softwares to like OBS record i guess like the like the windows and stuff like that the screen for audio i use audacity it's a free program you can use to record your voice and I guess I edit my videos in Adobe Premiere Pro that's that's about it I'm very similar to you Jordin I am I record my videos mostly with fraps this is just convenient it does it does the trick I record my audio with audacity because you can record it separately and then mix it in afterwards I work for my face cam with windows movie maker my special little trick it works so well it doesn't take up too much like process power on your computer and then I edit with adobe premiere but I think that you don't really need to like lock yourself into one because you can do the same thing to have any other software but it's just which ones more convenient for you and how you use it I personally use a program called mirillis action it's really easy to use as separate audio tracks like dxtory you can be like the face cam with the program so you can record your face cam in sync with your actual gameplay for doing facecam cog it's just so easy to use and then I use Sony Vegas edit for recording i also use Dxtory and OBS just because OBS is the only thing i can get to record my full resolution but then for editing i use the adobe creative cloud 2015 i used to i still use Sony Vegas off and on for certain projects and that's where I definitely recommend people start for gameplay i use OBS audio i also use OBS and for recording screen i used Camtasia and i also edit incantation i use perhaps to record most gameplay i use Sony Vegas to edit most videos and audacity definitely to record that audio but now I guess I'm 1080p or 4k they use a 4k resolution they use at 60 frames per second it just they feel like they're moving to real and it makes me want to puke what this comes down to 60 frames is far better than 30 it's double its so that it that flattery is 60 you're right okay well you did it's gotta be better and I also want to go back in the mic thing you're completely fine with a blue Yeti cuz like everyone likes to spend looks like stupid money on a microphone how much you spent how much is your microphone if I'll hundred dollars it makes it might be yours was known I probably spend my mic the Bluebird is but I do music so that's different to that doesn't even matter but mine was like four hundred dollars and then the mixers like 200 yeah that's ridiculous just for audio that's ridiculous and then I get it my own Yeti and how much time to take to figure out that mixer and get that perfect Oh far too long yeah exactly go with the USB microphone yeah I'd go with the USB microphone you're making minecraft videos man you're not I do music Tyson why believe months Coco I need this don't take us away to me it's all yeti it be happy with it I gotta go the most important point about this is that when you're starting off you don't need a super expensive my kefir to start off with like turkey set up at the end and logic ahead logitech headphone headache headset with a microphone built in it it's fine to start off I used a meteor mic which I think you can get forty dollars right now you could spend forty dollars right now at best buy yeah it sounds amazing Bert still uses a meteor mic and he does YouTube for living so I would say you're using the Yeti now and the cheapest Mike of them all the dr pepper Yeti will burn for so yeah the point is this that like we didn't start off buying out like all we have to do YouTube we have to buy like it's super expensive microphone I just want to point out you know the game is at rock band that game a friend of mine I'm a lot before I did you two had left um his rock band Mike yeah band might I did iris I was too that was my first Mike for about two years that's some commitment ed yeah it was it was pretty good and I never told them that i use it up see I could tell people right now and I use what do i use it's like in a audio if I told people that it was in at2020 or whatever oh my god it sounds amazing it does sound good i'm surprised it doesn't sound good no daughter it just sounds good they're all the same they're not all the same but pretty close EU level spices do it you're making a minecraft d they're pretty close my first my first microphone was the xbox headset controller with the Michael that's plug into a wired controller into my computer let's let's get down to Ike if I could do it and be here now you go out and do it that way let's give them a go so where's the 720 yeah so I i use a blue yeti audio-technica now the audio technica USB of course because the mixers are just way too hard to figure out how to use and but i want to start it out i used it's my plane like 2006 macbook microphone so you really don't need much to start out like i had a 2006 like the white macbook thing that's what I started out with the big thing is background noise like as long as we can hear you and we're not hearing like your dogs barking and your computer fans running and your parents yelling in the background your audio is gonna sound fine that's all we need is to hear you take out the trash give me five more minutes as long as that's not in there we like your audio is going to be fine alright I just I'd stirred up the monster I guess I guess ok will do ok we'll talk about the seven twenty years ago um yeah that was the question we all just deterred from it yeah do you guys have any things I don't see a difference between 27 28 natt its App Engine it's about of any of you guys do when you're watching YouTube videos if you see a difference because I don't do you need a minecraft video in 1080p 60 frames per second Kim I'm showing this to you now I'm might wait do I noticed a difference yeah you know of course ok against a micro video that and yes you can a hundred percent oh you're such a lot maybe like this Tyson has glasses so that probably explains I'm just kidding but you can't notice