Do you notice that so many people are into content creation these days? Everyone is always filming something and posting it in hopes of gaining views, likes and followers. Once they have enough audience, they can start earning from their page and this is what is their biggest motivator. There are people who have day jobs that don't pay enough so they try their luck in content creation.
Now, I am seeing many more kids just get into it right away instead of trying to find other traditional jobs. The older generation do not even consider this a real job. But do you think, as lucrative the industry is, will it survive? Will it continue to be a good source of income? If you are struggling financially, have you ever considered content creation? Does content creation offer anything to the economy?
I recently visited my nephew, who is still a small child, but already watches children's content on YouTube, and I was shocked by the quality that these children's bloggers make.
It seems to me that this is the easiest job in the world - just making faces at the camera, and also inserting samples with effects, but all the content that I have seen is of such low quality that these bloggers can’t even cope with this simple task, because of which their videos do not develop small children, but rather, on the contrary, make them very emotional and whiny.
It is too easy to think that all the content that is made on children is non-disturbing by the fact that they are coloured and the characters are smiling. I myself have found it strange how the exaggerated expression, high vocality and odd speech patterns are used as a form of entertainment to the child who is still developing his way of thought. It is not strange that you are surprised as many of the videos that you observe are not those created by people who know children. They care only about audience, and the high quality of the content does not matter. It is necessary to keep in mind that little children do not possess our filters, and thus everything that they see has a direct effect on their actions. It is because of this reason that we should learn to stay in the present and not allow our devices to take our places as we grow.
