I think this is a pretty cool idea I do both vlogging, comedy and I even do a youtube show and music! I would be honoured and would 100% love to be part of this :)

So I've put a lot of thought into this decision, and I've decided I want to do a "documentary" style kinda video based upon Upcoming YouTuber's. Simply because I see all of these documentary-style videos that are aimed towards already famous YouTuber's and how they did it. But we never really hear much from the people that are on their way.

I'm pretty much going to be basing this on YouTuber's that don't have the "easy way" cut out for them and how they manage to stand out from the crowd. I'll also be throwing in some stuff about how the YouTube community has changed, and how difficult it can be to start/grow a channel now compared to 2010-2012 when most of the now successful YouTuber's were really starting to take off.

I'm going to be putting a lot of time towards this project and I'm posting here asking for an "expression of interest" to take part in this. Also don't think that because you're not gaining hundreds of a subscribers a day that you're not able to be included, the term "upcoming" is fairly loose in this project and I'm really just looking for talented and dedicated creators to take part in this. I'm hoping to get a wide variety of 'tubers together for this project. This is a basic list of the type of content creators I'm hoping to get onboard.

- Vloggers
- Gamers
- Tech Channels
- Skits/Pranks
- Musicians
- And more! (If I can think of any between now and then)

If you have any suggestions as to what other talent pools I should be diving into then feel free to comment or inbox your suggestions. If you know of anyone I should try and get in contact with for this, then please let me know so I can get onto it.

I'm not going to be selling this film, and I'm planning to do most of it out of my own pocket. The finished project will be uploaded to Vimeo/YouTube so everyone can view it for free.

So if you're interested, then you can either comment on this thread or start a conversation, you can even email me here - zackery.wellman97@hotmail.com

Cheers guys,
Zack.

This sounds like a pretty interesting idea. We could potentially fill the skit/prank category, but let me know when you have some more details. In particular things like:

- Have you done any kind of documentary type videos before?
- How many people are you looking for (will it be cram packed with channels, or just focus on a few)?
- How will you be interviewing people? Will you get them to submit somewhat of a self interview that you will cut in with shots of their channel/videos?
- Will you do snapshots of where channels are currently, or do you aim to follow their progress over the course of a while?

Could be fun.