it's unnecessary entirely but it's like if you can t have the time well then why not it everybody girl that's like why your renders take like 50 I don't render Saxon 60 brains I upload in 1440p 60 frames per second so I'm just gonna kind of stare at you all wow that is it's worth it so fu I think is the I don't think you guys are not gonna watch a video if it's not in 1080p like if it's in 720 or 360 you guys but I think we'll still watching anyways like 36 yeah 360 is gross but there in 20 I think you guys were watching anyways and then if it's like 1080 if it's not 1080 then I'm not gonna watch it cuz now okay so I guess did anyone everyone hit on that that one hit on that is everyone excited about that okay good now I guess the next question would be what age range do you feel you could be to be a successful youtuber is there an age range is there a type of personality that has a better chance I don't think so i see i see really old people still be become successful in each I'm not seeing like really old but I mean like hey your grandma your grandpa he's like how old is he 70 there's so many other like it's all about your talent there's a lot of people that will use excuses like I'm to older I'm too young it's all about talent I think younger people like really on might have a little bit of a hard time because some people are jerks but like zexyzek is a perfect example he's now he's only 16 but he started yeah he's been successful since he was 13 years old I don't think there's an age doses of it no that's like that's a good example of coz i mean like usually people who are like younger and starting off are like starting new right but that doesn't mean that you know there's no chance of success or no chance of you know getting yourself out there so i definitely don't think age really plays a part I guess it would just be experienced I think with examples too is that there's like some channels like kittiesmama he was like this kid friendly like there's like kids like so Shaytards as well like it's like they are kids as well they can expand to reach pretty much every target those family is child-friendly it's like PG like everybody can watch it but everybody has a good time so it doesn't matter how young or how old I green power is is because Eddie I feel like anyone could do it and anyone can watch it I thought about that I think there's a genre for everything to and so it like aids shouldn't hold you back you can people will watch people not even just necessarily for that person they may just enjoy the gameplay so like you don't necessarily have to be a big loud personality and I mean you can just do something you like and I'm there's people out there they're gonna enjoy that as well yeah yeah to go off that I'd say just if you want to be a youtuber and you enjoy doing it just start as early as possible because literally it's getting so over saturate now so many new channels are coming start early as possible like I have a friend zombie words he used 13 years old when he had a hundred thousand subscribers so it's it's definitely possible for smaller channels to like blow up and 4p because if people enjoy their videos they don't care how old the person is they can't tell how the person is so it really doesn't matter like if you think you're too young for YouTube just just do it I think like zexyzek fing graphics they're like legendary examples of like young people making it I think it really depends on what community like if you are in the call of duty community and you're eight years old I don't think you're gonna make it because they have a term for you and it's squeaker and it just depends but like the Minecraft community I think anyone can make you can be like five years old and have a successful YouTube channel I mean I'm five years old so yeah perfect example um okay so do you guys have anything to elaborate with on that now I was just gonna say the biggest thing is just being like able to commit to making videos it doesn't matter really how old you are as long as you're doing it and a great alternative like if you don't want to get into all the technical aspects of video production and stuff is to just start live streaming see if people like watching you and then you can just upload like twitch highlights and things like that from there and then if people start watching you then maybe start converting over to videos but there's there's no reason to let your age get in the way as long as you're committed to making the videos amen now the next question is a barn burner for sure a lot of people that i run into think doing YouTube is an easy job it's cushy you sit down on your butt all day my god wake up at noon working your boxers now let's tell everyone how many hours a week do you put into your YouTube channel to make a week's worth of content and to keep that content popular dad I hope you're watching this my dad always said that when we found out like that we did youtube for a living especially because I exact started off he was working construction and he quit construction or he was laid off and then he didn't come back the next year and he started doing youtube for a living and my dad was really mad pin is like we we are everything so we're our own marketing team we're our own script writers yeah we're jack of trades that's a really good sane good good job so I would say like when I work on a skit especially since I'm writing the scripts and I usually rewrite them two or three times uh and I you know I go on twitter i go on instagram and i look at analytics i'd probably say at least move a long time sometimes 12 hours yeah yeah just shooting this kid could take forever and then when i make Kim edit the video that I magic takes a lot I don't know i would say i would say over 10 hours a day for sure ya like like this person just said jack of trades like whoever come without i did pretty good so yeah i'm like a writer a director I act as well with voice I