00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,416
KODJO: At 9, since this last segment got a bit of the rails, we have of course a guest

2
00:00:03,416 --> 00:00:08,875
 and that is Anniefuchsia who is  super big on twitch and we are going to learn all about it

3
00:00:11,291 --> 00:00:15,125
KODJO: Finally guys, a warm welcome back to Morgonpasset i P3

4
00:00:16,375 --> 00:00:22,208
Todays guest is huge on twitch and has done it for a few years, right?!

5
00:00:22,416 --> 00:00:25,416
A: Yes, soon 4 years actually!
K: A few years(!)

6
00:00:26,291 --> 00:00:29,083
And we're going to learn everything there is to twitch and how, where and why. 

7
00:00:29,333 --> 00:00:31,208
A warm welcome to Morgonpasset i P3... 

8
00:00:31,208 --> 00:00:34,208
Anniefuchsia!

9
00:00:34,458 --> 00:00:36,750
(wierd noises monkaS)

10
00:00:36,750 --> 00:00:39,000
K: Hello hello
A: Hi... 

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Oh god, what a ~warm~ welcome

12
00:00:42,291 --> 00:00:45,041
K: Well that is the least we can do this sunday. How are you?

13
00:00:45,041 --> 00:00:49,250
A: I'm fine, it's really good! Thank you so much for letting me be here!

14
00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:52,916
KRISTINA: We are happy to have you here! We are going to learn everything about twitch and the whole world

15
00:00:52,916 --> 00:00:54,375
But first and foremost, I want to know...

16
00:00:54,375 --> 00:00:57,791
 How is your circadian rhythm? (day and night cycle) Are you alert in the mornings?

17
00:00:58,166 --> 00:00:59,750
A: Ehem

18
00:00:59,750 --> 00:01:03,541
What is a morning(?)  (swedish chuckle)
Because I haven't slept tonight

19
00:01:04,916 --> 00:01:08,166
So this is more late in the evening almost.

20
00:01:08,166 --> 00:01:11,166
K: Or maybe this is a dream? Maybe you are sleeping at home and came late to the show.

21
00:01:11,166 --> 00:01:13,625
A: That's true, I didn't think of that

22
00:01:13,625 --> 00:01:16,958
VICTOR: I went to bed at 1 o'clock tonight and I went to your stream first thinking

23
00:01:16,958 --> 00:01:21,166
'I wonder if she is streaming tonight or if she has went to bed in time to come to the radio'

24
00:01:21,166 --> 00:01:23,875
And there you where at 1 o'clock, fully immersed.

25
00:01:23,875 --> 00:01:28,208
'Ok she is not going to go to bed in atleast 2 hours because people where talking and stuff, it's nothing you can just drop'

26
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:31,708
'She is not going to sleep'
And you haven't!

27
00:01:31,708 --> 00:01:34,166
A: Nope. So I was going to sleep

28
00:01:34,625 --> 00:01:37,625
So I stopped streaming around 3-4 o'clock

29
00:01:38,083 --> 00:01:42,541
Which is a little bit earlier than I usually do on saturdays I thought: 'Ok I'm going to sleep 2-3 hours and 

30
00:01:42,666 --> 00:01:46,041
be a little more awake than I usual am around this time'

31
00:01:46,833 --> 00:01:51,833
And then I saw that Ninja, who is a very popular Fortnite streamer

32
00:01:51,875 --> 00:01:57,500
He had a special tournament and it was so much fun to watch it

33
00:01:57,500 --> 00:01:59,583
KODJO: Yeah, I saw that he was trending on twitter

34
00:01:59,583 --> 00:02:01,333
ANNIE: That he was training?

35
00:02:01,333 --> 00:02:03,666
KRISTINA & KODJO: No, trending!

36
00:02:03,666 --> 00:02:12,125
A: Ah yes, so he has some... I don't really know what happened, but it's some sort of tournament where

37
00:02:12,125 --> 00:02:15,125
people can compete with him

38
00:02:15,125 --> 00:02:18,958
and if they succeed in killing him in this game, Fortnite

39
00:02:18,958 --> 00:02:21,125
they would get 2500 dollars

40
00:02:22,708 --> 00:02:26,666
K: But, if we take it from the basics. What is twitch?

41
00:02:27,333 --> 00:02:28,875
A: Ok. 

42
00:02:28,875 --> 00:02:32,375
That is a very hard question to answer really because

43
00:02:32,375 --> 00:02:36,708
it is hard to explain to people that are not already invested in it...

44
00:02:36,708 --> 00:02:37,458
But I'll try-

45
00:02:37,458 --> 00:02:40,458
K: Then I'll ask this, what is not twitch?

46
00:02:42,083 --> 00:02:43,708
A: I'll try to take it from the beginning

47
00:02:43,958 --> 00:02:48,958
Twitch, I would say, is used primarly for "livestreaming" games.

48
00:02:48,958 --> 00:02:51,458
(JOKINGLY)
K: What is "livestreaming"?

49
00:02:51,458 --> 00:02:53,208
A: No, but really that is a good question

50
00:02:53,208 --> 00:02:55,583
So what is livestreaming?

51
00:02:55,750 --> 00:03:02,125
 Livestreaming is when you play videos in real-time, online...

