A 15 year old boy creating youtube videos. Looking at his youtube channel, it was obvious that he was popular. He had videos ranging from 100,000 views to over 3,000,000. While I watched his videos, I noticed his sleek editing and clever scripting, he was clearly talented. But it made me think. What sort of judgement does a 15 year old have? I know when I was 15, I said and did many things that went ‘too far’. I think my judgement has improved since then, with the guidance of my parents. Whenever I would make a video, I would show my Mum, because if there was anyone that would tell me ‘ it went to far ‘ or ‘ it was not funny ‘ it was my Mum.

Today, vlogger supermac18 created a video called ‘the swine flu’. I watched it and didn’t find it very funny, but I did feel sorry for Mac. It was clearly just a case of poor judgement, and now, his poor judgement will be seen by hundreds of thousands of people online.

The video:

He updated his twitter saying ” wow everyone hates my new video. im upset. ”

The issue here isn’t whether the video is funny. The issue is that a 15 year old can make a video about anything, with no boundaries and put it online for the world to see. Its great that kids make videos and express themselves, but I think its a good idea that before it goes online, that a trusted family member ( with good judgement ) sees it.

What do you think?

If people watch it and enjoy it, I will edit up some of the other events filmed during 08.
The footage was going to be for a year 12 DVD that i was making, but Hallam ended up saying no to it, like they said no to the hoodies!

I wish everyone the best in 09!