edited and then I I travel the world I'd you imagine business it's just it people say YouTube is the easiest job it's the funnest job easiest well it takes a while but it's it's fun it's enjoyable it's a lot of work though it's just feeling like because like once in a while we do add deals and a lot of people are like oh you're just getting money for no reason to close an ad deal because I just recently got one it took me probably like 15 days of just constant communicating writing scripts sending it back to them them sending me revisions in the me writing it back it's it take it took like 15 days to just get an a deal khlo so yeah I don't think you guys understand how hard it is actually as well to be like to sometimes make some content like for example altered adventure takes like three weeks to make just one episode this is why it takes so long and like some role-playing take like a couple of days i think that would agree and like try to get like stead of like trying to get like five or six people in one record we've tried to record this series for like three months now and I'm finally gonna record it like next week hopefully but it's just so hard to get everybody in place and not to mention we've had to I hi I've had too high like editors now to help edit some videos and it's just yeah it's hard but it's fun I don't know about you guys but if i'm not out hanging with friends I'm literally just working home I I go home my only break is when I want to leave the house to hang out with someone one of my friends um but I do put a lot of work into YouTube every day I actually feel kind of strange not working like if I take a day off I feel really weird um but the other thing too is that I like I do something a little different like I do animations and that's that's just a whole other load of time and that that takes that can take weeks to do and that's constantly working planning scripting especially if you're getting other people the voice act in it which could you know it could take them a few days to get back to you so and it's funny as well because back home I actually have a few friends they used to make fun of me you know saying like oh yeah George we gate we got real jobs you know we got real jobs on we got to go home early you know to work and I'm just like bro I'm working every day but um YouTube is not an easy job it's not you really got to in like you really have to put your talents and efforts into it to you know make it you and you know make it work for you so I totally agree no it takes me five minutes to do video and it's up and it's done that's it no it takes it's a long time pretty much all I can say about some videos take longer than others some take 10 hours I'm take only an hour if you're lucky but then yourself to edit upload and make a thumbnail the whole process it's a full day's work every day you can make yourself have more work than necessary just because you want something done with a higher production quality than normal or if you slack is little less but yeah it's it's a long time yeah I usually spend anywhere from like 12 to 20 hours a day usually on my youtube channel and I even like going to this trip like going to any trips in general you have to pre-record a lot of videos use have to spend a ton more time doing that so even though it's something like kind of a vacation now like the the lead-up to the vacation was much more work than before it's usually easier to try to count how much time is spent not on YouTube than on youtube because most of it is spent on there and like it was mentioned that somebody does animations and it's a lot of extra work I actually do a lot of tech product reviews and so there's a lot of time spent working with companies and a lot of people have this perception that you know you get a bunch of free products for no reason but I spent an entire week non stop working on this product that half the time isn't really of use to me so yeah it looks cool to say hey this company sent me this but it's not like they just sent it to me because they know me or something that's they sent it to me so I can slave over it for two weeks and then put up a video and hope anybody likes it and it's the same thing with gaming videos and even when we take breaks to play video games for ourselves we're probably all still recording it and thinking of ways we can make videos of it thanks for watching guys thanks goodnight guys for me it actually doesn't take much time because unlike you guys my videos are really short like around 10 to 30 to 40 seconds but I do upload more than one a day a couple so it takes maybe an hour or three for each one but it but it's definitely a time consuming the thing is like when we're just sitting on YouTube it's technically our job but the thing is it's also my hobby so I don't look at it like I'm spending 15 hours on YouTube I'm looking at like this is the funnest thing I get to do and it's also my job so it doesn't feel like I'm actually working like a 40 hour week or a 60-hour week it feels like I'm in a blast doing it oh and also I get paid to do it another thing that goes into becoming a bigger youtuber is went you have to make all your own videos but to get to that bigger point you collaborated with a ton of people and now they require you to appear in their videos so not only do you have to do your videos but you have to make time for other people so you can keep networking because networking is very key to becoming successful on YouTube so if you work 40 hours on your channel you might be working 15 hours for this guy's channel that week it just it just depends but I guess the next question I have for you guys is about selling out so like that is like a huge thing like when you take an ad deals like back in the day I feel like it was more of a problem people thought of it as selling up but now more people are accepting of it and they think like okay it's helping them do what they love to do