If you look at a successful YouTubers and try to be exactly like them you’re not going to get anywhere,” Hizkias said. I think it’ really boring to watch a YouTubers who you can tell is trying to be like every single other person on YouTube. She has learned some key things through her experiences, and wants blossoming YouTubers to know that they can succeed without changing themselves. While Hizkias has been in the YouTube business for quite a while, she knows how it can feel to just be starting out. “That’s where you sell out, because that’s not what it’s all about.” “I think you have to be honest about showing products,” she said. But, she warns YouTubers this shouldn’t be their focus and motivation. She also is paid to put ads at the beginning of her videos, or show a company’s product in her videos. She explains that the amount of money she gets is based off how well she does each month, how many subscribers she has, how many views a video gets, and how often she posts. Not only is this an extracurricular activity for Hizkias, but she also gets compensated for what she does. “I made a goal at the beginning of 2014 to have 50,000 subscribers by 2015, and I ended the year with 44,000, which was closer than I thought.” “When I first started out I was just trying to get 100 subscribers, but as you gain, you start setting bigger goals for yourself,” she said. By building a fan base, it became easier to gain popularity. She explained that she did that by making popular videos, such as ‘outfits of the week,’ but adding her own twists to them. “You have to mix it up and have creativity, or else no one will watch, because your videos will all be the same.”Īs a YouTuber, Hizkias wanted to build up more subscribers.
“A lot of the times with beauty videos they get sort of boring, so I feel like I have more personality than a lot of other ‘beauty gurus,’” she said. I thought I was all cute and fashionable, and my friends and I used to do fashion shows at the park, so I decided to post some,” she said.Īlthough she likes fashion, Hizkias doesn’t consider herself a “beauty guru.” She says she has a mix of comedy and beauty, but she notes that it’s important to be creative with her videos, and to not be repetitive. She created videos at first out of boredom, but also because she likes fashion. Hizkias says she spends at least an hour filming “discussion” videos and a couple of hours editing them. “It takes a long time to edit and film, but if you pace yourself and make a schedule you’re good and you’re well rounded.” “It’s one of the hardest parts about being a YouTuber, balancing videos and editing with schoolwork,” explained Hizkias. But- plot twist- the people making the videos are also being distracted from their schoolwork, like sophomore Liya Hizkias, who has over 46,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel. While doing said homework, students often get distracted- whether it is by their phones, television, or maybe a video on YouTube.
