Out of the many YouTubers that are active the site, the small YouTuber by the name of “frisk the-human-hybrid” happened to make her appearance. Her real name is Cora Cutkomp and she’s a senior here on campus who makes dubbed videos over popular comics. When she first started her YouTube channel Cutkomp said, “I just had so many favorite YouTubers that I watch that, [well] it looks so easy I just had to do it.” While she has had this YouTube channel for a few months she is still relatively new to YouTube and just hit 801 subscribers.
Not only does she have 801 subscribers but one of her videos has 122k views which is extremely high considering how many views on average she gets per video. However, her videos differ from time to time.
“Really, you don’t want it too long, I’ve done a 20 minute video plus I’ve seen others with hour long videos people don’t watch the whole thing. It needs to be a specific length because of the attention span for a lot of viewers. Some people have shorter attention spans than others,” Cutkomp said.
So, Cutkomp bases her videos off what her audience is as well as her own opinion so she can appeal to the masses when making them.
She has also yet to have a very specific uploading schedule for her viewers, but has tried to set almost guidelines for when uploads.
“I don’t really have one [an update schedule], I need to figure out one. I’m kind of thinking maybe two or three videos on the weekend,” Cutkomp said.
And while these uploads are clumped together she has to do them with her phone instead of her computer, ranging from video game uploads to the voice overs she usually does.
“I record using my phone. I go to a website called Roblox, and I play games, but I can record my screen. The players can chat with each other,” Cutkomp said.
So she uploads a variety of content as opposed to just a complete focus on one subject.
Along with everything she has done she has not started doing this entirely (voices for characters) until after she saw her favorite youtubers.
She had done it earlier in life as well, “I’ve actually, done a lot of stuff for voicing, like for class. Whenever we’d read a book with the whole class I’ll do the voices for the characters. I’ve always done that,” Cutkomp said.
So while she may have been inspired by her favorite YouTubers such as Markiplier, jacksepticeye, Pewdiepie, Popularmmos, Gaming with Jen, Supershadic50, and twilight, regardless she had done it before.
Nevertheless, frisk the-human-hybrid is one of the many YouTubers that uploads video on a weekly basis for her audience.
