5-Minute Crafts: The Channel
By: Ashlyn & BJ
5-minute crafts is a channel all about making, crafting, different trends, fixing things, hacks, and science. The channel was made on November 15, 2016. It was found immediately when the channel became a thing, and 5-minute craft subscribers started growing rapidly in 2017. With an age range of 18 - 29 recommended, many kids watch it. It may be because of the bright-colored theme and the easy steps to do fun activities.
The first video that 5-Minute Crafts created was titled, "5 essential DIY hacks that you need to know," and was released the day the channel was created. It currently has 486,436 views and it was about different life hacks for tools. One of them was breaking off a part of a cardboard cutter to make it sharper. These hacks were old, so they looked smarter than a lot of the videos that are newer. The channel has many different videos, like the main videos on their channel: 5-minute crafts. Some ‘hacks’ they do are sometimes considered 5-minute crafts. For example, the lady in the video flipped her spoon over to the
wrong side to scoop her cereal. In the video, she got frustrated. Then she had an idea to glue a spoon to the back of the original spoon so she could scoop her cereal. So, some of the videos on the channel are satire, but it confuses many people to believe that the 5-minute craft channel has a low IQ.
The most popular video on the channel is called, “33 THE MOST RELAXING IDEAS” Apparently people who watched the video loved the ASMR and the satisfying kinetic sand. The 4 key moments in the video were 1.) Cake decorating idea. 2.) Reverse videos. 3.) oddly satisfying videos. 4.) Kinetic Sand . Cutting Process. With the channel being based on videos relating to crafts and life hacks, styled in how-to formats, and occasionally science experiments, the satisfying video went viral. It was released on December 29, 2019. It was a long time ago when they posted it, but people are still watching it to this day because of its popularity.
5-Minute Crafts is about crafts, hacks, trends, and sometimes science experiments. There is another channel very similar to 5-minute crafts. They are called Troom Troom. Many YouTubers have reacted to Troom Troom’s videos, and let's just say the YouTubers decided to act negatively towards Troom Troom.
There is very weird clickbait on Troom Troom, like ‘beauty hacks’ or crafts, just like 5-minute crafts. Except, the 5-minute craft’s clickbait isn’t as detailed. This makes the reader want to click on Troom Troom’s videos because of the weird content. 5-minute crafts are still more popular than Troom Troom.
The Popularity Of POV’s
By: Kinsley & Natalie & Elena
Many people have heard of POV’s. POV’s are “point of view: used especially in describing a method of shooting a scene or film that expresses the attitude of the director or writer toward the material or of a character in a scene.” POV’s are popular on youtube, tik tok, ect. POV’s are popular because “Most TikToks only have 15 to 60 seconds to engage a viewer and maximize their reach on people's For You pages. That's a large part of why POVs are successful: they grab the viewer's attention by pulling them into the plot of the video.” POV’s engage the viewers in a short film. This short film may include characters from movies, T.V shows, and other youtubers/tik tokers ideas.
“The first-person POV can make for an intimate and effective narrative voice—almost as if the narrator is speaking directly to the reader, sharing something private. This is a good choice for a novel that is primarily character-driven, in which the individual’s personal state of mind and development are the main interests of the book.” POV’s help express yourself. Where other things may not be able to bring out a certain side of you. POV’s are a point of view that can be used to express the feelings, thoughts, motivations, and experiences of one or many. This is helpful to people that dont know how to express themselves.
The Youtuber and TikTok influencer Bailey Spinn is a popular person and here's why. Bailey Spinn is famous for doing her POVS, hanging out with Carter Kench, doing makeup and being a tik tok vlogger. Bailey is a 20 year old girl who has had a major glow up since 2015. She is now one of the most popular POV makers.
