How Much of the Real You is On Camera? - Jackson Bird

This past December, 52 creators met at the YouTube Space NY for the first ever Global Creator Camp. During the camp, creators had the opportunity to present to their peers on a topic of their choice. In this video, Jackson Bird discusses his experience coming out as transgender on his channel, and the challenges and responsibilities he's faced since. Check out Jackson's Creator Talk where he shares what he's learned about authenticity, privacy, and sharing the real you on camera.

This is true, I would make beauty videos that don’t include my personality but when I would make food videos, I showed my personality and people loved them! You gotta be yourself!

YouTube is getting rid of all the small channels. I have been on YouTube for 6 years, and I get this.

"Under the new eligibility requirements announced today, your YouTube channel, GRAND HIT, is no longer eligible for monetization because it doesn’t meet the new threshold of 4, 000 hours of watch time within the past 12 months and 1, 000 subscribers. As a result, your channel will lose access to all monetization tools and features associated with the YouTube Partner Program on February 20, 2018, unless you surpass this threshold in the next 30 days. Accordingly, this email serves as 30 days notice that your YouTube Partner Program terms are terminated."

Thank You, YouTube.

That was awesome. Great speaker and talked about an important topic. Takes guts to be able to reveal something personal about yourself, but it was something that was important and that was making him miserable that he needed to change. Couldn't tell you were previously a female. Keep going and all the best :)
