    So what you're saying is...every time we see a Buzzfeed article like "Pick a color and we'll tell you the perfect dog for you" there's a burnt out intern panicking and crying in a stairwell hoping to meet some target / deadline. If I remember correctly Buzzfeed was started by Ze Frank, right, and his personal UA-cam channel was always very thoughtful / smart / quirky. So how does he end up making a site like what Buzzfeed currently is? Or is he mostly hands off / you never met him?

      Buzzfeed Unsolved is a ripped off version from the horror community here on UA-cam. They steal a lot from these smaller channels. If you're interested in this genre, I highly recommend the channels ScareTheater and gabulosis. Their videos have a lot to do with unsolved horror.

    When you did work for Buzzfeed I enjoyed seeing your videos or ones that you were in. For a while I was wondering where people like you, gaby and allison had gone because I no longer saw any videos or content with y'all. I look forward to seeing videos from your own page now and hope that all works out. It sucks that your time with Buzzfeed had to end but if you feel it's best for you then you gotta do what's best for you.

  • @femangel
    @femangel 8 років тому +562

    I see a lot of people in the comments saying this man is immature and doesn't understand how the real world works but I see what he is saying. You have to take into consideration, he is just passionate about his art and what he does. He took a job expecting it to be a good creative outlet however things didn't work out. Plenty of people experience this, it's not uncommon. Many famous film makers, artists, painters, writers, used to have day jobs before they quit to pursue what they care about. He isn't complaining he is just providing an explanation, and clarifying for those who thought he was fired. Buzzfeed is a great company it just wasn't the one for him and that's fine. No need to attack either of them in the comments.

      He wanted to try it out, he did and ended up not liking it. I see nothing wrong with it. I do see something wrong with people staying at the same job even though they hate it. I mean, you have the power to leave the job if it tortures you that much, you have the power to find a new one as well. I don't understand why people are hating on him tbh. I worked at a vet hospital for almost 2 years and quit because I couldn't handle the stress of seeing animals die, and then having to move those animals. I am not someone who is okay with death or knows how to handle it, and at the time I was depressed, so that job made everything in my life worse. Although it took me a while, I realized I had the option to leave and better myself, which I did. Now why is quitting your job a bad thing, especially if you're doing it to better yourself which is what he did as well? That question was not directed to you, lol. Anyway I agree with you 100%.

    • @dantheman8103

      Hey, I just subscribed & finished the video.
      I think you should really make a video with some of the other people who left Buzzfeed. Ask them to collaborate with you on a fun video? That would be nice..because a lot of popular/good people left Buzzfeed too. Just an idea. People might like to see it. I mean, I'd like to see it..

  • @locketofsunshine
    @locketofsunshine 8 років тому +724

    I think the main problem with Buzzfeed these days is that there seems to be an overwhelming amount of pointless, random videos. Now this is what happens when you take a bunch of talented, enthusiastic people, sit them down, and tell them to "make a viral video each month". Simply the word "viral" is pressuring enough (and way too broad, to say the least), but to put such a strict time limit on each individual is killing creativity at its finest.
    What Buzzfeed needs right now to redeem itself is to shift their motto from "viral" to "focus". What I mean by this is to have series that each have their own theme or generalization that are unique to themselves. Let's take a look at the current successful series at Buzzfeed: Try Guys, Ladylike, Test Friends, Unsolved, and Debatable. People don't comment the usual "Buzzfeed is running out of ideas" criticisms on these videos because they each have their own direction and charm that draws a targeted audience. As another example, take a look at successful UA-cam channels. Pewdiepie is a gaming channel, nigahiga writes funny skits, and not to mention the many popular beauty gurus out there. They know what they're good at and they milk it, and they demonstrate the consistency that Buzzfeed has yet to find.
    So Buzzfeed, if you're reading this, sometimes less is more. Sure, making clickbait titles and thumbnails gets you the views, but in the end, if you make quality content over a long period of time, there *will* be people out there who will like your videos, you *will* gain subscribers, and you *will* get your views in the end. Best wishes.

