You Tube Power User: Morbeck

26 08 2006

I interviewed Morbeck, the producer of one of the top 20 most subscribed to channels on You Tube. His content is funny, sexual and surprising. He published this video yesterday, viewed over 40,000 times in the last 24 hours.

Q&Q: Why did you start video blogging?
MORBECK: My first attempt at video blogging was a spoof of a famous youtuber. Everyone seemed to enjoy it so I kept going until I came up with my own characters.

Q&Q: Why do you use You Tube as your video blogging platform?
MORBECK: I decided to post videos on youtube because i saw the potential it had since the beginning and noticed how the videos can reach such a wide audience.

Q&Q: What’s your favorite vblog entry that you’ve produced?
MORBECK: My favorite vblog is a tribute to all videobloggers. I can be found at this url http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCzIIERHZKw

Q&Q: What other video bloggers do you follow?
MORBECK: I follow filthywhore, littleloca, bowiechick, therealnewsguy and other random ones that i see on the most discussed list.

Q&Q: Your video blog is one of top 40 most popular on You Tube. Why?
MORBECK: One of the reasons I got to the top 40 is because I try to come up with original content that is also entertaining. I set up a little studio in my bedroom for chroma key effects and people seem to be enjoying my creations so they keep coming back and telling their friends about me.

Q&Q: How do you feel about name brands (Paris Hilton, Nike, etc) using You Tube to distribute their commercials?
MORBECK: I dont mind that big celebrities use youtube as a resource as well. Although im glad that even though Paris Hilton is on the first page she doesnt have as many subscribers as me yet. This means the youtube community is here to watch everyday people that have something to offer besides mainstream entertainment.

Q&Q: If a company like Adidas, Pepsi or Puma wanted to sponsor your channel, would you accept payment in exchange for promoting them?
MORBECK: Yes I would accept it because I would be able to keep doing what I enjoy and still deliver what my fans expect of me.
