have a peek at some old stuff

So I thought to myself an hour ago "I should post an old review" and here it is. I wrote about 2/3 months ago *before I started university* and I linked it to the people who I based the review on and they loved it. I was utterly impressed by the comments they left me regarding the piece I wrote on them and decided to show it to you *The review that is* I will show the comment later.

Okay, so we are all familiar with YouTube right? Well I am hoping everyone is. Recently, I have been spending a ridiculous amount of time on the popular web page watching vlogs from a variety of people. Whilst giving these people some views on their videos I found a couple of people who stood out for me. Todays post features the talented;

Wong Fu Productions

This YouTube sensation consists of 3 Asian American guys going by the names of Philip Wang, Wesley Chan and Ted Fu. They all met at University and shared the same interest 'making videos' and decided at the time, for fun and educational purposes, to make videos. At the time, YouTube didn't exist so they added all their videos onto websites which would let them post videos. These videos were basically university projects which they needed to do. When YouTube finally came about the moved some of their work to the site. Their most popular video at the time was 'Yellow Fever' which they made in 2006 which explores the topic of interracial dating between Asian Americans and White Americans. Another famous video of the group's success was a short named 'A Moment With You'. This was the groups first proper feature-length film and was screened at the San Diego Asian Film Festival.

Since the success of both of these videos, Wong Fu Productions has created a mass amount of videos including a few music videos with Singer/Songwriter/Producer David Choi and At Musing's End (another Short Film). Their most current work is a webseries called 'FunEmployed' where Philip Wang stars in the series and works alongside Kevin Wu (KevJumba) and is based on two friends who are unemployed and try and make a profit by making online videos.

Wong Fu Productions attracts a whopping amount of viewers consisting of over 4.9 millions channel views and has an amazing 340,000 subscribers.

Although most of the videos posted on their YouTube page and official websitehttp://www.wongfuproductions.com are mostly music videos and shorts they have created, they also create vlogs to update the fans on what they are currently doing. Also, they have started to create a vlog called 'Wong Fu Weekends' where every weekend they will upload a video of what they did at the weekend. They are currently on the second series.

Since joining the internet world of YouTube they have also opened up an online shop for fans to by T-Shirts, DVDs and stuffed animals. Here is a few of the items on sale onhttp://www.areyouaniceguy.com/

Awkward Turtle; $25.00

NG Guys $22.00




The shop ships to people all over the world with a shipping fee set in place. Although they say the sale of the goods makes them a bit of a profit, they also donate a portion of the money earned in a month to charities.

To end this wonderful blog post; I hope you all decide to go and check their videos and subscribe as the amount of talent these three guys have is incredible. Not only do they create inspiring videos...They also storyboard them, write them, film them, edit them, promote them and upload them all for us to enjoy. So the least you could do is spare a few minute and watch one (or two, maybe even three) of their videos.

And on that note I would like to say THANK YOU Wong Fu for bringing such laughter to us and carry on with the ace videos and thank for for reading.
