  • Just how easy is it to become a professional streamer? - that lucky breed of gamer who can fund lavish lifestyles, just by live-streaming their gameplay online. Julia Hardy gives average gamer Matt 30 days to make it as a pro.
    With the help of friends Gross Gore, and Mark Turpin from Yogscast, will Matt be able to pay his rent at the end of the month? Or is getting paid to play just a fantasy?

    The only reason why he made it in 30 days is because he got a huge amount of help and worked for the BBC as soon as someone posts that it was a challenge from the BBC the it all took off really. u do this as a normal streamer and ur looking at 6 months to a year of solid streaming just to gain any type of momentum. u also have to be playing the right game at the right time.

      Agreed, not an accurate representation. This is a 5 minute version of a 26 minute long piece of a year long project. Feel free to pop in the stream to ask questions. A lot of hard work went into this to get off the ground. Do you think the BBC put out an advert or something for this? I handed a different idea on a plate to make something more realistic over 6-12 months. They turned around and said you have 30 days and changed the format. I chose this over nothing

      SPLIFF_L0RD I think that is a little too far, he is not a garbage human being. His content wasnt bad when he popped off in views, (when call of duty was relevant) and started gaining subs. He is just trying to accommodate his current viewing subs. I would suggest that he would change his topic (Call of Duty) he isnt going no where with it. Maybe one day more people that see his channel wont think its garbage just by looking at the titles or thumbnails (kinda like what you are doing.) I hope he sees this. Sorry to disagree with your opinion. What you say could really get to his feelings and we dont want him to make a wrong decision but a right one by changing his content and evolve. Best of Luck Mike! Hope Ill see you in my recommended tab!

    The only reason this worked is because he was shouted out by the streamers he met, most likely hosted by Yogscast and shouted out too and he works for the BBC so recognition was not hard. Me being a streamer myself, I have gained 315 followers since the ends of August 2017 and been donated just under $100 with 7 subs, its a hard process and nowhere near this easy

    What a very misleading and horrendous example of the current streaming climate. This video had him working alongside Syndicate, YOGCAST, and Gross Gore. Normal streamers without this exposure would be lucky to get 50 followers within a month. After doing this for 5 years I can say that if the guy thinks this was hard, then the effort required to do this without the help of those at the top would probably make him consider quitting. Streaming is more about who you know nowadays on top of trying to bring something unique to the table. This guy got a lot of help that normal streamers simply would not get.

    • @gingeylad4538

      100% correct there man. a normie cant possibly make partnership unless they have a big name made up within the gaming community or get hosts and shoutouts or help from bigger streamers. the guy is your average joe on gameplay. man even people who are challenger on league can barely pull in 10 viewers.
      it takes a long time, a lot of dedication..and you gotta perfect the craft to even get anywhere. I myself have been on/off streaming for 1 year and a half (I'm a full time chef) and ive managed to get 850 followers & 20 subs and that's with working full-time and no one knowing who I am.

    • @ViralElectric

    Take it from a streamer. Has nothing to do for how long you been streaming. And if you are lucky and start making enough money to pay rent you're one out of ten thousand. To get anywhere and streaming you don't just hit start streaming, you need to do marketing post on websites, know other streamers, get hosts, and get word-of-mouth from other channels. This video gives false hope. If you really want to make it on Twitch you actually have to work for it and not be lazy it's not just sitting at a PC and hoping people show up. Good luck I've been streaming for 7 years and I'm a partnered streamer it took me 3 years to get partnered even marketing myself and I'm still not where I want to be so I'm going to keep working hard good luck to everybody out there I hope this comment helped.

      Yes, it took 1 year of streaming youtube & twitch before I saw my first donation. Almost finished with my second year and I'm averaging maybe 6 or 7 viewers per stream on twitch and get up to 30 viewers on youtube. Sometimes I get lucky and a bigger streamer does a raid and its an awesome feeling and surprise when they do. I now end all of my streams with a raid on small streamers because I like to pay it forward knowing how I feel when it happens to me.

