Ooooosh
Hi there. Ever since I uploaded this little gem-
-my YouTube audience has essentially doubled.
Which is terrifying for me
So I thought I would take the edge off and sort of just make a video-
-introducing myself and you know explaining all the stuff that goes on up here. So...
mmm 'kay.
Like I said: My name is Jon, that's short for Jonathan and I'm a 21-year old College student.
So I...I'm sorry. Could you refocus the lens. Yeah cool.
So I am a person of the internet. I am a content creator as it were.
Ah...
Ok, who is in charge of these graphics? One second.
Hey, you, graphics guy
[Graphics guy] Yeah boss.
[Jon] Yeah, I'm not paying you to make me look bad. So...
[Graphics guy] You're not paying me at all.
[Jon] That's not the point
[Graphics guy] Well it would be sort of silly to pay yourself, wouldn't it?
[Jon] Ahh...
Ahhhh....aaaahhhh
Anyways I turned 21 in April
Up until my 21st birthday I had actually never consumed alcohol before-
-so my friend Titi actually threw a costume party and I...
Could you focus on the...
[Guy behind camera] Oh, sorry
Yeah, there we go, cool
Ah, yeah so she threw this costume party and I dressed up like Kim Jong-un
And I had roughly eight to nine shots of rum and tequila
*pop*
So you can sort of imagine me
*techno music*
*drunk talk*
*random sounds*
And I am sure you can also imagine me the next morning...
Aaaaa, the light!
Ahhh...
I mean, I didn't actually vomit or anything-
-but I did feel... icky, all day
Moral of the story, growing up makes you feel icky all day
*teeth click* Got 'em, he
Ok, could you PLEASE stop messing with the focus
[Guy behind camera] Whoops, sorry
Thank you
Um...
Gosh, what is... Line!
[Director] I'm still single...
Yeah, ok
Yeah, s-so I-I am still single, I've been single since the insanity video
But I'm not hopelessly single anymore
Like, I do go on dates every once in a while
I say charming things like
That blouse does not make you look fat
And then I usually follow up by saying not charming things like
Hey, did you know I'm a Slytherin?
Aww, really?
Yeah, so you should let me slyther-in to you
Yeah, so I go on a lot of first dates in college
*smack* Aaa!
I go to college at UT Austin (hook 'em horns)
And... I'm a film major there, so I'm basically studing eh...
Okay, could you PLEASE focus
[Guy behind camera] Sorry, I apologize
You're sort of ruining all my jokes here, buddy, so...
[Guy behind camera] Hehe, that joke was ruined before the focus was, right?
What?
[Guy behind camera] Yeah, your script kind of sucks, sorry
*sigh* One second
Hey, you, writer guy
[Writer guy] At your service
[Jon] Yeah, your script kind of sucks
[Writer guy] Hey, YOUR script kind of sucks
[Jon] Exactly, you wrote it
[Writer guy] YOU wrote it
[Jon] Huh?
*achefumwa*
Anyways, I'm going to film school so I'm basically studying unemployment
[Director] Hey, could you say it funnier?
[Jon] Huh?
[Director] The line. Say it funnier. So they know it's a joke
[Jon] But it's not a joke. It's why it's funny
[Director] Pfft, what, did you write the script?
[Jon] Yes, I did
[Director] Oh, so I guess you're the director now too, huh?
[Jon] I AM the director
[Director] Exactly, say it funnier!
[Jon] I'm going to film school so I'm basically studying unemployment!
*badum tsss*
Director: Hmm, be funnier
Jon: ugh, I wrote the script, I am editing the video, I set up the camera, I am the director so I am gonna say the words how I wanna say the words!!!
Jon: Aahh
I do all this YouTube stuff by myself, alone and it does drive me a little... loopy, sometimes.
So whether I am in front of the camera or behind it, or editing or writing. I do always feel conflicted and I am always fighting with myself
But ya know, I guess that´s part of the process and the final product is worth it
Thank you guys for being patient, thank you guys for being kind
