Aaaaaaand tonight Matthew, we’re going to be…
Showing you some more videos. You must know the drill by now. Whether you’re in the tub, on the sofa, running away from your problems or crouching precariously on your roof you guys love watching YouTube and GOLLY so do we.
Here’s some of our favourites that we picked out just for you… (And one hundred points to your house if you got the outdated reference in the title.)
explaining mental illness to a three year old – j.a. sharpe
https://youtu.be/f3dQi9ztpbw
Jimi Sharpe, you cheeky YouTube grunger, you.
Jimi tackles the difficult task of explaining to his son what mental illness is and how it affects him. Forget flashy editing techniques and beautiful colour grading – vlogging can be as simple as sitting in the bath and explaining something to a camera.
A conversational and engaging video that really made our cold, grinchy hearts grow. (But we definitely didn’t cry. Nope, just got – uh, sand in our eyes… WE NEED A MOMENT.)
The Way He Looks – Gary C
YouTube royalty and loveable human being Gary C is back with a piece of pure, unadulterated art this week.
Pushing the boundaries of online video, Gary discusses a film he’d recently watched simply with audio and a blank space on screen.
He discusses our society’s obsession with aesthetics and a pretty face (although we think he’s just lovely either way) and attempts to subvert it with this video. Interesting and really pushing the form – we salute you Gaz. Can we call you Gaz? Anyway…
Doing something that makes me anxious – Nicola Golding
Seriously – our hearts are starting to bulge out of our chests here. DON’T YOU REALISE WE HAVE A SASSY EXTERIOR WE HAVE TO TRY AND MAINTAIN HERE AT TENEIGHTY HQ?!
*ahem* Sorry…
Nicola Golding is conquering her anxiety in this lovely, intimate video. She sits on a patch of grass; playing with it and enjoying her surroundings. She explains that grass is one of the causes for her anxiety and that she’s tackling it by indulging the urge to go outside and immerse herself in it.
Truly moving stuff. So much pride, we can’t even.
Letters to July 2015 | 12 by Gideon – Emily Diana Ruth
CATS NOW AS WELL?! We might just have to give up.
In this video from Emily Diana Ruth‘s cat Gideon, we learn about how July has treated the little kitty.
Yes, we’re not joking; a cat vlogging – DREAMS CAN COME TRUE.
We share a lot of mutual interests with Gideon; lying around, eating food and sleeping are some of our favourite pastimes too.
An Interview with PewDiePie – Emma Blackery
First things first, when is Emma going to be hosting her own talk show? Let’s get on that ASAP, please. K thnx.
In her latest video, Emma Blackery interviews YouTube legend Felix Kjellberg about his fame, YouTube and money. Give it a watch if you’re into juicy gossip and SCANDAL.
Still hungry for more?!
Dodie Clark hit our screens this week with a frankly just plain delightful new cover featuring a very special guest in the first 10 seconds: a dog, barking outside. It’s adorable and you should all watch it.
Since we’re already so full of love, hugs and unicorn farts we feel like we have to mention Bea Goddard‘s latest video of her meeting her online friend of over a year. Bring tissues, seriously.
We are pretty great, but we still make mistakes. If you think we’ve missed anyone don’t hesitate to tweet us with your suggestions @TenEightyUK or find us on Facebook TenEightyUK.
