What inspired you to start making videos?

Really enjoyed watching content.. tried to dabble in beauty but ultimately decided to be me and I've always been told I'm quirky.. I was named Class Clown so I decided to start a Comedyish channel!
 
I found Markiplier a few months ago and absolutely LOVE his Let's Plays. The fact that we both grew up in Cincinnati made me feel really close to him, and he's pretty much the most grateful YouTuber I've ever seen. He said in one of his videos that if even one subscriber watches, that's more important than getting a thousand more. That quote gave me the final push I needed to make a channel.
 
After spending a lot of time watching youtube videos, I realised that making videos looked like fun and I wanted to do it too!
 
I've always been interested in videos and making them, back before streaming videos online was a main stream thing. Now with the emergence of sites like Youtube, indie filmmakers have somewhere to turn to. Yay!
 
Hello, The reason I started was because I wanted to do something different with my life, take a new path, meet new people, Travel and do something that makes me happy which is making YouTube videos and making others happy by enjoying my videos. I currently work in a Bakery and been doing so for around 5 years now and i know I'm going no where soon, which gave me the motivation to start making videos and doing something useful with my life as I don't fancy doing that for the rest of my life.
 
My own social awkwardness. I'm really bad with face to face chats.
I thought youtube would be the best go between for that.
Then I ended up doing more gaming videos because I like gaming and do way too much game hopping for a normal person.
That gave me the idea to review the mmos I leave behind.
After I started doing that I got lazy and just wanted to post some gameplay videos.
I still do vlogs, but I don't like having to go through all the work to make sure I look good enough for them.

I am obsessed with fashion. I have been my whole life, the very first toy I bought for myself with allowance money was a Barbie fashion plate set. I loved playing with bedsheets to build forts and drape dresses. I went to fashion school and got my certificate in fashion design, and the videogames I play are dress-up themed. I have some frustrations about what I see other people wearing, so I wanted to make videos to share my knowledge of how to dress yourself! It's an excuse to go shopping so that I'm not wearing the same thing in every video, and a chance to wear the cool stuff I have that isn't really "work" appropriate. This is an outlet for my psychedeliac fashionista urges.

Same here. I've always been obsessed with makeup, and matching up different colors so they look good to me. Right now, I am expanding my perception of beauty, and am starting in making inner beauty and fashion videos. I sometimes find it a remedy for my "boring" life. And I agree with the "excuse" part. I find my self to have way more reason in buying more makeup, so I can use them in hauls and first impression videos. :)
 
For me it was random! one day we bought some bean boozled and wanted to film our reaction eating it to share with friends/families and we just started making weekly challenges videos as a couple!
