Contacting "Youtubers"

Throughout today's lesson I found a wide range of people on youtube that have accounts that are purely dedicated to gaming. These accounts consist of game walkthroughs, reviews and general discussion about video games. The videos that the accounts post gain thousands of views making them an ideal person to interview due to their success on the internet. Yet whilst the "Youtubers" are popular on the internet, they are not experts when it comes to the topic. Therefore I feel it is very important to stress the popularity of their videos when mentioning them in the documentary, and not refer to them as any sort of expert. So I sent a message to a range of accounts stressing our situation as students trying to make a documentary about the conroversial topic of video games and anti social behaviour. Here is the message I sent:

Hi,

Our college group are currently creating a documentary based on the controversial topic of video games. We are answering the question "Do video games influence anti social behaviour?" and we would find it very helpful if we could interview you about the topic. We feel that your enthusiasm in gaming and success online would make you an ideal person to interview. If you could contact me via email: dickinson.scott8@googlemail.com and arrange a Skype or video chat call it would be very helpful in helping us achieve high marks.

Thanks for your time,


Scott

I hope to receive a message back soon in order to organise a video call that can be recorded and put into our documentary. I feel that their opinion on the matter will be very helpful to us.
