For those curious about the internet economy – this vid got 15M views here, 28M on TikTok, 30M on an IG meme account. But I didn’t make a penny from any of it! Luckily I can back it up with production skills when brands come knocking. But lots of views basically means nothing.

Point is – tell your teenage child that going ‘viral’ is useless 😂 I’m successful in this industry because I can bring a decade’s worth of experience to the table. I know how to storyboard an ad, pitch it to a client, I can deliver on time, etc, etc Get those skills first 👍

Doesn't mean nothing I showed my kids and they giggled and tried to turn themselves into a banana by falling face flat onto the sofa for atleast an hour.

So it works as a mechanism to advertise your skills. But…it would irk me if someone out there was making money off the back of it