but what do you guys think about something else do you take brand deals or do you just past month well back in the day everyone used to be so happy when they found out that you're doing youtube for a full time and then the moment that you did an ad deal part of your job they'd get mad but nowadays like I see it it's much more like accepting because they understand like this is how we make our living and if you were just living off CPM sometimes you have to get five million views a month to live off it it takes a lot of use to live off just your CPM we just did a game of war deal on BAM lounge and I don't know I'm pretty sure everyone was accepting of it and yeah everyone enjoyed it as long as you can still make it like your own content and not like okay I just have to say one word as long as it's not abrasive to your content link if it's not like totally changing you get this cheesy grin on your face and you're pitching some type of horrible product that you don't get behind actually Zack your ad deal daddy I think you should answer this question almost first because you get so many different ad deals you do so many different stuff why don't you answer it first well I've i am at deal daddy i take a lot of AD deals but i always find a way to work them into creative ways where they don't really interrupt the content too much sometimes I do take ad deals that require a 30-second advertisement front of my videos but they allow me to be the spokesperson for that so it's at least not some random dude on my channel telling everyone to go by mcdonald it's it's me pitching the message so i think if as long as it's not abrasive and it's yourself and you don't take every deal like i'm not going to be advertising lady shavers anytime soon on my channel it i just take stuff i'm interested in this would handle run to you by Dollar Shave Club fishing no but the thing is um Harry shave club can you write yeah um what was I gonna say now um dizzy go first you go ok I turned down a lot of brand just because it changes too much of my content I it's like oh I want specifically this way from your video and i'll pay you this much and I always say no and because that's not my style or my content I used to when I was a smaller content like credit I'd be like oh yes anything because extra money it's cool fun right everyone's doing it humans do I think I practicing that's me and but yeah now as I like kind of expanded a grown into the community and doing my own thing and got onto my style and seeing what you guys like on my channel I don't want to change that because i'm going to upload also now we're gonna do like a an unboxing of an iOS game that you guys are not gonna watch because it's not me and you guys have subscribed to me to see like me like do there's certain stuff that I do so I'm not gonna change my content if you guys aren't going to enjoy just for money because I don't that guy I'd almost do any a deal that's like a 15 second daddy like you just put it in front of your normal content because then you don't monetize it and instead instead of having that 30-second not skippable ad they have a 15 second ad that features me in it exactly i think that's actually really good i think i understand general ETA like what's a 30-second head like i did a sharknado add that actually aired around YouTube and I was actually able to just act in that ad and instead of having a 30 skippin 30-second not skippable add of John talking about I don't know baby powder you get me talking about sharknado um yeah I think I think these guys explained it best like you used to be a stigma to it and now it's more accepting and like dizzy said you know you don't want to do it too much you don't want to change your content because you just don't want to you know you just want to change that brand and change the way the style that you make videos so I definitely have to agree with everything that's been said so far about it yeah agreed same thing yet there's a right way to do and there's a wrong way to do it I don't think that should ever be totally found upon but just yeah right waiting a wrong way yeah with like minecraft server sponsorships and stuff like if I'm gonna do one I make sure I go on the server I enjoy the server that my fans are gonna enjoy the server if I'm actually gonna do a series on that sir I don't want to just like promote some random server just for money if I don't actually enjoy that server you know I'm in a kind of unique position with my product reviews to where 90% of my content is somewhat sponsored in some way in that I'm either sent the product or every note once in a while I'm actually paid for it but there's always an agreement that it's all going to be still my organic content content that I started with and one hundred percent my opinion and what I think and that they're not telling me what to say they're just giving me what to talk about and I think it's still really important that no matter if you're given essentially everything you ever need for YouTube that you still stay true to like why you're doing it I used to have a really negative opinion about it as a viewer but because mostly as a viewer you just see it as okay it's just an ad you don't understand as to why people are doing it but trying to be patient understanding that this is how most people pay their bills and or you just a supporter of another company and you just want to help them out and just yeah just like kind of like what those guys said just don't do it too much there's a right and wrong way and as long as you balance it out then it's not technically selling out okay so since this is a video production panel I guess what i want to ask next is everyone starts out the same with crappy equipment just trying to make it in this YouTube industry but once you start making money what's the first thing you upgrade in what do you think's the first thing people should start to upgrade like should be there Mike should