52
00:03:02,458 --> 00:03:06,250
in my case I also have a webcam so people can also see me

53
00:03:06,708 --> 00:03:13,041
I have my game, it can be whatever game I'd like, for me it's mostly World Of Warcraft

54
00:03:13,666 --> 00:03:19,583
So I have my game up, so people can see it, then I have my webcam. People can hear and see me 

55
00:03:19,583 --> 00:03:20,875
Then I have a chat

56
00:03:21,250 --> 00:03:24,250
Anyone can use it

57
00:03:24,250 --> 00:03:27,041
Read. Participate

58
00:03:27,041 --> 00:03:28,208
You can write in it

59
00:03:29,291 --> 00:03:32,375
And I see it, live, while I'm playing

60
00:03:33,375 --> 00:03:35,958
KODJO: 'Isn't that annoying?'
KRISTINA: Multitasking on a high level!

61
00:03:36,541 --> 00:03:38,958
A: Yes imagine YouTube but...

62
00:03:38,958 --> 00:03:50,666
comments comes afterhand on youtube but imagine that you write a comment on youtube and then the person you are watching can answer to what you are writing.

63
00:03:50,666 --> 00:03:53,666
K: But, what I'm thinking of is
When I'm in a game

64
00:03:53,666 --> 00:03:56,666
And maybe sometimes my wife calls me in the middle of a  game (?)

65
00:03:56,833 --> 00:03:59,375
And you're just (answering blindly)

66
00:03:59,375 --> 00:04:01,500
and then the day after

67
00:04:01,541 --> 00:04:02,791
you're there going

68
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,375
- 'Where are we going?'
- "But you said yes yesterday"

69
00:04:05,708 --> 00:04:07,291
VICTOR: Exactly

70
00:04:08,250 --> 00:04:11,125
K: Oh well, we're leaving I guess

71
00:04:12,208 --> 00:04:15,041
Doesn't it come to a point where you can never immerse yourself in the game?

72
00:04:15,041 --> 00:04:17,125
A: That you can get distracted?
K: Yeah

73
00:04:17,125 --> 00:04:19,291
A: But imagine this: you are all the way immersed in your game

74
00:04:19,291 --> 00:04:21,375
K: All the way, ok I'm there

75
00:04:21,375 --> 00:04:24,041
A: And you manage to, for example if it is a shooter game

76
00:04:24,041 --> 00:04:27,875
You manage to kill someone, then your entire chat will go crazy

77
00:04:28,666 --> 00:04:30,541
'Did you see that??'

78
00:04:30,625 --> 00:04:33,625
And that gives you more energy 

79
00:04:33,875 --> 00:04:35,916
and it makes you have even more fun

80
00:04:35,916 --> 00:04:37,583
or well I feel that way atleast

81
00:04:37,583 --> 00:04:40,833
K: A bit like when you are playing with friends
A: Exactly

82
00:04:40,833 --> 00:04:44,583
Imagine you are at home, playing Playstation or whatever

83
00:04:44,875 --> 00:04:47,875
with a bunch of friends on the couch beside

84
00:04:47,875 --> 00:04:49,583
just cheering at you

85
00:04:49,583 --> 00:04:51,666
VICTOR: Don't you get performance anxiety? 

86
00:04:51,666 --> 00:04:54,666
Because I know that if people watch me doing stuff I'll do it much worse than if I would just do it alone

87
00:04:55,625 --> 00:04:58,625
A: Yeah. That can affect it sometimes

88
00:04:58,625 --> 00:04:59,333
Absolutely

89
00:04:59,583 --> 00:05:01,416
The more accustomed you are.

90
00:05:01,416 --> 00:05:04,416
the less stressed or nervous you'll get

91
00:05:05,041 --> 00:05:08,041
But absolutely, many feel like they play better without streaming

92
00:05:08,458 --> 00:05:11,458
V: How was it in the beginning? Because it must have been hard...

93
00:05:11,750 --> 00:05:15,833
I tried streaming and I think it's hard to be entertaining while I'm just...

94
00:05:15,833 --> 00:05:18,833
I have to much ego I think, I just want to play the game

95
00:05:18,833 --> 00:05:21,166
Not be there and be funny

96
00:05:21,166 --> 00:05:27,416
How did you learn to evaluate and manage it all?

97
00:05:28,166 --> 00:05:33,541
A: That has varied a lot, it's something I have learnt with time 

98
00:05:33,541 --> 00:05:35,958
I've found what fits me

99
00:05:35,958 --> 00:05:38,625
Because it's different for different people

100
00:05:38,750 --> 00:05:41,833
Some people use comedy and entertainment a lot

101
00:05:42,416 --> 00:05:45,625
And then there are some who focus more on the gameplay

102
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,000
Where you don't get as much chat reading, [etc]...

103
00:05:49,333 --> 00:05:52,875
So it varies, you have to find what suits you best...

104
00:05:53,666 --> 00:05:56,458
What you feel comfortable with

105
00:05:56,625 --> 00:05:59,625
KRISTINA: But how big is twitch in sweden?

106
00:05:59,791 --> 00:06:02,791
It feels like it has come here pretty recently

107
00:06:03,125 --> 00:06:04,625
A: Twitch is...

108
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:10,375
When you think about how few swedes there are in comparison with the rest of the world...

109
00:06:10,708 --> 00:06:13,166
We are actually well represented on twitch

110
00:06:13,458 --> 00:06:15,583
and online in general aswell, I mean

111
00:06:15,583 --> 00:06:20,125
everyone at home that has played online games have most likely meet swedes

112
00:06:20,291 --> 00:06:24,000
When I play(ed) World Of Warcraft I met swedes all the time

113
00:06:24,666 --> 00:06:29,541
and when you think about  few we are, it's pretty fascinating

114
00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:35,208
and you can feel the same thing on twitch so it's not a question of how big it is in sweden

115
00:06:35,375 --> 00:06:39,291
I think it's more that "gaming"

116
00:06:39,291 --> 00:06:42,291
Is not that mainstream
Not right now atleast

117
00:06:42,958 --> 00:06:45,958
So that is what makes many people not know what it is

118
00:06:46,208 --> 00:06:48,041
That there is so much games being done

119
00:06:49,833 --> 00:06:53,375
Are there other places to stream to when you are playing?

