Introduction: Hi, my name is Nick and most of you know me as Spiderjel or Nick1pillow. I am new to Youtube and would like to get support on my channel. But I also would like to be an entertainer when I grow up and Youtube is helping me one step at a time. Also with people watching my video it will give me a purpose in life to try and stop being such a toxic person. Now I know some people will say otherwise but I think that I have matured and would like a second chance.

‌•Content- Now my content consists of games that are new or fun old indie games everyone likes. I also take recommendations on games but might not be able to buy and play every single one due to me not having a job or money yet. But my content is just what ever I feel is cool or fun and will listen to guys also.

‌•Dedication- Now my schedule is relatively open but school might get in the way times but I usually have nothing go on. If i got Media I would try to post once a week. But like I said it may not happen always.

‌•Cringe- Now I like as much cringe as I can get. The more the better. I do like to have more then just me playing so if you want to join me in a recording just ask and don't be rude or toxic. Like I said I also take game recommendations.
‌
‌•Why not? - I mean to be honest this would be a lot of fun for me and I think it would be great for you guys also. So I hope you guys will allow me to get accepted.

Why should you be on our Media team? I should be on the team to entertain people and to advertise the server. Having me as a person on the meep team might boost the servers player count by a few and have them stay for a while. I know this is short but that's all I have for this.

What is the main platform that players can go and publicly view your content on, and what is your typical content comprised of? Youtube and Twitch and just random games!

btw my bad on the xx thing

 

Can the title be changed to Media Application? @CluelessKlutz

I got a little mislead

 

Fixed. I'd like to mention the error with that is in no way @Nick1pillow2525 's fault. This application was filed with the proper format,

 

+1
- nice and friendly !
- they really NEED you on the team
- and idk

 

I’d have to say -1 currently. With your videos you put a minuscule amount of effort into them. The only thing that might have effort into it is the intro for your channel. I never see you online and you seem to enjoy being banned if I can recal that correctly.

 

There supposed to be cringy with little to no effort of editing but i can edit. And i used to enjoy it sorta but I have changed like I said in my app

Thx

 

Its gonna have to be a -1 from me, sorry dude. I heard you talking last night about how you'd make two videos quickly and then you would be good, it kinda shows that you have not spent much time/effort into editing videos. I'd like to have seen a little more effort put in, good luck though!

 

+/- situational from me.
there is currently only one media and last time I checked (today) pmx has not uploaded in 4 months, if you can make a pledge to upload frequently and make high quality content than I give a +1
if not than -1

 

But your videos only use a texture pack and you’re showing no editing whatsoever. Editing is quintessential to making a video look good which you’ve showed nothing of the sorts.

 

I agree. Having OBS doesn't make you a godlike youtuber. Look at big channels with large sub bases. Right now the only minecraft youtuber I watch is Mumbo Jumbo, since his episodes are crisply edited, have smooth transitions, and flow very well. Your video was very lazy, and altogether too short. I'd recommend getting some good editing skills, maybe watch a couple tutorials, and take some form of improvisation class (improv comedy paired with minecraft gameplay is key to success)
it's a big fat -1 from me right now though.

 

Shouldn't introductions be telling us about you, i.e your after school activities, and what you do

This should all go in your why section tbh. Media on Meep means promoting our server and minecraft in a good way, professionally edited videos with effort put into them, not cringe wrapped in scotch tape if you catch my drift. Any how, I am going to be a -1 for you Nick, sorry :/

 

One of the largest problems this community has at the moment is this meme/cringe popularity which drives away older players who are able to help keep the server running through purchases and when applying for media the last thing I want to see is ''There supposed to be cringy with little to no effort of editing''

To list a few problems that I currently see is creativeness, professionalism and following.

Creativeness
When players apply for the media rank you need to show what you bring to the team with your own flair, everyone has their own way of doing things and for an application you need to stand out from other people. From what you have show us is that you are able to put on a shaderpack and walk around mumbling, anyone can apply for media if that's all it takes.

Professionalism
I understand this is a game and you can joke around but with the videos provided you do not grasp the attention of the viewers because all you say is ''here's this'' ''they have the parkour'' ''meeps got the stuff''. Which results in me thinking why on earth do I want to go to a server that represents itself like this. The videos were not planned thoroughly and of a sub-par quality which is part of the professional mindset you need to have in order for this role.

Following
To take on a Youtuber like yourself the main way you will get your videos seen is by putting them on the Meepcraft channel but with what's provided videos such as this will not be upload to the Meepcraft channel. Where it currently stands for someone with 20 subscribers to create videos on their channel is not going to bring many players to Meepcraft at this stage you will get Meepers viewing them to which no one seems to enjoy them right now at the low playerbase we currently have.

These are a few key factors you need to have in order to join the Media team, if you continue to improve on your productions and choose to apply in the future we hope for all the best!
