The heat is still on for YouTube Fan Fest 2015! The one in Bangkok
just ended last week. Well, it was a fun and exciting moment meeting all the YouTube
stars and youtubers at YouTube Fan Fest 2015 Singapore two weeks ago. There
many performances, shows, fireside chats with the stars, meet & greets,
academies, educational workshops, press conferences, and also interview sessions
at SCAPE, Orchard Link.
We managed to catch the YouTube Fan Fest 2015 Singapore press
conference on Friday late noon after the HP launch. The room was rather cozy
with all the YouTube superstars such as Kurt Schneider (US), Tiffany Alvord
(US), Jason Chen (US), India Bakchod (IN), Bubzbeauty (HK), Macy Kate (US), The
Fung Brothers (US), Timothy DeLaGhetto (US), Wong Fu Productions (US), BBTran
(VT), Bie The Ska (TH), Gentle Bones (SG), Jakarta Beat Box (ID), JinnyBoyTV
(MY), Jianhao Tan (SG), Cheokboard Studios (SG), Benjamin Kheng (SG), Grizzle
Grind Crew (SG), Last Day Production (ID), Munah & Hirzi (SG), Naomi Neo
(SG), Night Owl Cinematics (SG), Noah Yap (SG), PaperbugTV (PH), Roseanne Tang
(SG), ShiGGa Shay (SG), The Sam Willows (SG), Tosh Rock (SG), Wahbanana (SG), YanKayKay
SG) and Yeah1TV (VT).
During the press conference and interview session, the YouTubers shared about the content quality, how they started, what drives them, how to convert youtube to mp3, and what were the obstacles that they encountered along the way, their ups and downs and etc. You can also check out ontiva. I have recorded some part of it, do check out my video during the YouTube FanFest 2015 press conference. There are so much to learn, create content is not only for our own satisfaction, we have to ask ourselves why and why people want to share our content?

| YouTube Academy with HP participants from MalaysiaTimothy Zarsadias, Alvin Lee, Alicia Tan, Ernest Ng |
Before I flew back to Kuala Lumpur I managed to interview four winners of YouTube Academy with HP from Malaysia. They are Alicia Tan Aan Li, Alvin Lee Le Shen, Ernest Ng Thye Sern, and Timothy Joshua Zarsadias. They joined the YouTube FanFest Academy with HP to gain more knowledge, skills, and exposure. At the same time, this is a great platform for them to meet more friends, YouTubers, and share their experience.
Basically, the YouTube Academy with HP is a 6-month program from May till October 2015 that will provide the participants with the skills and resources to bring their creativity into life. This is a platform for the young generation of creative talent in South East Asia (Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand) and Hong Kong creating and share their passion and inspiration to the world.