120
00:06:54,250 --> 00:06:58,166
A: There are other platforms, but they are not as big 

121
00:06:58,166 --> 00:06:59,750
K: And how did you discover this?

122
00:06:59,750 --> 00:07:02,875
A: Ehm, it was from friends and then..

123
00:07:02,875 --> 00:07:05,875
I played World Of Warcraft before I streamed

124
00:07:05,875 --> 00:07:10,583
And there were some tournaments I wanted to watch that happened to be on twitch.

125
00:07:11,291 --> 00:07:14,291
That's how I discovered part of it

126
00:07:14,583 --> 00:07:18,458
And then I've learnt most of it myself after I myself started streaming

127
00:07:18,583 --> 00:07:20,250
K: But when did that happen and why?

128
00:07:21,333 --> 00:07:25,791
A: I had just taken a break from my studies 

129
00:07:25,791 --> 00:07:28,750
KODJO: Me too!
I still have a spot though

130
00:07:29,208 --> 00:07:30,875
A: Yeah me too!

131
00:07:30,875 --> 00:07:32,375
four years later!

132
00:07:32,791 --> 00:07:37,333
So I took a break from my studies, I took a Master's in computers

133
00:07:38,083 --> 00:07:40,041
and did three out of five years

134
00:07:41,041 --> 00:07:43,708
I took my hiatus, didn't really know what to do

135
00:07:44,166 --> 00:07:46,458
I had interests in games and such

136
00:07:46,958 --> 00:07:49,666
and some asked me: 'Why not try streaming?'

137
00:07:50,291 --> 00:07:52,458
I tried it out, thought it was so much fun

138
00:07:52,458 --> 00:07:55,041
it was a hobby, didn't earn anything

139
00:07:55,666 --> 00:07:56,500
I....

140
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:57,166
I think it was...

141
00:07:57,791 --> 00:08:00,208
VICTOR: How was things in the beginning?

142
00:08:00,625 --> 00:08:03,625
A: How it felt?
V: Yeah everything! What did you do, what did you say...

143
00:08:03,625 --> 00:08:05,666
"Ok now I'm starting... Live!"

144
00:08:05,666 --> 00:08:06,416
What happened afterwards?

145
00:08:06,416 --> 00:08:07,583
A: I was really shy

146
00:08:08,250 --> 00:08:12,458
So I remember that sometimes I just stared at myself for ten minutes, thinking

147
00:08:13,708 --> 00:08:14,958
'I don't know about this...'

148
00:08:14,958 --> 00:08:17,958
KRISTINA: How did people find you? How do you get popular?

149
00:08:19,625 --> 00:08:20,416
A: It's complicated

150
00:08:20,416 --> 00:08:24,750
In the beginning it was friends in my groups

151
00:08:24,750 --> 00:08:31,375
So I played World Of Warcraft and we had groups where we  raided as it's called in the game

152
00:08:31,375 --> 00:08:34,375
KODJO: And that is what for those that don't know?

153
00:08:34,375 --> 00:08:39,000
ANNIE: To raid is when you go together with a group of friends and

154
00:08:39,375 --> 00:08:41,083
you...

155
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:42,750
walk...

156
00:08:43,500 --> 00:08:46,208
I'm trying to use common words but it's hard

157
00:08:46,208 --> 00:08:50,541
KODJO: Isn't it that there is a place, a so called "instance", right?

158
00:08:50,541 --> 00:08:51,083
A: Right

159
00:08:51,541 --> 00:08:55,375
So you are like five, ten, 20, 15 people... I don't really know the limit

160
00:08:56,250 --> 00:08:59,250
You go together and try to defeat this boss or place together like a group

161
00:09:00,583 --> 00:09:00,958
A: Exactly

162
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:02,791
K: And not have a Leroy Jenkins with you

163
00:09:02,916 --> 00:09:04,750
A: No, preferably not!

164
00:09:04,958 --> 00:09:07,958
You know your stuff!

165
00:09:08,416 --> 00:09:13,166
K: So that was what you used to do and record it

166
00:09:13,166 --> 00:09:20,791
A: Exactly, so because I was streaming, people knew about it and that is how I got my first (regular) viewers you could say

167
00:09:21,041 --> 00:09:24,208
And that way I entered the World Of Warcraft community 

168
00:09:24,375 --> 00:09:27,375
Started to get aquinted with other, bigger streamers

169
00:09:29,416 --> 00:09:37,166
which also helped me with "hosts", which is when you send your viewers to other streamers

170
00:09:38,750 --> 00:09:42,333
Things like that would make my name...

171
00:09:45,750 --> 00:09:46,583
be mentioned

172
00:09:46,708 --> 00:09:49,708
So people started to wonder, who is this?

173
00:09:50,041 --> 00:09:52,958
What does she do? Is she good at this or what?

174
00:09:53,875 --> 00:09:54,916
So that's how it started

175
00:09:54,916 --> 00:09:57,500
And now later it has just slowly and steady grown...

176
00:09:58,875 --> 00:09:59,625
I would say

177
00:09:59,875 --> 00:10:04,041
V: What happened when you started getting viewers that weren't friends?

178
00:10:04,166 --> 00:10:07,916
What happened then? Did you feel more pressured to talk more or...

179
00:10:08,583 --> 00:10:10,416
How did it progress from there?

