| − | '''Stephen Georg''' is a YouTube content creator who runs several channels on YouTube, most notably [http://youtube.com/stephenvlog StephenVlog] and [http://youtube.com/stephenplays StephenPlays]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==About Stephen== |
||
| − | Stephen Georg was born March 20th, 1989, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. At age 12 he received a video camera and began to make silly home videos with his friends. In 2005 he began a website to host all of his video creations, and garnered attention from various news outlets, being written about by the Canadian press and even featured in video game magazine ''Electronic Gaming Monthly'' for his various works. |
||
| − | |||
| − | In 2007 he started college at SCAD, the Savannah College of Art and Design, in Savannah, Georgia. While in college he became "serious" about YouTube, starting StephenVlog (2009) and StephenPlays (2011). He graduated with honors from college with a BFA in Film and Television, focusing in video editing, in June 2011, and married his fiancé, [[Mallory]], two months later. They previously lived in Columbia, South Carolina. Stephen and Mallory then moved to Myrtle Beach in July of 2012. Creating content on YouTube is Stephen's full-time job. |

||
| − | |||
| − | ===History=== |
||
| − | Stephen had originally seen vlogs of people who sit in front of their computers and talk to the camera, and he thought it was terribly boring. In November 2009, however, he saw a few vlogs where people were leaving the house and not simply talking to webcams. He decided that once he went home for winter break that he would start "StephenVlog", and attempt to film his life for a living. |
||
| − | |||
| − | In his first video (Day Zero) Stephen explains that he doesn't know how long he'll be doing "vlogging" for. He has been doing it every day for over five years now. On Day 364, he received his YouTube partnership. There are now over 2,000 StephenVlog days (and counting). |

| − | |||
| − | ===History=== |
||
| − | Stephen's original exposure to [[Let's Play]]s were through Emile (Chuggaaconroy), a personal friend of his. They had met on ''Earthbound'' fansite Starmen.net in 2005, and always kept in touch. Emile would frequently bring projects and episodes to Stephen for critique before releasing them to the public, as Stephen was an experienced editor (later earning his BFA in editing). |
||
| − | |||
| − | In late 2010, after successfully vlogging for one year, Stephen decided he would start "StephenPlays", his own Let's Play channel, in February 2011. In September 2011 he joined The Game Station network. |
