Three months ago, Korean-American YouTuber Terry Song started uploading animated shorts to his channel. Since then, his storytelling skills combined with the eye-catching art style of his main illustrator, Reikenma, have netted him more than 520,000 subscribers, putting his channel firmly in YouTube Millionaire territory.
Like many YouTubers, Song got his start in the popular reaction video genre, but soon, other creators' animated videos sparked his creativity. As an experienced writer with a degree in film, he knew he wanted to turn his hand to creating fully illustrated shorts -- but he also knew shifting his channel from reaction content uploaded five to six times per week to animated stories uploaded only once per week would be a seismic change for a lot of his audience.
Still, he took the plunge, and by the numbers, it's clear his animated content is more than capable of pulling in an audience of its own.
