| 0:00.0 | may are two totally different forms of content creation. And I do think that people watch each for |
| 0:08.6 | different reasons. I feel that short form is much more of entertainment or a really solid message |
| 0:19.0 | to get across in a short amount of time. And so you really have to hook |
| 0:24.6 | people very strongly. Hello everyone and welcome to this week's episode of the YouTube |
| 0:29.3 | Creators Hub podcast where each and every Friday, I sit down with a wonderful content creator |
| 0:34.5 | and I chat with them about their journey on the platform or as a |
| 0:39.2 | creator or influencer and I break down what's made them successful. We talk about their |
| 0:44.3 | strategies. We talk about their monetization options with their channel and their content. And we |
| 0:49.6 | just break down what it takes to be a creator. So if you're wanting a behind the scenes look of |

| 1:38.4 | spending the most time on your channel. And then probably the best bang for your buck in the whole |
| 1:43.5 | creator space is our |