180
00:10:10,625 --> 00:10:14,458
A: I feel like, even if my community grew

181
00:10:14,458 --> 00:10:18,958
I felt like it was still like a bunch of friends in a way

182
00:10:18,958 --> 00:10:21,250
So we still had a "close-knit" community

183
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,000
People cared about each other

184
00:10:26,416 --> 00:10:29,416
I had zero-tolerance with "bad" chat

185
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,000
I wanted to have people that are positive, kind to each other

186
00:10:33,250 --> 00:10:42,875
What I wanted to see, what made me the happiest was to see people find friends and do fun stuff

187
00:10:43,125 --> 00:10:47,375
I mean, one of the most special things I've seen is

188
00:10:47,375 --> 00:10:52,583
two member of the community that got to know each other, about 4 years ago, who are now engaged

189
00:10:52,583 --> 00:10:55,041
KRISTINA: What! Amazing!

190
00:10:55,041 --> 00:10:59,791
So they met thanks to my community. Those are the kinds of things I feel are extra special!

191
00:10:59,791 --> 00:11:00,958
VICTOR: It really is!

192
00:11:02,166 --> 00:11:09,166
KRISTINA: This may be a stupid question but can you compare this community to the subscription system youtube has?

193
00:11:10,041 --> 00:11:13,041
That you commit that everytime you start a Twitch

194
00:11:13,041 --> 00:11:13,333
(brain.exe has stopped working)

195
00:11:13,333 --> 00:11:14,208
[inaudible]

196
00:11:14,208 --> 00:11:17,208
A: Exactly

197
00:11:17,208 --> 00:11:21,125
On twitch it's called "following", so people that follow you 

198
00:11:22,125 --> 00:11:24,750
You follow the person and then you can see when the person goes live etc

199
00:11:25,208 --> 00:11:30,250
However there is also a subscription system aswell

200
00:11:31,416 --> 00:11:32,000
And...

201
00:11:32,416 --> 00:11:39,041
People can subscripe by paying 5 dollars per month

202
00:11:39,041 --> 00:11:42,041
And with that you get some extra perks

203
00:11:42,041 --> 00:11:43,750
KRISTRINA: Like what?

204
00:11:43,750 --> 00:11:48,666
A: I think the most popular perk most subscribe for

205
00:11:48,666 --> 00:11:51,666
is emotes, or emojis

206
00:11:52,500 --> 00:11:58,708
Each channel has their own personal emojis. So I can create my own emojis

207
00:11:58,708 --> 00:12:04,791
I have for example a theme of a drawn little red-haired girl...

208
00:12:05,583 --> 00:12:07,833
That is supposed to represent me

209
00:12:07,833 --> 00:12:18,500
So I have a "Hello" emote which is a picture of me waving, people that join the channel can use that to say hi

210
00:12:18,791 --> 00:12:22,291
I also have a "rage" emote

211
00:12:22,291 --> 00:12:30,041
IF I get angry at the game or something people can use that, but yeah, many different emotes

212
00:12:30,208 --> 00:12:34,291
And you can use these in my channel and every other channel on twitch

213
00:12:34,833 --> 00:12:40,666
KODJO: When did you make the transition from having this as something fun to do into something you now live off, because that is what you do now isn't it?

214
00:12:41,291 --> 00:12:42,708
A: Yeah I do

215
00:12:42,875 --> 00:12:46,833
I think I started to recieve money

216
00:12:47,375 --> 00:12:51,416
After about half a year, when I had become more popular

217
00:12:51,875 --> 00:12:58,041
I had gotten many connections with other bigger streamers and basically became friends with them

218
00:12:59,416 --> 00:13:03,500
That caused people to want to support me

219
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,375
And I decided then to be open to recieving donations, which is something I didn't do in the beginning...

220
00:13:08,875 --> 00:13:12,875
I didn't want to stream to earn money
Because it felt wrong...

221
00:13:12,875 --> 00:13:17,000
But when people wanted to support me in that way

222
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,000
I decided to try it out and see how it goes

223
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:23,166
In the beginning it was mostly small change

224
00:13:25,125 --> 00:13:28,916
To buy random things, fixing a better setup

225
00:13:29,083 --> 00:13:31,916
Better microphone...

226
00:13:31,916 --> 00:13:34,000
Better computer and things like that

227
00:13:34,166 --> 00:13:37,750
Then after about one and a half year

228
00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:41,916
That was when I could say that I could live off of this

229
00:13:41,916 --> 00:13:44,916
K: Yeah you came in on a helicopter so I'd said you are doing well(!) 

230
00:13:47,166 --> 00:13:50,166
K: You don't only stream games do you?

231
00:13:50,583 --> 00:13:52,708
A: No, you can stream other things aswell 

232
00:13:52,708 --> 00:13:57,666
I usually stream games but if I for example go to an event

233
00:13:58,500 --> 00:14:02,125
Like dreamhack, which is an event in sweden...

234
00:14:03,250 --> 00:14:06,791
If I go to an event like that I could stream "IRL"

235
00:14:06,791 --> 00:14:09,041
A: 'As you usually call it'
K: And what does that mean?

236
00:14:09,041 --> 00:14:12,041
A: And that is almost like vlogging, but live

237
00:14:12,041 --> 00:14:17,333
You have the camera in front of you and show what you do

238
00:14:17,625 --> 00:14:19,958
You can eat food

239
00:14:20,500 --> 00:14:23,083
Meet people and just say hi

240
00:14:23,083 --> 00:14:23,791
Whatever you like

241
00:14:23,791 --> 00:14:27,791
V: That is pretty new though right?
Because in the beginning twitch was all about games only

242
00:14:28,625 --> 00:14:31,625
A: Yeah, I think "IRL" came out maybe just a few years ago

243
00:14:31,791 --> 00:14:33,208
It didn't exist before

244
00:14:33,208 --> 00:14:35,000
KRISTINA: Do you always use english?

