The YouTube Process // 20/10/2012 // An Introduction
The YouTube Process is a Blog about my YouTube Channels, iRue399 and RuesRealm. I've been a YouTuber for over two and a half years, so I've seen the Gaming community rise to it's peak, produced over 450 videos and encountered hundreds of people. I plan to keep a daily blog about what I've been doing throughout the day, writing down any ideas/videos that I've come up with. Just to keep a blog of whatever... This is a college project. Just so you know. ;)
So... Saturday 10th October, what's been going on you ask? I went to work, filled some shelves and scanned some shopping for the elderly, wonderful. Well, considering thought isn't something others can hear, see or understand because it's in your mind, I wasn't necessarily thinking about the supposed "free range eggs" all day long.
As it happens, an idea about a Live Stream dawned on me. As I'm a partner with a gaming company called Machinima, I have the ability to stream video live to my Youtube Channel. It's a way of engaging viewers with the channel and is fun to do. I've done it several times before and I'm starting to get the hang of it, but I think tomorrow I'll do one that's sole purpose is to collect ideas from the community, so that I've got an idea of what they'd like to see in the near future.
Running a YouTube Channel can be taxing from time to time, especially if you're pretty dedicated to it. People say "oh it's just making videos and stuff... How hard can it be?" Trust me, until you've been doing it for ages you think like that. My mind is like this though, if you're not feeling it, you're not spending enough time doing it. If you're PASSIONATE about it, you'll do it no matter how much gets in the way of it. You see, I've noticed it to be much harder to make 7 videos a week over the past few months, what with college and work in the mix. It's hard to find time... I've done it though. I've not failed. Which is why I think doing a Live Stream tomorrow will be good. I can do it, so I will.
In terms of the RuesRealm channel eh? Getting slightly worried about it as it's been relatively inactive for a little while. I should be uploading to it a bit more often than I already am, but it's starting to get a little difficult to do both channels at the same time. iRue399 is a much large channel, so the priority obviously goes to that channel. I think if push comes to shove, I'll have to leave it that way for a little bit.
I'm still waiting for GTA 5 News... Until then, BOTH channels are likely to be pretty quiet.

Well, not much more can be said for today. It was a quiet one, I have to admit. I'll be posting tomorrow after the livestream, so keep on the lookout!
