My daughter wants to play her video games on YouTube and get paid. How do I help her?
I haven't played games on livestreams per say. She'd probably do better on a site called Twitch.tv rather than YouTube.
Are you saying she wants to upload game play videos on YouTube or play games live on YouTube?
All she has to do is record her game play and upload onto YouTube. Copyright may be an issue though. People who upload gameplay but don't run into copyright issues are because they are partnered with a corporation that takes a cut of their ad revenue and makes deals with corporations so they don't report their videos.
If that makes sense.
As for the equipment she'll need check out these videos:
How old is your daughter? Tell her to look these things up and find out the info for herself. I was doing this and editing my own videos at 12. This way the whole process will come to her more quickly and naturally. As for anything she may need to buy, she can go to you for them.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