245
00:14:35,166 --> 00:14:36,000
A: Yes I do

246
00:14:36,083 --> 00:14:38,000
KRISTINA: That came natural to you I guess

247
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,208
A: Yeah it did. It works for me because

248
00:14:41,208 --> 00:14:42,708
I...

249
00:14:44,250 --> 00:14:50,791
I grew up in sweden, however, since I was 10 years old I went to an english school 

250
00:14:51,083 --> 00:14:53,166
So I'm very used to speaking english

251
00:14:53,166 --> 00:14:57,500
I have many friends that didn't even know swedish when I grew up

252
00:14:57,875 --> 00:15:00,875
So english is very easy for me

253
00:15:01,166 --> 00:15:03,958
KRISTINA: I understand.
You said that you where up all night

254
00:15:03,958 --> 00:15:06,416
Which I understand is a habit

255
00:15:06,416 --> 00:15:07,791
But do you decide

256
00:15:07,916 --> 00:15:11,750
Ok, these are my working hours, I'm going to sit down and get started?

257
00:15:12,125 --> 00:15:13,875
A: No not really...

258
00:15:13,875 --> 00:15:21,083
With time it has slowly but steady gotten later and later in the day

259
00:15:21,333 --> 00:15:25,250
In the beginning I streamed to two past midnight

260
00:15:25,250 --> 00:15:27,041
'Oh this is very late'

261
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:30,583
And then it became three past midnight, four, five

262
00:15:31,291 --> 00:15:34,291
I don't even know what the latest time I've done is

263
00:15:35,208 --> 00:15:37,750
I've done 24 hour streams also

264
00:15:37,750 --> 00:15:38,916
KRISTINA: Oh my god!

265
00:15:38,916 --> 00:15:41,916
KODJO: But when do you have off time, or when do you work?

266
00:15:42,833 --> 00:15:45,833
A: If we talk about schedules

267
00:15:46,875 --> 00:15:50,875
I say to people that I stream six days a week

268
00:15:50,875 --> 00:15:55,125
And I start around seven and eight pm

269
00:15:55,958 --> 00:16:02,541
And I have no "end-time" but I stream for as long as I want to or can manage to

270
00:16:03,041 --> 00:16:06,541
And that could be 3 pm or sometimes 6 in the morning

271
00:16:07,041 --> 00:16:09,000
K: When do you have holiday then? Do you ever go:


272
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,250
'Hey guys I'm going to Bali for 6 weeks see you all!'

273
00:16:11,833 --> 00:16:15,500
A: I mean I can take a holiday whenever I want to but..

274
00:16:16,041 --> 00:16:17,958
I don't want to!

275
00:16:19,208 --> 00:16:20,333
It's...

276
00:16:20,958 --> 00:16:24,916
First and foremost I think it is so much fun! So much that I don't want to go on holiday

277
00:16:24,916 --> 00:16:27,458
I mean I travel a lot

278
00:16:27,458 --> 00:16:30,458
Because there are a lot of events I want to visit

279
00:16:30,541 --> 00:16:32,666
for example I'm going to the USA, next week...

280
00:16:32,666 --> 00:16:34,833
No next month!

281
00:16:34,833 --> 00:16:36,625
And I'm going to be there for one month...

282
00:16:36,625 --> 00:16:38,000
No... For a week

283
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,083
K: Are you alright?!

284
00:16:41,625 --> 00:16:43,458
A: It's startin to show that I haven't slept right?

285
00:16:46,083 --> 00:16:50,708
(jokes about annies derp)

286
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:55,791
A: Ok. So I'm leaving in a month and staying for a week

287
00:16:55,791 --> 00:16:57,458
K: What are you doing there for a week?

288
00:16:57,458 --> 00:17:04,000
A: So it's an event, gaming convention, called "Dreamhack Austin" in Texas

289
00:17:04,583 --> 00:17:09,375
A: So I'm going to be there and meet other streamers, fans, people...

290
00:17:09,375 --> 00:17:11,083
Companies, and all those things

291
00:17:11,291 --> 00:17:14,958
VICTOR: But when did you get affiliated, I mean it's a affiliation type of thing with twitch right?

292
00:17:15,333 --> 00:17:19,333
It is not everyone that streams that get access to those kinds of events, is it?

293
00:17:19,666 --> 00:17:21,458
Or I mean get invited to them

294
00:17:21,583 --> 00:17:25,208
A: So this event is open to everyone

295
00:17:25,208 --> 00:17:30,416
However as a streamer you can get invited to stream there

296
00:17:30,791 --> 00:17:33,791
So that benefit exist

297
00:17:33,791 --> 00:17:35,708
But anyone can enter the convention itself

298
00:17:35,708 --> 00:17:39,458
V: But when did you reach that kind of famedom to get twitch clothes...

299
00:17:39,458 --> 00:17:43,916
 I mean you are essentially twitch now, you can be using twitch or you can BE twitch

300
00:17:43,916 --> 00:17:45,541
Almost like how PewDiePie is Youtube

301
00:17:46,583 --> 00:17:49,583
You can be on youtube but you can also be a youtuber

302
00:17:50,125 --> 00:17:52,125
A: Benefits and such?

303
00:17:52,125 --> 00:17:54,291
V: Yeah, just generally when did you become...

304
00:17:54,291 --> 00:17:57,583
When did you notice that now twitch actually want to see more of me?

305
00:17:59,333 --> 00:18:03,708
A: That was probably...
So I became twitch partner...

