hate creating internet
I hate auditioning; it makes me more nervous than anything ever, and I always feel like I wasted my time and I could have been creating my own thing. With the Internet, you have so much freedom that 'gatekeepers' make me terrified.
thinking common-threads role-models
I think if you ask people why they watch me, there would be some common thread among all of them that I'm somewhat of an awkward older sister. I have a teen, mostly female demographic. How that happened, I don't know. But I think they see me as some sort of bizarre role model, and I'll keep trying to do that for them.
school giving credit
I did six internships, even though I was only allowed to do one. I had a paper with my advisor's signature on it that I would just forward for every new internship. I didn't get school credit, but I got away with giving free labor to everyone.
video watches youtube
It's insanely difficult to ask an audience to go somewhere other than YouTube to watch videos.
years grace kind
After doing a total of five years of Daily Grace, you kind of get burned out on doing the same thing over and over again, so I am allowing myself to not have totally any specific structure.
real tv-shows taste
I have terrible taste in things: music, movies, TV shows. I love all the guilty pleasures: Bravo, Real Housewives.
pride television way
A lot of YouTubers, because they have such pride in what they do, have a negative connotation towards television. I don't feel that way. I feel like it's another medium to reach a broader audience.
real talking ideas
The Internet is a very intimate entertainment experience. I'm in my own apartment talking to people, and I want them to feel like they're with me in my apartment. So if I'm listening to them and taking ideas from them and being honest with how I'm feeling, it resonates even more that we're having a real, actual conversation.
opportunity
I can say for myself that I feel like I've gotten a ton of opportunities in the digital space and not a lot in the traditional space when I was first starting out.
thinking opportunity people
I think hard-working people have more opportunities no matter what on YouTube, regardless of gender.
people
There are no gatekeepers. So all the things we want people to cast us in, we can just make ourselves.
