The Reel: Is it a reality or a fantasy?

When somebody hits "The Reel" it is basically when they get their big break. That mind-block you had for endless hours is suddenly smashed aside and you post something so awe inspiring that, that small pool of views you get suddenly bursts into a massive amount of people hungering to see your blogs. That is what every true blogger, youtuber or vlogger wishes for. Though is it really as easy as they all say it is? Is "The Reel" reality or a fantasy?

You hit the reel, now what?

"For few to be immortal many must die."

This saying came out of the movie In Time in which the evil millionaire states the reality of life in plain blank terms. But I will change it too "For few to be popular many must not."  and unfortunately this is all too true in a world with seven billion people in which every average Joe only knows an average of twenty celebrities. These odds are obvious and in the face of massive competition not everyone can stand up and be that one person that succeeds, or in this case the one person that will be immortal. Most people think they will be the exception and that they can become famous and laugh at their former high school bully as he trips up while cleaning your house falling straight into that disgusting sludge at the bottom. It is always possible that one could run above the call of duty and become incredibly famous only to lose thousands of viewers as they try to follow up what they produced that was successful with another, duller, version of it. Not to be racist or anything but its like that rubbish Chinese copy of the best movie you have ever seen with 720p suppose graphics that looks like it has one frame per second showing up on the screen. The more that are made the worse it gets. It is sadly inevitable that you lose grip of your viewers, eventually another better young entrepreneurial soul will come out of the deep dark blue and snatch pretty much everything you thought you could keep forever. Though I will list below some simple ways to keep your views stable.

1. Don't make a series lasting longer than twenty episodes. That will almost definitely bore your viewers and a million views can go to fifty thousand of those hardcore fanatics that will follow to hell and back. To expand on the point if you build more than a million of those sort of viewers your good to go.
2. Use the social network! Social networks such as Facebook are an easy way to get your viewers interested. Pretty much everyone of those viewers that take the time to follow a page are sure to subscribe to you and watch any new video you make.
3. Last but not least do not restrain yourself to a certain subject, or game or whatever you built your empire off.

I conclude that the reel is a fantasy many people will live their lives thinking they can achieve, although some the few, the great might just hit it. That means you too.