306
00:18:03,708 --> 00:18:09,708
I started streaming the summer of 2014 and became partner in december

307
00:18:09,708 --> 00:18:11,500
VICTOR: Fast you were!
KRISTINA: That went quickly!

308
00:18:12,208 --> 00:18:14,083
A: It went pretty quick actually

309
00:18:15,041 --> 00:18:17,208
Yes it went well for me, thankfully

310
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,041
It was so much fun, exciting and new for me aswell

311
00:18:21,041 --> 00:18:24,791
Because I didn't really know what it meant to become a partner

312
00:18:24,791 --> 00:18:27,958
I remember that I wasn't even prepared to have my own emojis for example

313
00:18:28,375 --> 00:18:35,000
Many of todays streamers that manage to become partners already have emotes prepared

314
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,583
'I'm going to use this emote!'

315
00:18:36,583 --> 00:18:38,083
But for me it was more like

316
00:18:38,083 --> 00:18:41,083
'I have emojis now what should I do?

317
00:18:41,416 --> 00:18:42,541
Which emojis do we want to use?'

318
00:18:42,916 --> 00:18:44,958
It was very much new to me

319
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:47,041
So I became partner back then and...

320
00:18:48,333 --> 00:18:57,208
For every event I went to I felt how I was more and more important

321
00:18:57,875 --> 00:19:01,208
And with important I mean that I recieved...

322
00:19:01,208 --> 00:19:04,875
I got to stream on-site and didn't have to struggle as much

323
00:19:04,875 --> 00:19:09,708
Before that I had tried to stream at different events but it was always hard to get a spot there

324
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,708
But it became easier to get a spot

325
00:19:11,708 --> 00:19:14,708
A: Easier to get access to stuff...
V: 'You got a name tag on the table'

326
00:19:14,958 --> 00:19:17,250
(JOKINGLY)
ANNIE: Name tag
KRISTINA: Own water bottle

327
00:19:17,250 --> 00:19:20,500
A: Meet and greets
Exactly own water bottle... Stuff like that

328
00:19:22,875 --> 00:19:38,500
PepoDance

329
00:19:39,208 --> 00:19:44,291
KRISTINA: Do you know who your followers are? Where are they from? How old are they?

330
00:19:44,291 --> 00:19:45,666
A: I think that...

331
00:19:45,666 --> 00:19:47,541
The age is...

332
00:19:47,833 --> 00:19:51,208
Most are probably between 18-25 I would say

333
00:19:51,666 --> 00:19:58,416
It's hard to talk about statistics really but I would guess that age

334
00:19:59,458 --> 00:20:04,750
But I've seen people that are younger than that and even older

335
00:20:06,583 --> 00:20:10,500
Then when it comes to countries...

336
00:20:11,916 --> 00:20:18,083
Sweden and USA are the two countries that are the most represented

337
00:20:18,375 --> 00:20:22,291
K: How many people usually watch a stream?

338
00:20:23,458 --> 00:20:25,125
A: So...

339
00:20:25,125 --> 00:20:26,208
K: Or how many follow?

340
00:20:26,916 --> 00:20:31,375
A: I have 129 thousand followers on twitch right now

341
00:20:31,375 --> 00:20:32,875
KODJO: Holy shitcakes! 

342
00:20:33,625 --> 00:20:34,625
A: On twitch that is. 

343
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,833
I don't have as large numbers but...

344
00:20:40,750 --> 00:20:44,166
Around 20 thousand followers on twitter

345
00:20:44,583 --> 00:20:46,458
KRISTINA: That is not a little

346
00:20:46,458 --> 00:20:48,000
A: Oh it is?
K: Yes it is!

347
00:20:48,500 --> 00:20:50,958
V: How many usually watch per run?

348
00:20:50,958 --> 00:20:53,125
A: That's hard to say because...

349
00:20:53,166 --> 00:20:56,375
On youtube you can see how many have clicked on a video...

350
00:20:56,666 --> 00:21:00,916
On twitch it's a bit different because there you can see how many are watching right now

351
00:21:01,250 --> 00:21:01,958
V: Right

352
00:21:02,250 --> 00:21:07,125
A: So it's how many live viewers you have that is the really the real measure for viewers

353
00:21:08,333 --> 00:21:14,250
For live viewers I usually have around 300 to 1000 viewers

354
00:21:14,958 --> 00:21:18,916
So it matters depending on what I'm doing, what game I'm playing, etc

355
00:21:19,708 --> 00:21:25,708
V: Because when I did my research on streaming, I checked stuff like what exists, what people do...

356
00:21:26,625 --> 00:21:32,833
What I noted, something that I thought was specific for you that made me wanna talk to you and see who you were and such

357
00:21:33,041 --> 00:21:36,083
Your community was so different from everyone else's

358
00:21:36,083 --> 00:21:37,708
First it had a good mood

359
00:21:37,708 --> 00:21:39,333
Which is something you don't often see

360
00:21:39,333 --> 00:21:40,625
And secondly you had...

361
00:21:40,625 --> 00:21:43,625
You were drinking a little and it was cozy...

362
00:21:44,333 --> 00:21:46,875
You knew peoples names, recognised people 

363
00:21:46,875 --> 00:21:48,875
Maybe many others do that aswell but still

364
00:21:48,875 --> 00:21:54,083
It felt much more friendly, I've seen some places where people are in the chat and completely ignore the stream you know

365
00:21:54,583 --> 00:21:56,208
It didn't feel the same way...

366
00:21:57,541 --> 00:21:59,625
It had another kind of feeling

367
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,666
A: Yes I would say that ever since I started streaming I've focused the most on "community"

368
00:22:07,458 --> 00:22:14,708
And with "community" comes knowing names, getting to know people

369
00:22:15,750 --> 00:22:18,750
Many of them I've actually met at different events

370
00:22:18,916 --> 00:22:20,666
Many have also met each other

371
00:22:21,041 --> 00:22:23,500
So it hangs around friendship...

