It's been a little while since I did a Q&A, so I put out a handwritten call on
Twitter, Instagram, and the community tab right here on my youtube channel. So I
thought I would answer some of the questions that you've been asking me!
Rebecca asked, "how old were you when you started getting into sewing and crafts?"
I've been crafty since before I can remember. My mom always tells this story
where I had an art easel set up in our basement with like a tarp under it so if
I made a big mess with the paint, it wasn't a big deal. I was maybe two or
three years old and she would let me go down there and work on my paintings
whenever I wanted. And the easel had like this huge pad of paper and there was one
day that she said I came upstairs with a sheet of paper from that pad and she
describes it as just this beautiful painting of a tree with a squirrel and
she was just completely stunned because apparently it was much better than what
normal two-year-olds would create with some paints on an easel. She likes to
tell people that story. I've heard it a lot. But even as I started to get older,
if there was something I didn't own that I wanted to have like a dollhouse or
clothes for my dolls or things like that, I would make them. I'd get so excited
whenever there was a box my parents were throwing away or I would use paper or
I'd use other items around the house to create stuff and I would just make
things. That's always the way I've been and the Internet has been really great
for me because you can learn to do basically anything for free on the
internet. So anytime I'm excited about a new medium or there's something I really
want to make, I can just look up how to do it and I think that's amazing. George
asked, "when did you start loving Harry Potter?" I believe I was 11 or 12 years
old. It was between when the third book and the fourth book came out and also
the first movie had not come out yet and I was given the first three books as a
gift and I read them all and I loved them and I've been a big Harry Potter
fan ever since. I started getting involved with the Harry Potter fandom
when I was in middle school. I was around Harry's age in the first book so it was
kind of perfect. "Do you have a favorite Pokemon?" Of course I do,
where is it? I thought I had it here somewhere. My son was playing with it, I
don't know where it went, but Emolga is my favorite Pokemon. At some point during,
I think it was pokemon black, I realized that it was just the most unstoppable
pokemon I had ever encountered and also really super cute. I've always liked the
cute ones but if they don't hold their own in battle, I don't waste the spot on
my team for them, but for some reason, the combination of electric and flying-type is
just like, unbeatable. Cause normally with electric pokemon, you'll be worried that
they'll pull out a ground move and then you just will not be able to defend
yourself, but ground moves are not effective on Emolga because it flies! So
basically, you win. Every time, forever, and it's the best. "Which application are you
using to edit your videos?" I edit my videos on Final Cut Pro 10, I really like
it. I was using iMovie before that and I find that it's a very similar interface
so there wasn't a whole lot of a learning curve and I can do a lot more with it so
that's pretty great. What is your favorite DIY craft that you have ever
done? I am pretty obsessed with the bowtruckle plushies that I posted on this
channel a little while ago. Normally when I make stuff I don't usually keep it, I
give them away as gifts and I sell them and this was the first thing that I made
I was like, I'm keeping this. This is mine. I think it's really cute and I loved the
bowtruckles in fantastic beasts and where to find them and I'm just, yeah I'm
really happy with the way it came out and I'm excited that I finally have the
DIY tutorial to share with all of you! David asks "how or why did you get
started with YouTube? has it maintained that original meaning for you? has it
gained additional meetings over time?" When I started on YouTube back in
February 2006, it was a very different website back then. It wasn't the kind of
site where you go into it with a goal to become famous. It wasn't even really a
place where you would present something very polished; a lot of people back then
we're using just the iSight cameras. Some people weren't even editing them at all
and it was just kind of a place where you could express yourself in video. And
I started my channel for two reasons. One was because I liked filming things, I had
a video camera and I would just make little videos and I wanted to be able to
share them with my friends and up until YouTube became a thing, it was very hard
to share video online because you needed a place to host it and you needed enough
bandwidth to support however many people were watching it. So when I discovered
that YouTube was a thing, I thought, perfect. This is a great way to share my
videos that I've been making with my friends. Around that time, I had started
my first wizard rock band and we were performing at shows and there were a lot
of people online who liked our music who couldn't come to see us because we were
only playing like right around where we lived.
So I started filming our shows and putting them up on my YouTube
channel and that's kind of where it all got started, that's how I formed more of
an audience. A couple years later, I started vlogging and just talking to the
camera about my thoughts and I kind of fell in love with the whole idea that
this was a community where people could share their thoughts and feelings and
make things and just express themselves through video and I've been really
enjoying it ever since. "Do you still have time to play guitar?"
Funny thing about time - I don't have time for anything anymore. I don't really play
guitar as often as I should, but I'm really lucky that people have been
inviting me to perform at shows so I have been practicing for those shows and
that's kind of the only opportunity that I get to play guitar anymore, is
when I have a performance that I need to prepare for. But more than anything, I
love being able to play for an audience and getting to be on a stage and have
people singing along with me is just the best feeling in the whole world and I
would love to keep doing that and I'm really lucky that when people plan
events that they think of me and they want me to be there. "If you could have
any magical beast as a pet what would you have and why?" Probably a Bowtruckle. I
know I was talking about Bowtruckles earlier but I probably would have a bowtruckle!
I'd just have like a little friend that would sit in my pocket. And I love
that it looks like a little plant and they have so much personality and yeah.
"As somebody who's followed you since the fiveawesomegirls days I'm curious. What's
been the biggest change in you since graduating from college?" It was an
incredible life change for my mood in general. I did not like college, you
may remember this from my five awesome girls videos. But the whole time
I was kind of forced to study something I wasn't really interested in and I
wanted to be doing creative things and I wanted to be traveling and performing
and working on all of my art. While I was there, I think one of the most important
things I learned is to stop caring what people think of me and that helps me get
through it. It stopped mattering to me that people weren't interested in being
my friend and as soon as I stopped caring about that, I started making
actual friends who did care about me. But once I was finished with college and I
became financially independent, I had the freedom to do whatever I wanted to do
and that was the best result that ever could have happened
out of those miserable four years. After I graduated, I started touring full-time,
I feel like I really came out of my shell because I wasn't so sad anymore.
A lot of good things did come out of my college experience, I met some really
wonderful people and I got to take a lot of really cool art classes and one of my
psychology professors was really amazing and kind of changed my whole outlook on
everything, but I'm glad that I finished and I don't have to do it anymore. I'm so
glad it's over. "Have you had people tell you that what you do isn't a good way to
make a living?" Yes many times, and the wrong so I stopped caring about that. I
had to prove to a lot of people for a long time that what I was doing was
worthy of my time and now people will listen cause I stuck with it. I think they
thought I just woke up one day and wanted to be creative and there may be a
point in my life where I have to get a job just because I need to make more
money than this, but I'm really lucky that I get to do what I love right now
and I'm gonna keep at it for as long as I can. That seems like a good place to
stop. Thanks so much to everyone who sent in questions. Remember to click the
notification bell on YouTube and follow me on social media @Laurenfairwx so
that you catch me the next time I need some questions for a Q&A. It'll also help
you keep up with me and hear about what I'm working on. I hope you're having a
good day, thanks for watching, and I'll see you soon!
