 So as you guys know, we're going full speed ahead in a completely new direction right now. I'm trying to teach myself blueprints and unreal trying to set up a discord trying to figure out how to do live streams. There's a lot going on for me and I was trying to think about what would be a really useful thing to talk about here while I'm trying to figure all that stuff out in the background. And so I've decided that the next couple videos I'm going to answer the most common question I get during a consultation or a message or private dms on patreon and art station from lots of artists managers designers and developers always ask how do I do what you do how do I build a channel like yours how do I be a youtuber and I always respond with well I can't really tell you because I'm not a real youtuber like in my opinion a true youtuber has at least half a million subscribers and easily makes enough per month to hire their own editor social media manager and thumbnail artist I'm not really on that level so I consider myself more of a sub mid-level potential youtuber so if you want to know how to get millions of subs then you are asking the wrong guy but if you want to know how to slowly build a channel to the point where it can at least make enough to barely pay for rent depending on where you live that I can help you with and usually most people right afterwards are like you know what yeah that's fine too tell me how you do that so I figured instead of answering the same question a thousand times I'm just going to walk all of you through the process publicly here and show you exactly step by step how to do what I do but just to be upfront about this like all the other tutorials before I am not going to sugarcoat this process and I'm not going to answer this the way a lot of other how to be a youtuber videos usually do to make it more digestible for casual viewers I'm going to give you very raw very realistic and practical answers and they're not necessarily going to be difficult to do but they will be difficult to keep doing a lot of people come in from the angle of I hate my job I hate working that's why I want to be a youtuber and if you try and come into youtube with that mentality you are setting yourself up for a rough ride because in order to build a functioning channel to the point where it starts to grow and have prospects it will more than likely take more work than whatever you're doing at your current job right now and it's probably not going to make money for the first two years but if you're okay with that and you're willing to plant seeds for the long-term future then yeah there's definitely a chance to make it work so if you have no money no skills no friends no connections and a full-time job that seems like a dead end but you have drive you have ideas you're willing to learn and most importantly you're willing to grind then in the next couple videos I will teach you exactly how I learned to do all this stuff in the middle of college while working two jobs that I hated and I will not be hiding anything behind a paywall let me repeat that this is not a first part free and the rest of the course is behind a paywall bullshit and that is because the members and patrons who support the channel each month specifically prefer that all the information and videos that I release be free and available to you guys here there are no hidden secret tutorials on my patreon the patron is really just a bunch of volunteers that just want to help make sure that you have all the information you need to build your dreams I have asked them before if they want private tutorials and they always say no just put it all in public and publish everything and that is what we're going to do for this series so if you join me next video I will show you exactly step by step how to build a youtube channel hope that helps thank you so much for watching and as always hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around