372
00:22:24,208 --> 00:22:27,208
And sometimes even more than that

373
00:22:27,416 --> 00:22:30,750
One case especially that I have from 3-4 years ago

374
00:22:31,166 --> 00:22:34,708
A boy and a girl that met through my community

375
00:22:35,291 --> 00:22:36,458
And they are now engaged

376
00:22:36,458 --> 00:22:40,291
KODJO: Really?
Have you told them to give you their first-born or something?

377
00:22:41,791 --> 00:22:43,291
A: I will be the godmother!

378
00:22:46,291 --> 00:22:50,375
KRISTINA: We have received huge amounts of questions and I just have to take one of them

379
00:22:51,916 --> 00:22:54,916
Ji sundelin from instagram asks:

380
00:22:56,250 --> 00:23:03,166
Do you have a quick guide on how to stream yourself as a hobby gamer? It's lagging and the stream looks bad

381
00:23:05,750 --> 00:23:08,750
A: It can be because of wrong settings

382
00:23:08,750 --> 00:23:10,541
It could be your internet

383
00:23:11,041 --> 00:23:13,333
It could be different factors

384
00:23:15,416 --> 00:23:19,125
I would first check on your upload

385
00:23:19,708 --> 00:23:23,458
First make sure you have atleast 10Mbit/s in upload

386
00:23:23,458 --> 00:23:26,958
Because it's very important to have good internet because else it doesn't work

387
00:23:27,166 --> 00:23:32,458
Secondly I would say that you can look at quick guides on youtube

388
00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:37,708
That show how to setup your settings to make it work on your computer

389
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:41,250
And after that you'll have to feel your way around

390
00:23:42,125 --> 00:23:51,291
It's something I also had to do in the beginning, change settings back and forth to find what fitted best.

391
00:23:51,541 --> 00:23:56,125
So it can be hard but first I would check your internet, make sure you have enough upload

392
00:23:56,541 --> 00:23:57,791
KODJO: Emil has gotten in touch

393
00:23:57,791 --> 00:23:59,500
And says 'Happy Birthday'

394
00:24:01,708 --> 00:24:03,666
A: It's not my birthday today
(Don't listen to her)

395
00:24:03,666 --> 00:24:05,250
K: No?
A: No

396
00:24:06,375 --> 00:24:07,458
K: What is this about?

397
00:24:10,291 --> 00:24:14,958
A: So... We have memes on our channel

398
00:24:16,041 --> 00:24:20,000
Or jokes for people that don't know what memes are

399
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,666
K: Or what a joke is(!)

400
00:24:23,583 --> 00:24:27,500
A: Each day is my birthday

401
00:24:27,875 --> 00:24:30,875
K: Is that some sort of internal joke you do?

402
00:24:31,208 --> 00:24:32,500
A: Yes, it has come to that

403
00:24:32,500 --> 00:24:35,500
KRISTINA: How did that... Where does it come from?

404
00:24:36,791 --> 00:24:40,291
A: Ok, so about 3 years ago...

405
00:24:40,291 --> 00:24:42,458
This has been a thing for a long time now

406
00:24:42,666 --> 00:24:45,833
So if it was true I would probably be a thousand years old now

407
00:24:47,333 --> 00:24:53,458
 I had a mod in my channel that could change my title while I was streaming

408
00:24:54,666 --> 00:24:57,416
And he used to change it into:

409
00:24:57,416 --> 00:24:59,416
'It's my birtday today'

410
00:25:00,416 --> 00:25:02,416
'Say happy birthday to me!'

411
00:25:02,625 --> 00:25:04,708
And there I was playing

412
00:25:04,708 --> 00:25:08,708
And suddenly someone donates

413
00:25:08,958 --> 00:25:13,375
'OMG. Happy birthday! I hope you can buy yourself a nice birthday gift with this'

414
00:25:15,708 --> 00:25:18,708
What! No it's not my birthday!

415
00:25:19,125 --> 00:25:20,916
What made you think it's my birthday today?

416
00:25:21,875 --> 00:25:23,750
'But it says so in your title?'

417
00:25:24,583 --> 00:25:27,000
So that's how it started... People donated money...

418
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,916
I felt bad about it...

419
00:25:28,916 --> 00:25:31,500
People thought it was funny that I felt bad about it

420
00:25:31,500 --> 00:25:33,458
KODJO: You bought stuff with the money...

421
00:25:33,458 --> 00:25:36,458
KODJO: 'Continued feeling bad about it...'
KRISTINA: Came here in a helicopter...

422
00:25:37,708 --> 00:25:39,833
A: But yeah, now it has just gotten out of hand somehow

423
00:25:39,833 --> 00:25:41,250
Now they've reached you aswell!

424
00:25:41,541 --> 00:25:44,541
KRISTINA: How funny!

425
00:25:45,250 --> 00:25:48,250
A: Yeah. I mean my community is truly wonderful!

426
00:25:50,291 --> 00:25:53,125
K: Mormonia has written

427
00:25:53,125 --> 00:25:58,291
'Hi! Question to the guest: Are there any disadvantages to being on twitch? For example negative comments '

428
00:25:58,291 --> 00:26:00,708
K: A really interesting topic

429
00:26:02,083 --> 00:26:05,083
A: Yes, it is a really interesting topic...

430
00:26:05,291 --> 00:26:07,125
Many feel like it's distressing

431
00:26:07,125 --> 00:26:14,666
It can be bad comments, harassment even...