it be their pcs that what do you think's was important depending on what you make I think um I heard the same like everyone's like what I'm how to remember the same but I would upgrade your audio first because your audio is the most important like someone can stand a 360 p video but if your audios like it sound like crap and I was gonna want to watch it so I would upgrade your audio first no matter what you're doing yeah complete agree I am that's what I did I as soon as I started to make money i upgraded my audio i went from that crappy xbox headphone to a blue Yeti and then when a blue yeti 280 2020 which i've had for like over a year now well like i said before I used a rock band mic um that was probably the first thing I upgraded but after that actually the newest thing that I actually managed to upgrade was my computer because before I had the current computer had now i just used like a really like really bad computer i've been using it for a few years it was really slow you know editing was lagging stuff but audio is probably the best thing to go with and then just you know slowly I guess go through your equipment and just upgrade you know from I guess a regular camera to like a high quality camera and just so on and so forth and then to your PC etc yeah you got it Jordan you got it you know that one right on the head I think the same thing audience hugely important but for me the thing that I i upgraded first was my computer because I couldn't record minecraft without it lagging because back in like alpha java was even worse than I was now so it's just like the worst thing of all time but for gamers yeah i think it's if they're both very important but if everyone's got a mic i think like you can go to the dollar store to pick up a mic that's like not terrible you don't I mean I've maybe not maybe not but like I feel like you could possibly and then I don't know if you get like a laptop that records it that you're good to go but audio as well so I agree what they said yeah same with thumb say oh that's what same with them I'd say definitely audio is the most important to upgrade i actually got pretty lucky i used to record on a like a macbook so i was getting like six to eight frames per second maybe with minecraft when i was i was absolutely terrible but then my my dad actually like an old pc didn't really use more from my 2010 so you like let me that one after i started doing youtube and then with that i could get like 60 frames and i was perfectly fine with that i made the mistake of not upgrading audio first cuz already had decent audio and so i spent all of my savings on my canon t3i DSLR camera and so I had really really nice video and then I sounded like douche or more mobile and then I sounded like dope and so I definitely frankly it doesn't matter if you have a laptop webcam as long as you upgrade your audio first and as long as it's like they said as long as you can actually record if you're unable to even record your gameplay then you want to consider that person if you still sound bad as long you need to get a decent computer and frankly that's going to be cheaper than the expensive microphones and cameras that we have like you can get a decent laptop or desktop pre-built but for a lot cheaper than I spent on any individual piece of my hardware so okay um I guess I start with a one dollar microphone that I got off ebay it was a stick mic with a cord that had like this green and red inputs that went on like really old computers and I had to record all my video first because he actually had to hold the microphone because it was really thin and had no stand so i would record the video and then like do the audio so i definitely think audio is important because then i got a five dollar headset after that and then I got the Yeti eventually and audios important cuz that's like the like most people watch on their phone now anyways so 360p 480p that's not horrible if you have to have like kind of downgraded video compared to audio because audio is so important especially with everyone listening through headsets and everything too I guess another question I would have for you guys yeah it is um let me think before you do that as a when I moved to LA and I switched in between like computers to use I use this one computer that messed up my audio completely and all of the comments were just complain about the audio whereas the quality of the video wasn't that great either but all just the complaints with just the audio so it's like audio / video really I've seen it so the next question I have for you guys is collaboration how important do you think it is to work with other youtubers to bring people into your content and to appear in their content I mean there are people that can do it themselves and just are lucky but I feel like if you want to grow fast or faster I would work with your friends like say you have 50 subs he has 100 subs work with him try to like get his fan base and then just grow from that it would take a long time I think but it's better than just being by yourself because if you by yourself you don't work on other people's videos they're probably not going to wear and work with just your videos so i would say it's a huge thing to collaborate i think as long as you bounce it out as well because you also want to grow yourself too so people know you for you rather than oh this guy real cords with only fear razor and then oh if he doesn't recall the Pharaohs any more than I don't know who he is so if you balance it for example recording with a razor like monday and tuesdays and then I do like solo videos like Wednesday Thursday also builds yourself so people can get to know you and then so it's always good to do solo stuff a collaboration it's always so great like get your name out there so their audience can see who you are too and also trying like meet people who are sort of like your same subscriber size because you don't wanna be like a