While many YouTubers have suffered burnout, David Dobrikhas continues to create consistent content, and there appears to be no signs of slowing down
David Dobrik accepts the award for favorite social star at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, March 23, 2019, at the Galen Center in Los Angeles. , David Dobrik is one of the most popular vloggers on the planet. He got his start on Vine, and then transitioned to YouTube, starting his channel in 2016. In just three short years, Dobrik has become one of the biggest vloggers on the platform.
He moved to LA with three friends and they struggled to survive in the beginning. Dobrik remembers, “We were at the grocery store and buying peanut butter and bread, and other groceries, and the total came to $25. I looked at my friend and said, ‘I don’t know if we can do this.’ And he was very confident in the beginning but he said, ‘I had no idea it was going to be like this.’ It was just this moment of panic. I just remember how scared we were.
Around this time Vine was going away, so all the influencers jumped over to YouTube. The big Viners were doing huge productions and renting sets, but David took a different approach. Dobrik said, “I met Liza Koshy around that time and she was filming a vlog and I really liked that it was a small camera and you could just record your whole day. That was so cool! I filmed my first vlog and I think it worked because I wasn’t trying to make it work. I was just doing it for my own enjoyment.
The podcast is a way to diversify. Dobrik said, “I want to be a late night host and the podcast is a way for me to do longer form interviews and to get better at interviewing.”
