Youtube Success!

Okay, so I see the thing near the post now button that says blogs are not to be used as referrals, so I dont' know if I should post a link to my Youtube channel or not.. But okay, onto the story. Back in my senior year of high school I was in the tv production class and I was the stereotypical nerd of the group... Meaning I was the one to do voiceovers and most commercials invovling video games. During senior year I starred in 6 WoW commercials (funny thing is, I don't play WoW at all), my favorite of which I posted on my YouTube account with my other favorite things I've co-produced. Well, when the last WoW expansion came out the views for it skyrocketed and I've noticed that lately they've been going up again! Anyways, the reason I'm excited is Youtube contacted me tonight and actually asked if they could sell adspace for my video and pay me! I know this probably doesn't mean anything to a lot of people and there's probably quite a few people on CAG that have gotten offers like this, but I'm absolutely floored by the chance to make money from something I helped make!
And for anyone that wants to go see the video, here is the link. If views count as referrals then just tell me in the comments and I'll take it down. |

I also had a couple offers from youtube based off of my views. I filled out a detailed form complete with all copyright info for all the free to use music and video I had used, but was declined because I "have not provided adequate documentation that you have the necessary rights to commercially use all the video material and music". My second offer I am holding off to fill out until I research everything needed to make sure I am accepted.
That WoW gameplay may cost you your money. Be very detailed that Blizzard allows players to record gameplay. |

I'm not sure about how much yet, kube.
And thanks for the heads up, Nebenator! I'm currently talking it over with my co-producer for the video and he's excited. I just have to get the info from him about the music he used and stuff. |