      @wallerdog 5 років тому +2

      @NorthSouthGaming a raid is when a larger channel on Twitch types in the command /raid NorthSouthGaming and everyone that is watching their Twitch stream can follow them into your live stream. So, all of a sudden you've got 500 people watching instead of 5 and its a good opportunity to pick up some more followers and if you are doing real well maybe even a subscriber. It can happen on UA-cam, as well, but the raider has to do more work as YT does not have an automatic way to raid so they have to tell everyone to follow them in and type #wallerdograid when they go into someone's live YT stream. But it's not something that you can make happen. You can improve your chances by being active in bigger streamers live streams just don't be actively advertising you are a streamer. If they ask, tell them but don't be pushy or they'll cut you off. :-)

    You should have told, what you really did there. You showed how to use connections to make (twitch) streaming work for oneself. Without all those bigger names he probably would have gotten very low attention.
    Also you didn't tell his schedule, how much did he stream per day. If you do this as a full time job and are lucky you still probably wouldn't have gotten a viewership over 15.
    Also how the hell was there after 15 days already an option that he could get subscribers? doesn't that need a twitch partnership of some kind in the first place?

He got in contact with large streamers and groups who more or less jump started his growth. I mean, congrats on him for making it work, but it is worth its weight in words when I say, it isn't easy growing and maintaining that audience.

    Sometimes in life you have to make your own luck. This whole idea was originally mine, I lost my Mum and Dad within a year of each other and this really put things into perspective. Having worked as a camera assistant, runner and eventually spending 4 years learning the ropes in post production I decided a change of pace was needed. I killed 2 birds with one stone and set out on making a documentary about attempting to stream for a living. This idea went over 2 years before it got any ground, all the contacts that featured in this I had reached out to and confirmed them to be involved before any production company backed this. Last minute the guys that made this gave me an ultimatum of 'this needs to be done in 30 days or no documentary'. Imagine how gutted I was, this changed the whole natural feel of what I set out to do. You can't make/grow a fucking community in 30 days.
    I played the hand I was dealt and learnt so much about streaming and making content. I know the grind is real and sometimes I'm down to 2-3 people in the chat sometimes but I truly don't care because I'm playing games and having fun. Chatting to amazing people I get to meet along the way is a a huge added bonus. I've streamed everyday this year (currently Day 320/365) and making my own content this time to show something real and not this BS.

      @Glan FM I am so sorry to hear about your parents. I had a similar thing happen with mine. I lost both of my parents to suicide when I was younger. I am trying to build up a community of smaller twitch streamers now, and hope to create a platform for myself to talk more about my past, and try to help other people struggling with mental illness. It is just quite difficult on Twitch. I hope one day that my hard work will pay off, and I can help other struggling people with their issues. Once again, I am really sorry to hear about your parents. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

  • @Sh4d0wN1nj484
    @Sh4d0wN1nj484 5 років тому +1

    Sometimes in life you have to make your own luck.
    This whole idea was originally mine, I lost my Mum and Dad within a year of each other and this really put things into perspective. Having worked in post production for nearly 11 years learning how programmes are put together. I decided to use these skills i'd learnt and make my own programme!
    This idea took over 2 years before it got any ground (when Radio One said they'd like to help me make the programme), all the contacts that featured in this I had already reached out to and confirmed them to be involved before the BBC backed this.
    Last minute the BBC changed my original timescale of doing this over 6-12 months to just 30 days!!!
    I was given an ultimatum: 'this needs to be done in 30 days or no documentary will be made'. Imagine how gutted I was, this changed the whole natural feel of what I set out to do. You can't make/grow a community and get partnered in 30 days.
    So why did you go ahead with this?:
    I played the hand I was dealt and learnt so much about streaming and making a documentary.
    I know the grind is real and sometimes I'm down to 2-3 people in the chat but I truly don't care because I'm playing games and having fun. Chatting to amazing people I get to meet along the way is a a huge added bonus.
    If this video makes you believe you can do this too in 30 days then please learn that there are no quick ways to do this.
    In 2018 I streamed everyday over 430 broadcasts.
    I'm currently in the process of making my own short film/documentary about what i learnt from all this.
    Come say Hi!

      This is very true. There is no shortcut to becoming someone famous. You need to have a passion to reach goals. It's part of the journey to where you want to get to. If you enjoy it then do it for fun, not for money or to become famous. Life is like climbing a mountain- you may think that it's impossible or you may struggle along the way but eventually you will reach the peak of the mountain and overlook the progress you have made. This is just a brief overview of what it's like. It is meant to take a long time to get there and I agree that it is not fair to fit this into such a short time period. It doesn't completely show people how much commitment is put into these kinds of things. Also, I appreciate the documentary man and I'm sorry for the loss.

      His equipment in general (streamdeck, fully enabled overlay with emotes and all) takes a real streamer who starts off from 0 about a year unless he has a huge load of money on his hands in the first place to put into that kind of stuff.
      Btw the "donations" he recieved were most likely not from his community but from the big streamers communities who shouted him out and multistreamed with him.
      All in all this is not just misleading its straight up lying.
      Because "he" didn't make it in 30 days.
      It was his billion dollar company and other huge streamers who "made him become" that in 30 days.