    • @locketofsunshine
      @locketofsunshine 8 років тому +6

      Also, in this video it appeared as if there are a lot of individuals who work on their own videos from start to finish. But I believe the saying "two heads are better than one" works really well in the entertainment or video-making industry. Recent Buzzfeed videos vary *so* much in terms of subject and quality that it ranges from boiling urine to taste tests to climbing buildings using suction cups; it's almost baffling. If everyone pits in to come up with video ideas instead of doing their own thing, I guarantee that better ideas will come. Heck, you might even find a video idea genius who you can use to specialize in coming up with ideas. Good luck Buzzfeed, I'm actually rooting for you despite all the harsh words. You guys have all the resources and people necessary, but one concrete and stubborn way of doing things only works for so long.

      The thing I don't get are the white editors who slam White people for being White....despite being White themselves and acting as if we're supposed to look past that? I mean....you're telling us every White person on the planet is X or whatever but in the same light, you're White so we should treat you like shit as you INSTRUCT us to but when we do what you say you cry foul.
      Can you see why doing that type of pandering doesn't get shit done? XD

      It's called Virtue Signaling. Essentially, they slam their own race to make themselves feel morally superior. This gives them the sense that they can do or say anything to gain support from minorities, people under the age of 18, or just lower income people overall because the demographic they target are people who spend most of their day online and using social media (aka people who don't really work). So once they've amassed an enormous group of people who like their content, they begin to spread rhetoric about race, social justice, and gender. They unabashedly spew fake news, identity politics, and smear campaigns to further their narrative and indoctrinate entire groups of impressionable young people without encouraging them to do research and strive for TRUTH. They design all of their videos and articles to play on the emotions of the consumer. The feel good tactics they've been trying recently have created a huge backlash and it'll hopefully be their undoing. Fingers crossed!

      Oh I know what it is since I'm part of the demo they're trying to get laid with. The thing is, the shit they're saying is stuff a lot of people already know, whether they're Black, White, or ect or shit they blow out of proportion which in turn actually does worse for the people they oh-so want to protect.
      Also there is the fact that as a whole, the videos just suck anyway. Shitty, uninteresting layout with more 'Here's what X told me' rather than anything that is actually informational, something that is funny considering that Buzzfeed holds itself up to be a *NEW* news outlet. They say print media is dead, maybe but digital news is dying it's own death and that can be thanked in part of it not actually being NEWS and being run by people who care more about popularity than information.
      You can argue that news has always been like that but if that says anything it's that digital journalism/news ISN'T any different than old/print media and has it's own massive crutch which is the intense hunger to virtue signal they'll fuck people over on headlines the SECOND they come out because they are that hungry for those click-bucks.
      I like discussions but Buzzfeed does not provide that nor do the outlets that emulate the same style over and over again. At the end of the day it's just 'And this is White people's fault' while the whole article had NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT as well as not really telling me anything but misinformation while sneaking in a click-title.
      God, I hate this shit.

      MIS315 it is something that a lot of people feel when they leave jobs that basically squeeze your brain for all the creativity you have. I know that none of what I just said is able to be studied with proven methods of observation, but I also felt the same way when I left my job as a tooling designer at an aerospace manufacturing firm. I first loved the job; I got to work with CAD programs, and learn the methods of manufacturing. I also had to solve problems that pop up every step of the way, for 10 hours a day. It feels like your head is about to explode. I did notice that the phrase you mentioned is consistent with younger people these days, and I conclude that we are just not used to the work load and pressure.

You guys never finished the "When A Hookup Is More Than Just Sex" series *tear tear*. And I don't think there was another episode after "When You Tell Your Crush You Like Them" which I'm gonna cry about for the rest of my life... lol anyways love ya Kenny x

      TheWaverunners I agree with you, that would be nice. Unfortunately being creative doesn't generate revenue (read: buy food), so arts patronage and quotas have led to a tremendous amount of the most famous works of the past 2000 years. More than that though, you're assuming that BuzzFeed videos are artistic creations rather than calculated revenue-generating productions. Anyways, if you're unfamiliar with patronage, there's a wiki.

    BuzzFeed was my dream job, but I wanted to become a UA-camr as well. I still have a lot of time to decide, but that's not my point. What I wanted to say is, that after all these rumours and whatever happened in BuzzFeed I'm a little bit more concerned about getting a job there. I feel like there needs to be a lot of devotion and that there will be much pressure to get work done. I was always afraid of the word "no" and that's why getting fired from a job is one of the worst things that can happen to me. I'm not really sure why I'm writing all of these here, maybe it's because it's thanks to your video that I've learnt about all of these.
    Anyways, I believe that you made the right choice as well. I will support whatever you do next and I hope you will succeed in it.