file subscribers trying to record with someone who's like a million subscribers because well like unless they're friends they probably wouldn't want to work work with you because it's not beneficial in both ways so yeah networking is always a good thing to do even like if you're not doing YouTube I mean if you wanted to do business stuff it's usually a great idea but I'm like what cuz he was saying and everyone else like collabing with other people and then kind of just not really becoming your own brand like just kind of just letting the other person take over the video and just essentially just be the recording in the background you want to you know make videos that are about you so you definitely don't want the youtuber who's a lot bigger than you I guess overshadowing your channel so it's definitely a good idea to just do your own thing when you can and to also network and just you know have a good time and enjoy we do right I agree harbison I think collaborating is like a hundred percent necessary like you can get lucky or you can do it yourself but it's extremely difficult but the thing like dizzy said to was that you gonna make sure that you don't have an audience that depends on another person your video in case you're not friends with them anymore you fall out or you just don't want to rapport with them or whatever you don't want to make like an audience that wants to watch you and them together always like you just don't want to depend on that so have a solo series or whatever and then work with other people to expand your audience and hope that they you know like you enough to stick around just watch you as well so yeah i agree with like pretty much everything they said but I also say I just like recording with friends is so much funner than just recording by herself so I just do it with friends you know yeah that's what I wanted to add was it's not mentioned a lot but even if you have friends that don't do YouTube but you do voice chat that's something that was huge for me when i first started when I was a lot younger was I had a bunch of friends who chatted on teamspeak and they were hilarious and so they couldn't be in all recordings but having them in a couple recordings just acting goofy as can be made for some pretty funny videos and it didn't matter that they weren't other youtubers they were just more people to make your videos more exciting and it's good to involve your friends too because then you get their feedback and they get to have fun with you as well yeah I agree that collaborating is a big part of growing a YouTube channel but because not only does it help you help each other grow but you also build friendships over it I know probably most people meet through recording and that's how most friendships start so it's good for growing and building relationships with people adding to what she was saying all my friends are from YouTube and I've recorded with them all the people that stood up in my wedding or from YouTube and I record with them met them on youtube so collaboration brains friendship and like Izzy said though you don't want to get caught in that trap where it's like hey that's the guy skydoesminecraft records with because if you become that guy you don't have your own identity like you lose yourself kind of so it's nice to have a nice mix of collab and solo content but I guess now we're gonna open the floor to you guys if you have any questions comments concerns line up at that microphone and will answer any of your questions that you guys have there's a hot mic out videos right ideally any questions at all you can about video production anything on some good we got a about 20 million when we showed it up girl also okay this is for dizzy what happened after Big Mac went ballistic when he tried the Charlie Charlie challenge I don't think we've actually kind of resolved that so I'm just gonna go over here so hey Tyson Noel do you I feel like Tyson could answer that one better than I can cuz I just got right on the pool he's the one with the anger I threw him in the pool and it was fantastic check out bad lounge room in the pool again I throw him in the pool Mike three times now at Zach's wedding room in the pool as well and it was fantastic that pool was cold it was great y la one was imagine gizzy look dizzy fallen in the pool three times Oh Mel ting not the Queen Thank awesome this is mainly for Kip what equipment do you use when you make your music videos I use like my microphone an audio things so that recently I started using this cuz Steve MLG ha showed me actually how do you smile equipment that I've had for a long time but I use my guitar obviously my microphone and then a big part of the thing is though is like learning how to eq your audio afterwards which is very complicated and it takes a while but as long as you have your microphone you could just have a microphone and your voice or your tie i did that for the longest time but that's I don't try yeah that's a good question ok so my first question is for Kim what is with the lay around your head I lost my headband the other night in the hotel I think the cleaning lady took it actually Zach cuz I left now I cannot steal your headband it was sweaty she wanted it she was beautiful it had many fabulous maybe I was twisted and it could have been experi what could have you lost it he lost it and he likes to blame and this is now there he had it at night and it was missing in the morning so either she broke in in the middle of the night what are you I bet she did that's what I'm going with me to my head man she wanted it she saw me she just sneaking around while you snore like oh I want is that's the only one that snores in our room let's be real okay my second question is do any of you watch Doctor Who I wished up to the ape series with pizza hut called pedalled oh the coke caught whatever is left yeah I did I don't like him but I loved David said in Matt Smith Amy Pond I