    At the start when the scum syndicate says "the first day someome waited 6hrs" is technically true. I was at that event (insomnia) and after chatting to people on the stand next to him he failed to also mention was that the reason why someone waited 6 hrs was because whilst his fans were waiting for him (which was only meant to be 30mins max) he was off in subway. Back at his hotel. Basically doing everything apart from his meet and greet.

    As a UA-cam video content creator and a twitch streamer, I can tell you now that this shit is NOT this easy. This man got shout out after shout out, support from big end streamers, live streamed with well known streamers, was 100% focused on streaming only (no person in their right mind can and will EVER try to do a 30 day challenge or else they're homeless). This man had 1 job and that was to get his stream going. Now he does deserve the recognition but the video deserves proper notice too.
    To all my other streamers and video creators I want you to know I'm rooting for you. Obtaining an audience, keeping an audience and making content and constantly giving yourself to that audience is not an easy task. It's very difficult to stay consistant in any task but if you do you may just eventually get there.

    Gl doing it on ur own, Streaming a game that a shit ton of other people are streaming and being super low down on the list, or streaming to 0 viewers for like a good month etc, it's so much about what game you play etc, and being entertaining at that one moment a single viewer stops by, it's damn near impossible to be entertaining the entire time nobody is there because there isnt any banter, nobody to talk to etc. Oh and if you aren't consistent, or have to step away from it for a month or so once you managed to get a solid 10 consistent viewers, they just disappear when you come back. Rough life. Gl to everyone trying to make it out there.

      There is really no different what so ever. You turn on your stream, you do not look at viewer count AT ALL. You play as you would normaly do, and stuff will come. Having a program open is exactly the same thing as you do without it. People get to crancked up that there is no people watching that they lose motivation. But there is no point losing motivation because all you do is playing anyway.

    So how about waking up an hour early before a 13 hour work day to work on your stream so that you can have all 3 hours AFTER work to stream. Just to go to sleep, get 6 hours, work another nine, stream another 5, work on stream another hour, and repeat. Or did this guy have ALL the work done for him? It takes HOURS to learn OBS, green screens, and all of the technical things. Hours to setup social media, etc. Oh and also, chair/desk included, I bet this PC setup is $4500+. Yeah. Screw this video. EDIT: (Read comments below. This guy has worked SO hard and this video is not the best representation of the amount of work he has done. He has streamed for 330 days straight. Check him out on twitch! Nice guy.)

      StraightChillin90 huge respect to you for your effort. Unfortunately you’re massively ill informed. What this video doesn’t show is the amount of hours I put into get this off the ground. I lost someone close to me which made me realise how short life was and questioned what I wanted to do. I always wanted to do something with computer games so I set out to do this. Do you think there was an interview to be on this. I produced the original idea which was to do this over 6-12 months. These guys gave me an ultimatum of so it in 30 days or nothing. I chose this. This is 5 minutes of a 25 minute documentary they made and doesn’t cover half the story. Sometimes in life you have to make your own luck. I’ve since been streaming every day (currently 308/365) and I’m making my own documentary outlining how shit this one is

    I feel like everyone missed the point. Of course he had a backing because he established himself in another outlet before he started streaming (you should too). Of course he had tons of money in equipment, he gathered the means to get that equipment. (you can too, save money for 2 years like I did). This video isn't from level 0 to level 100. it's level 50 to level 100. just being in front of the camera and playing is like 35 - 40% of streaming. There is no get famous from level 0 in 1 month trick. You either have to be invested in your gaming skills or you invested in your advertisement skills which makes you not level 0 to begin with. If you have no clue what you're doing and you didn't invest your time and effort in anything yet, this is not the video for you.

Having worked as a camera assistant, runner and eventually spending 4 years learning the ropes in post production I decided a change of pace was needed. I killed 2 birds with one stone and set out on making a documentary about attempting to stream for a living. This idea went over 2 years before it got any ground, all the contacts that featured in this I had reached out to and confirmed them to be involved before any production company backed this. Last minute the guys that made this gave me an ultimatum of 'this needs to be done in 30 days or no documentary'. Imagine how gutted I was, this changed the whole natural feel of what I set out to do. You can't make/grow a fucking community in 30 days.
      I played the hand I was dealt and learnt so much about streaming and making content.

Chatting to amazing people I get to meet along the way is a a huge added bonus.
