Read and translate: Interview YouTube UK: 3 of Britain's most popular online video bloggers Britain may be a small country, but it’s home to many of the top YouTube stars in the world. With content like gaming, music, comedy sketches, beauty, and more, the top British YouTubers have a little something for everyone. Check out what these top vloggers and video creators have to offer. 1 NINEBRASSMONKEYS BENJAMIN COOK Stats 106,000 subscribers, 1.7m views Who is he? The 30-year-old Cook only posted his first YouTube video on his Ninebrassmonkeys channel in December last year, but his multi-part documentary series, Becoming YouTube, has already become a sensation. Featuring interviews with many of the individuals in this list – Charlie McDonnell, Alex Day and so on – it entertainingly captures the spirit of the movement. "The first YouTuber I discovered was a guy called crabstickz and it was just a whole treasure trove of awesome," he says. Pitch The official chronicler of Britain's YouTube generation. His style owes a debt to Charlie Brooker, but this is intelligent and professional film-making. His project will ultimately amount to 12 episodes and more than three hours of video content. Signature video Anatomy of a YouTuber, Cook's debut video, breaks most of the golden rules of YouTube. It is 15 minutes long and doesn't prominently feature cats or explosions. The fact it has been watched almost 350,000 times could hint at an ambitious new era for the platform. He says: "You make YouTube videos, you put them out there and suddenly you realise 300,000 people have watched something you've made. If you think about that too much, you'd go crazy. But a lot of people are stopping and saying, 'People do watch this stuff.' And that adds a lot of pressure on you." 2 SHIRLEYBENIANG SHIRLEY B ENIANG Stats 190,000 subscribers; 11.1m views Who is she? A 23-year-old maths student from London whose dream is to become a pilot or an aeronautical engineer. For now, Eniang is one of the most popular beauty and style vloggers. Her tutorials, which started in 2009, might include tips on how to apply false eyelashes, four different ways of wearing skinny jeans or advice on styling "cute milkmaid braids for spring". Her philosophy is: "Allow your true beauty to shine from within." Pitch A style maven for fashion-obsessed teens. Signature video Almost half-a-million have now watched her 20-minute video called How to Make a Pleated Chiffon Skirt!. The advice is easy to follow and Eniang has diligently answered viewers' questions. She says: "You forget you are a public figure and people are sizing you up from top to toe. They are going to point out all your flaws. Coming to terms with that was a big challenge, but I finally did because I realised I can't change what people think of me. If they like it, they like it; if they don't, they don't." 3 SLOMOZOVO CHRISTOPHER BINGHAM Stats 133,000 subscribers, 8.8m views Who is he? A 22-year-old performer who's been making short comedy sketches on YouTube for four years. Often works with Thomas Ridgewell (TomSka); they are both alumni of the well-regarded School of Media at Lincoln University. "I went to the place where Tom was going so that we could keep working together," he says. "I'm glad because no one else would have worked with me." Pitch Surreal, inventive comedy often delivered in strange accents, with lots of shouting. He has a gift for coming up with odd T-shirt slogans that are likely to bemuse anyone over the age of 20, for example: "I'm Trying to Romance You". Signature video A gothic piece called The Bothering, also featuring his sister (ThatJennyBee). A "top comment" on his work is: "This is more quotable than Anchorman". He says: "One thing that boggled my mind when I was a student was that no one else seemed to be making videos for YouTube. It seemed like such an obvious thing to me: you have access to this potentially global audience, maybe money and the chance to practise and get feedback. Yet me and Tom were the only ones doing it. And because we did, we had jobs by the time we graduated, and we didn't have to climb the ladder in the traditional way." Выполнение грамм. упражнений по данной теме (модальные глаголы) Голубев А.
