Don't Stay in Flock of Sheep - Amuloju Srikar

1. Tell us about your background and journey. 

My background was started with a commercial shoutout instagram page... just it was a crazy and like to make timepass, in my 3rd year btech. Later on it gained more followers, then after I started a meme content on my college in it, then it gained more reach also and after 4th yr when I left my college, I changed its name and content also, to promote my GODAVARI side and entertain my both GODAVARI DISTRICTS people... And then after it was disabled recently by a copyright content... It's not only a small thing it was a big mistake in my life and I was totally in dippressed.

2. When did you first decide that you wanted to create content and how did you start?

Actually, the content which u like to ask that was about only on directing short films and etc... But I started with meme content page that was a different context in my life because it is only for timepass... In the ending of my 3rd year B.Tech I just  decided to start a YouTube channel... But unfortunately it wasn't happened... I think this corona time is most valuable time for me to start concept comedy contents... But later on I'll definitely change to a message or with commercial element contents from this comedy skits... Because I wanna be a film maker as possible as earlier

3. Is vlogging and YouTube content creation a financially sustainable career? 

Definitely NO, because now the YouTube is far differ than earlier days by increasing 4000 hrs watch time and also with 1000 subscribers... And it's a rumour I think, in future it may be increased to 10000 hrs watch time and 5000 subscribers. Now a days YouTube content producers are more in advance to promote their channels by digital marketing process methods and etc, but low budget people can't surviving in this vlogging or YouTube content... Some people are going in loss also...

4. Who is your favoutite creater and why? 

Actually there are nobody but now I'm taking so many for only refference.... I wanna come with my content or idealogy only, but showing my content or concept, I'm taking so many creator's refferences

5. How and where do you find inspiration to churn out content? 

Literally, I'm a big patriotic person, and don't know anybody abou this. My ideologies or any other inspirations u r asking about was only by seeing so many negativity causes in our country based only on it. When I went to my successful career then I'll churn my content. Now I will continue with only creative commercial elements only

6. What does your typical day look like?

By earning so much of money by eating and sleeping actually I'm a biggest laziest person by keeping or adjust my life to settle in big position.

7. Which is your favourite book and why?

Sorry actually I hate to read books that's why I have more backlogs in my b.Tech ... I wanna learn in practically more. If I want to know about any content regarding to my career I watch videos or I'll go through practically by doing that.

8. What piece of advice would you like to give to future and aspiring creaters?

Don't loss hope, try more and creative. What ever u may like. Basically don't die in bloody middle class, be rich and earn more. Don't follow money, follow your passion, then after money will definitely follows you.
