For my pitch, I have decided to create a YouTube channel where I discuss video games, as well as gaming news and events. When discussing a specific game in a video, I plan to use footage of the gameplay and cutscenes to emphasise better the points that I’m trying to make. However, due to time […]

Lani’s A Blogger Now
