I know you wouldn't normally hear from me on a Saturday, but it's been a heck of a week!
This week, I had the privilege of attending VidSummit to deliver a talk about YouTube Scriptwriting and AI.
My talk was the very last of the entire conference, and considering the fatigue I was experiencing by that point, I was not expecting the turnout we got - somewhere in the region of 150 folks.
And it struck me - back in 2022, I was writing this newsletter to fewer people than that for months.
So to have the opportunity to speak to such an incredible group LIVE is making me teary eyed even as I write this!
Not only that, but I lost count of the number of you that I was fortunate enough to meet before and after the talk.
Newsletter readers, students, and even past clients - I will never take it for granted that (in our little pocket of the internet world) there are so many kind people that I've been able to connect with thanks to writing this newsletter.
From handshakes, to hugs, to sharing a few too many drinks on the final night... I'm honoured to have spent these few days with you 🫡
But let me say, regardless of whether you were able to attend VidSummit this year...
...the fact that you're reading this now - and the fact that you've ever opened one of my emails - is the reason that VidSummit were crazy enough to let me talk in the first place 😂
So thank you for your support! I'll endeavour to pay it back as many times as I can between now and next year with these emails.
That's all for this week.
Any questions? You can to reply to this email and I'll get back to you.
Speak soon,
George 👋
