“We have one on a front camera mounted to a desk and one on a crane. And then we also use the Micro Studio Camera because we have a studio environment where lighting and filming setups are really consistent. I’ve used that for a bulk of the main filming, the main talk-to-camera stuff and the action vloggy sort of stuff. Or you can just keep the settings large but still get a really crisp quality image for the encoders you’re using. You’re not paying as much as you would for a Red or an ARRI, and yet you’re getting cinema quality. It’s basically a cinema camera, but without the cost of it being a cinema camera. “We have a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, which we use as our ‘action’ camera. He also has much more equipment, and more complex projects, but he contends that “the core of it is the same, which is really about making content that’s engaging and organic and as fun as possible. Today, on the production side, he has a full-time videographer, production assistant, editor, and a part-time remote editor. When he started the channel, it was just Jazza, a webcam and a computer. It’s like putting a puzzle together because if you get it right, if you have the footage at the end of it, that’s really cool.”

Figuring out how to change dynamically with camera settings between low light and the normal light and all that stuff is really fun for me. “Today we filmed low-light, long-exposure photography,” he tells us. Jazza produces 2-3 videos per week for his main channel. Initially, the channel was about the art, about how to learn drawing, and over time, it become about me having fun with art.” I’ve really enjoyed becoming the main character, so to speak.
I have a bit of a theatre background, so as the platform changed, I’ve changed with it. “Initially I thought it was more about the tutorials, but YouTube has evolved into an entertainment platform.
I thought I’ll start a new channel called Draw with Jazza, and focus on the art. I realised that my art content had consistently good views. I had a bit of a following, but it wasn’t growing very much. I had an old channel with a bunch of different content, animations, videos, tutorials and game trailers, very random. I knew some animators who had gone over to YouTube and started making decent money if they were successful. I thought, ‘okay, there’s probably potential to do something on there. “This is 2012, and YouTube seemed to be growing and looked like a lot of fun. Then the flash platform, which Jazza had been using got on the wrong side of Apple and he had to re-evaluate. “I started off as an independent automator and game designer, self-employed, just doing content and games for the internet,” Jazza, real name Josiah Alan Brooks, tells us on the phone from his studio.
