  • Hey Quinlan

  • My name is JR.

  • I'm a YouTuber based in Taiwan, and my channel isJR Lee Radio.”

  • Remember to subscribe by the way.

  • I'm currently working here in Guam with your dad.

  • And I gotta say, even though dad is always dad

  • but your dad is awesome.

  • Like all the YouTubers here think your dad is really d*pe!

  • The visual reality stuff, 360 videos

  • Your dad is really something.

  • So I heard you're 9 years old and you wanna become a YouTuber.

  • Or should I say you already are one

  • 'cos you've been posting some stuff on the platform already, right?

  • I can't wait to see it!

  • So give me a link, I will check it out.

  • And as a YouTuber myself. I've been doing it for more than a year.

  • I've got 140k subscribers so far.

  • I gotta say that being a YouTuber is a privilege 'cos you got

  • people following you

  • and they look up to you.

  • They're expecting you to set an example for them.

  • They wanna talk like you. They wanna act like you.

  • They even wanna think like you.

  • So I think it's a lot of power

  • and a lot of responsibility, too.

  • And today I just wanna share with you

  • since you're so eager to become a YouTuber

  • or post YouTube videos... I'm so eager to share with you

  • the reality of YouTuber... so...

  • Here's my working schedule while I'm here in Guam.

  • I usually get up very early in the morning, before sunrise.

  • That's my morning ritual. I do it every single day.

  • And by 7 in the morning, we're at the restaurant getting breakfast.

  • And around 9 o'clock, we're a group of 20 to 25 people,

  • we group up and we set off on our journey

  • following our itinerary.

  • So we go shooting in different places

  • there and here... here and there...

  • We always using our GoPros, our DSLRs looking for some great stuff.

  • A-Roll, B-Roll, Live Streaming

  • And when we're not doing that... we're thinking of it.

  • We're plotting out the script, we're thinking of footage.

  • What we can use, what we can't.

  • How are we gonna cope with the weather, the situation.

  • So that's what it kind of looks like behind the camera.

  • It's a lot of work.

  • And usually around 9 or 10 at night,

  • we go back to our hotel, and we sort of wash up a bit, dress down

  • and we start editing

  • We categorize our files, and then we put it in our software

  • We start doing the editing stuff

  • and it goes throughout the night.

  • So usually when we go to bed it's around like 1 or 2 in the morning.

  • I'm not telling you you have to do the same

  • but it's hard work.

  • So if you think about it, it's actually a lot of effort that you have to put in to it.

  • It takes a lot of commitment and determination just like any other job.

  • Being a YouTuber is a great job, but there's also a price to pay.

  • So when you think of being a YouTuber or Taking it seriously,

  • there's a lot to put in to consideration.

  • So to conclude this, I would say that being a YouTuber

  • takes a lot of determination and commitment

  • especially if you wanna go long... if you wanna go for the long run...

  • you wanna really make it out there, be successful,

  • you want people to follow you, you want people to subscribe

  • and really take something away from your videos.

  • I think it takes a lot of work.

  • However, there is one thing that is even more important

  • and I think it's… something that I really really wanna share with you.

  • So just imagine yourself,

  • you have likeok… 140k subscribers like me right now

  • or maybe even more, when you get to a million

  • or maybe to Casey Neistat, how about that?

  • With so many subscribersthey are going to look up to you.

  • They are going to expect you to set an example form them.

  • To talk like you, act like you, dress like you,

  • think like you as we just mentioned.

  • And that is a lot of power for one person.

  • There is a specific movie that I do like a lot

  • and I bet you know it.

  • It's Spiderman. “The Amazing Spiderman

  • And the best line throughout the entire movie is

  • With great power comes great responsibility

  • Don't you think so?

  • So in some sense, big YouTubers

  • Maybe not like me, but people like Casey Neistat, Logan Paul

  • People like them.

  • They have this great power to influence other people.

  • So when you become like them, you gotta ask yourself this question,

  • What do you want people to take away from your stuff?”

  • What do you want people to be influenced by?”

  • So what kind of content you make decides that direction.

  • And that's what I'm trying to do here on my channel.

  • I'm trying to bring a positive impact to people

  • 'cos I believe that is a very valuable thing.

  • So I'm just saying

  • I'm glad to hear that you wanna become a YouTuber.

  • I think it's a great thing. It's a... you know… a big dream to achieve.

  • As I said, tell me your channel.

  • Leave your link right down there. I'll definitely check it out.

  • But this is just from me, from a YouTuber from Taiwan.

  • Some advice.

  • And that's about it.

  • Hope you do well in school as well.

  • And I with you the best, okay? Quinlan

  • One more thing, your dad is really d*pe!

Hey Quinlan
