I am Brianna Mizura and I make POV content type of like skits type of content kind of like comedy mixed with like a little bit of fantasy. Was there a point where you went like, "Hey, wait, this could actually be a job?" Yeah, honestly like in the past like past like 3 years I was like, "Okay, I think there's this is actually going somewhere, you know?" I love that. What are some of the challenges that you
faced in getting the channel off the ground? I would say first like the views for sure like it definitely took a while to like get like a good amount of views, you know, good amount of followers. It takes time, you know, it doesn't just happen usually doesn't just happen overnight. Was there anything you did to try to convert viewers into like subscribers into like fans, super fans? I would say probably I think I think really cuz
mine have like my I do like series so there's like part one, part two so people were always wanting to come back for the next part. So I think that's what kind of got everyone kind of hooked with my content. >> just want more. Yes, exactly. YouTube is watched a lot on television now. For a lot of people YouTube is television. Do you think about that at all? Like are you designing for TV now? Yeah, I'm
definitely trying to venture into more of like short films type of content like a little bit more like I I mean I always kind of structured my POVs in like kind of like a cinematic type of way but like I'm even more so leaning into that now with like I'm seeing more of like those vertical like movies on like TikTok and YouTube and stuff. So yeah, I'm kind of leaning into that more this year. >> Micro
dramas. Yeah, I think that's they'll they'll seem really fun. Where do you get your ideas? Like do you plan out the next five videos? Do you have a book with like a hundred different ideas in them? >> I kind of will get like ideas like honestly kind of randomly sometimes. Sometimes just from watching like a show and I'll just like kind of start brainstorming, you know, from that. >> know if you've been there, I definitely have,
where you have an idea that you know is going to be like a banger like a big hit but you just you don't like it very much versus an idea that you love that you're not sure anybody's going to watch. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sometimes yeah, exactly. Sometimes it's a little tricky knowing like what to post sometimes because like there is sometimes there's like videos where I think they're going to do so well and I've worked
so hard on them and then they flop and then it's like the one that I put the least effort into does so well, right? >> yeah. [laughter] Yeah. I think that's cuz for the audience like we sometimes think the production is the quality but for them the vibe is the quality. >> Yes, yes, yeah. How do you deal with it when a video that you've got like so much invested in doesn't do as well as you
hoped? >> Yeah, I mean I try I get I mean I don't I won't lie I get a little sad about it. I'm like dang like that was a lot of time I spent but then I just have to kind of move on and be like, "All right, well, they're not responding to this. Time to try something else, you know?" If there is like a a kid or or a person out there who's dreaming of being
a creator who wants to do like upload for the first time, what advice would you have for them? Um I would say honestly I mean just do make content that makes you happy that you'd like to watch cuz I I had like heard that if you can't watch your own content if you can't get through your own video, you know, no one else is going to want to watch it, you know? So make sure it's something
that you enjoy watching, you enjoy making and honestly as long as you're enjoying it like that's going to give you like the longevity to like keep going.