was wondering if you would like to be my companion I'm sort of trying to put them I just a tad closer to your mouth kid would you like to be my companion because I am trying to find somebody to roam the universe with I'm currently taking with Kipp Gibbs my companion Gibby Gibby we can all explore the universe together guys no no just anxious Gibby thank you how do you wait is this thing on you got it man sorry okay how you choose the youtubers for your for your role play videos gizzy chasm sorry oh oh yeah I see like what could be like fun like I'd like to see what the scenario i could be a fun and like what you jus could be funny in that situation and so that i just kind of like adapt with that and then I also anchored like friends like I've had a razor now five notes buddies one I guess I'm not your friend I guess I'm not here friend well you weren't I don't know that next one spoilers yeah thank you um I have two questions for dizzy and kid what would be the best equipment to use but the cheapest for what specifically a gaming like I for recording everything like audio and oh yeah I mean I think perhaps is free fraps is not free it's not you get that logo if you use for a change of three that's what Tyson uses you can I know dxtory is only like thirty dollars or forty dollars which is I'm better than these guys at this I'm a low-budget game as you are he's got last the wrong person here we go I'm gonna say I used on this clip-on microphone and i got it for fifteen dollars at best buy it was a samsung and it sounded amazing don't even knew I used this not to mention me and kid on even from America so with like asking us also hey kids you do some April this up all right all right I would also use Camtasia because you can use the recording software and you can use the editing software and the editing software is so simple it's even easier than the new movie maker like I remember the old movie maker was awesome the new one it's hard I'm confused yeah but no I would use chem teacher because you can get it for free and then I would also use the camtasia recorder and then for like a microphone any cheap microphone would work for the start you can at best buy for like fifteen twenty dollars i agree with that and the second question is on a scale to 1 to 10 how real is Gibby how real is 0000 real is giving how really how he was giving this is how real Gibby is 0 kb is real so it's a 10 never let go ok let it go it's all at six yeah it's about it for 4.5 so i want to record skits but i only have a webcam so what should i do i record skits and i would say that would work i started off like just like oh he doesn't have a webcam yeah hi I heard it right um boogie is a really good example of this boogies I he's got 1.8 million subs and he only records in his bedroom on his webcam there's ways to create characters just by doing it with your webcam I think you could still become very successful when I started I just used my webcam as well and i just sat in front and that created like characters like one hard and I record like you can definitely do it you can definitely just um what kind of we're gonna skits are you into um like funny skits in my friend Caleb over there oh you guys can definitely do some cool things especially since you had someone yeah we did this a show yeah and we literally just did confessions like skidded out confessions in front of the webcam and that grew us really big actually and that was back in two thousand eight and you can definitely do it we had like a couple thousand subs and a thousand people watching / video and it was really fun and I think you can definitely do it yeah my second question is for Kip where's your bro where's my bro yeah my bros not here and he should be I mean that's our Lady Rose but like car bro brawl it's not here and he's working it's unfortunate he should be here dude it's unfortunate yeah that's obvious that's awesome yes I'm so glad you know that so most of you all have custom builds pc's I was wondering how much ram do use how much dedicated was dedicated well dedicated wham sweet speed by is it wham Wham it's actually random yeah I know dedicate a wham I have 32 gigabytes a dedicated waiting for my city of it hate what is what is that I guess I have 16 it's pretty good yeah at 32 32 yeah f32 you don't need 32 though your computers can't even use 32 but we have it just cuz yeah I'm 32 32 16 okay thank God I'm not the only home 16 I was like wow what kind of suck but eight is still good for my graphic yeah it's good but because we got custom pcs virtuous because let's cast away cuz he let him walk away you look at him Nick easy 10 year it's okay thank you hypixel or the hive I would play high pixel what is that the one where it's something you get to hide as a block as well or is that oh the zombie one yeah they have the walking dead one and that's fun so I'd see the hypixel the hypixel the hypixel I say hi hi pick ok one above high pixel hashtag high pixel that like both I I used to go on hypixel a lot so I'd have to say I pixel for me hypixel yeah hypixel that's the only one I know so high pixel Qi my pixel questions what's the stolen kid uh skit or a video not true this which one was all stolen what the where I stole that kid yes what do you think yeah that kids in my basement still hopefully he's still alive I fed him I've been here for what five days ago oh he might not be alive anymore and the second one is will you guys be playing video games over there later on oh for sure that's what will own you only if we win though let us win did you have trouble recording and doing YouTube when you were in school that's a yes I went to university whilst i was doing university and that was hard see for you you about to do that cuz you're about to go to full film school with a mum okay so yeah so it was a real struggle to balance out but you just gotta find yourself a schedule to like okay so I got an edge because education is