432
00:26:15,083 --> 00:26:21,208
Sometimes it can even get scary when people think it's super funny to...

433
00:26:21,791 --> 00:26:25,166
frighten you by saying they know where you live

434
00:26:26,250 --> 00:26:30,916
trying to spread personal information,  etc

435
00:26:31,208 --> 00:26:34,208
That happens, but...

436
00:26:35,250 --> 00:26:38,458
It happens in general everywhere on the internet, not only twitch

437
00:26:39,083 --> 00:26:44,083
what you can do as a streamer or just as someone on the internet

438
00:26:44,083 --> 00:26:46,583
Is to ignore and ban

439
00:26:46,875 --> 00:26:48,208
I would say

440
00:26:48,208 --> 00:26:51,208
You shouldn't listen when people say bad things

441
00:26:52,833 --> 00:26:56,583
And just focus on what is good, the positive stuff

442
00:26:56,583 --> 00:26:57,791
K: Don't feed the trolls

443
00:26:57,791 --> 00:26:58,875
A: Exactly

444
00:26:58,875 --> 00:27:01,458
K: But how does your free time look? Do you have any? Do you go to the cinema?

445
00:27:01,458 --> 00:27:03,333
Can you go out and eat dinner with friends?

446
00:27:04,208 --> 00:27:06,833
Do you sit in the park somedays and just sun bathe?

447
00:27:07,541 --> 00:27:10,416
A: I usually don't go out that much.

448
00:27:10,416 --> 00:27:12,458
I can if I want to

449
00:27:12,458 --> 00:27:14,291
But...

450
00:27:14,958 --> 00:27:16,000
I like to stream

451
00:27:16,833 --> 00:27:19,833
I like to play games

452
00:27:20,958 --> 00:27:23,958
So I feel happy with what I do

453
00:27:24,500 --> 00:27:29,833
And the fact that I travel a lot makes me, most of the time, feel tired and...

454
00:27:30,625 --> 00:27:32,250
I don't want to be outside that much

455
00:27:33,208 --> 00:27:33,916
That's how I feel

456
00:27:33,916 --> 00:27:35,750
V: Do you watch many streams yourself?

457
00:27:37,041 --> 00:27:40,208
A: Before I'm starting a stream and afterwards

458
00:27:40,208 --> 00:27:43,208
I usually tune in on some other streamers

459
00:27:43,208 --> 00:27:47,000
Especcially those streamers I would say are my friends

460
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:51,083
A: Who is currently the biggest?

461
00:27:51,625 --> 00:27:58,583
A: Right now i would say that ninja is the biggest...

462
00:27:59,208 --> 00:28:01,750
'The face of twitch'

463
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,375
He the biggest streamer right now, he is talked about a lot in mainstream media everywhere

464
00:28:07,750 --> 00:28:09,333
K: He earns quite a bit doesn't he?

465
00:28:09,333 --> 00:28:10,041
A: He?
K: He earns quite a bit

466
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,750
A: Yes, his channel has exploded!

467
00:28:13,750 --> 00:28:19,208
He was already a popular streamer

468
00:28:19,208 --> 00:28:23,708
But just this year his channel has exploded, completely

469
00:28:24,791 --> 00:28:30,041
And he is really, really good in the game he plays

470
00:28:30,041 --> 00:28:31,541
Which is called Fortnite

471
00:28:32,708 --> 00:28:35,708
So he has top-class gameplay

472
00:28:35,708 --> 00:28:38,750
In addition to being a entertainer aswell

473
00:28:39,875 --> 00:28:42,875
And that together with...

474
00:28:44,208 --> 00:28:47,625
Some good choices he has done

475
00:28:48,375 --> 00:28:54,208
Made him succeed very very well right now

476
00:28:54,416 --> 00:28:57,958
K: Who is your streaming idol? If you have any?

477
00:29:00,250 --> 00:29:01,916
A: That's a hard question...

478
00:29:04,583 --> 00:29:07,583
I would almost say that...

479
00:29:07,958 --> 00:29:12,500
The stream I have looked up to...

480
00:29:13,833 --> 00:29:16,416
For many years atleast...

481
00:29:16,666 --> 00:29:19,666
That would be Sodapoppin I believe

482
00:29:19,916 --> 00:29:24,708
Because I remember that I used to watch him when I barely knew what twitch was

483
00:29:24,708 --> 00:29:28,291
I thought he was completely crazy and funny

484
00:29:28,291 --> 00:29:31,500
And at the same time very good at World Of Warcraft which...

485
00:29:32,500 --> 00:29:35,500
Is one of my "main" games

486
00:29:37,375 --> 00:29:41,791
Yeah, after having met him many times

487
00:29:41,791 --> 00:29:43,833
We've talked many times as well

488
00:29:44,250 --> 00:29:49,583
When I take into consideration how mature and hard he works I think that

489
00:29:49,583 --> 00:29:52,583
He is the one I've looked up to the most

490
00:29:52,916 --> 00:29:58,166
V: It's really fun to watch. I remember when he was banned from World Of Warcraft now and then...

491
00:29:59,208 --> 00:30:04,708
It's pretty funny to see when he tries calling the support telling them it's really him and yes this happened...

492
00:30:04,750 --> 00:30:07,750
A: You've also seen that! It was really funny I think

493
00:30:08,041 --> 00:30:08,958
K: What are you doing today?

494
00:30:10,083 --> 00:30:12,166
A: I'm going to go home and sleep!

495
00:30:12,708 --> 00:30:15,458
K: Annie, thank you so much for visiting us today

496
00:30:15,458 --> 00:30:17,500
A: Thank you so much yourselves!
K: And I hope we'll hear from you again!
