Unemployment
« on: October 04, 2007, 12:46:42 AM »
Right, so I know I'm making a ton of funhouse threads - read up; on my excessive use of punctuation:

I'm thinking, how can I best use my talents to create a job? Not just get a job. I want to make one, from scratch. A lot of people have done this with less talent than I. For instance that Britney guy/girl/thing, whose only major talent is being a freak, or the mentos/coke guys, who probably snort a lot of mentos/coke if you GET WHAT I'M SAYING...

I guess what I AM saying is that I want to somehow become an internet (youtube?) celebrity; how to do this? I can embarrass myself on youtube, which is not really much of a gameplan; I was thinking (and I'm dead serious) of trying to video blog instead of actually blogging. Reasons:

1) No one reads my blog. I have made $4.32 through Google Ads over the past six months.

2) I talk okay.

3) Video blogs of me caring A LOT about stuff I like could either be really appreciated, or laughed at, and I wouldn't care which so long as I'm being honest.

4)

Is it possible?

Video tape yourself killing small animals.  Moles, mice, moose, just any mammal will do.  After uploading, you'll earn instant celebrity status.

You gotta have a hook. Do it as Frankenstein's Monster or something offbeat like that.

I know of a nice audio blog or "podcast" that you could probably get on.

But, I would make a series to put on YouTube. Like, something sitcom-y. I assume you have the writing skills to do this.

Your best bet is to follow this game plan.

1)  Completely rip off Zero Punctuation only do it for NWR.
2)  Wait for the Internet to take notice
3)  
4)  Profit

LOL, that was hilarious, but it is sad because most of what he said is so true.

Just reviewing Halo 3's single player is like just reviewing Metroid Prime 2's multiplayer. Regardless, Yahtzee is brilliant (or at least, I think he is. His British accent might be throwing me off.)

On topic: Evan, I can't tell you whether video blogging will lead to instant fame and riches. But if you start putting out videos, I'll watch them.

Evan just needs to dress up like a Hobo and parade around Medford with massive cardboard signs proclaiming everything and anything controversial, while begging for money