first day of school everybody stay in school education is first number one let me hear don't listen agency go thanks don't listen to gizzy don't have to care I'd stay in my cooler when I was in school making videos because like everyone was super excited in my school that I actually had a viewership I was making minecraft attendants go see I wasn't making Mike revenues i was making skits and everyone was like oh I want to be in him I want to be a mounds like no I'm so powerful but no I would say for sure it's like it's hard but like I think you have a lot more options of people to use cuz like right now like we only have like people that live across the Caesar maybe our neighbors our friends that live in LA but like when I was in school I had a ton of people that wanted to be in the videos and it was much easier it's funny actually because this is the first time my online friends I'm a university friend over there it was coincidentally here as well so hi Tom I wish I had to talk hi mom hi Tom he works on a cruise and he's just here finally excited let it go oh yeah when I started you in a university and a little bit into high school that's when i was doing YouTube and I kind of I should have focused more on school to get like the you know though the grades right but no I would definitely say it was difficult but it was a bit of a struggle to do like balance it out but if you do it you totally should you know like school is more important you want to do that above YouTube YouTube should be a hobby and only a hobby if it turns into something else that's great too but again like I just want to back up even if it is your job yeah exactly like you want to it's a nice little backup but again like you should focus on school and stuff for you know now so we want to get through all the questions cuz we have say you had minutes left with don't say just yesterday it is tough to yeah we're gonna speed through these next we will only have like around ten minutes so let's do the next question they're kicking us out essentially I have two questions first one if I ever get a channel what um we're cool what editing and recording stuff should I get as it should identify down there you guys can answer this question oh well if you want a free recording software OBS is a good free one I use morose action it's like 30 bucks so you'd do that if you have 30 bucks to spend if you just want to start out even windows movie maker just to make a basic video like people laugh at it but I mean it works and it start out with whatever you have access to and like you said OBS is free and it's great and just start with what you have access to and start making videos and see what happens it did spending too much time working and picking out your software and hardware means you're not going to get started soon enough I actually recommend Camtasia because it's a it's also an editing software but also a screen recorder so you can do both with just condition and the second one like what audio or what audio stuff should i get for a beginning anyway like a good Mike you know that it's not a bad I mean walk then whatever your budget don't get Mike any Mike if you want to start leasing a little bit of a budget I would say a meteor mic it's really good and I mean / gasm was just using it and I used to feel almost my whole career so far so I would definitely use that thank you thank you what is the weirdest fanfiction you have ever read about yourselves I don't want to do what you feel Jan they are weird there's so many like if you want like fanfic Dark Matters and like that there's like some seriously gross ones that's Steve oh we've read your wattpad stories I've read all of them you sick people they're hilarious don't ever stop but stop though but don't stop that was good does anybody here know fantabulous anyone know about him he's a singer musician yeah phew you anyways um he's another youtuber and me and him a really good friends and for some reason people have just made a bunch of fanfic of us right and I've read some and my friends know about it now back home and they don't leave me alone about it so as a few Gibby's other is it really there's a few good night I see some weird BAM lounge one ones like with all four of us like me bird Zack and Steve it's real gross I wrote it it's real gross we've seen though we probably haven't read them all but we so I read every single one let's go with the next but thank you very much okay real quickly uh you I don't remember your name I'm sorry don't feel the eraser don't feel bad um I use a guitar hero Mike and the PlayStation Eye camera for webcam whoa uh second kid that kid wait yes Kip Kip and uh you see isn't Oh dizzy Kevin grazier yeah me Big Mac Tyson Tyson fake yes how did it feel

the easiest 10 like cereal it was just a serial have a bowl of cereal please fish oh that's probably a challenge I'll never do on my channel oh you'll do just looks like disgusting you'll see down to it no thank you Thanks hi bro this for all of you um a scale from 1-10 how difficult is it to record videos I think it just becomes fun i don't think it's difficult I would say some are difficult because they take setting up but how difficult videos are to make sometimes I got I stress out if I miss a day it was like I need I need to upload a video like I need to but yeah it's just fun it's like a just really stressful like when we have like a time crunch like on BAM lunch I you usually use other youtubers in the videos and they have stuff to do like dizzy and it's like sometimes you get stressful but usually we just like let's calm down and let's just do it yep so honest go from one and ten let's get one to ten give it a sometimes it's a seven yeah seven seven yeah it tastes s all it sometimes a 10 if it's a really hard video but 75 ok hi Bert dr. pepper you guys were talking about a fellow named Burke assam would you say that y'all are pretty good friends with no I hate him no I
