DTube | Story in My Life :) ! #10

in timeforstory •  7 years ago  (edited)

This is absolutely disgusting. You are a complete garbage human being. Do you realize how much time and effort is takes for someone to create their own animations?

You need to:

  • create your own characters
  • draw them
  • record voiceovers
  • animate everything
  • add sounds effects and music…

It can take dozens and dozens of hours (typically 1-2 weeks) to produce a single, animated video. Go ask the animation community on YouTube – which clearly – you're not a part of.

You are literally copying EroldStory’s work, replacing a few images in the videos and re-uploading to dTube. Proof: here is the exact original video on YouTube that you stole:

And now you are making money from stealing other people’s work. Over $138.00 in rewards with this video of “yours” – what’s that in total – something like $480.00 in payouts? You should not get a single penny from stealing other people’s work.

And to top it all off, you have the nerve to come here and complain that you didn’t get any “support” for “your” last video. With “support” in this case you mean not profiting from stealing others’ work. What a tragedy! The fact that you're promising to give some of your stolen profits to "charity" (and which charity are referring to? ) doesn't make this any better.

By far, the animators have to work the hardest on YouTube, and here you are stealing their work. It’s not vlogging or streaming where you can pull out a camera and just start shooting a video. Every second of an animation needs to created, usually from scratch.

I really hope the team at Steemit ( paging in @dan @pkattera ) can help in removing/stopping the rewards from this post. I don't know exactly how that works.

But, I mean come on. Seriously. Let’s do f***ing do something about this crap.

Well first of all i made my own character , second thing it takes 2-3 hours to add that chibi you called it ''images'' and 20mn on the thumb rarely you find dtubers put that time on their work , al the charity name is "sos children's village" , also i asked erold before i start making this content !

Well, I appreciate you for asking him first, if you really did. But I'm not really sure Erold knew that you were going to profit from his content – certainly your message to him doesn't imply that. Just to be sure, I reached out to him on Twitter today and asked him about this. I'll let you know his response.

If you already went on to create your own character, then why not create all the drawings for the whole video? You can justify your behavior all you want. You know exactly what you did. You took a shortcut. You knew that you could take Erold's video and that would be an easy way for you to churn out videos for dTube. Even if Erold would legally agree to this, what you're doing is still morally wrong – and I wholeheartedly feel that someone should tell you that. Giving a portion of your stolen profits to charity doesn't correct or save your behavior either.

Additionally, you don't know how much all other dTubers are putting into creating their content. You can look at this video by @paolajane where she talks about the struggles and expenses in vlogging for dTube. I'm willing to bet that she spends hours and hours in creating each and every one of her videos.

This path you're on now is really short-sighted. Sooner or later people will learn what you're doing here. You are a prime example of why there's is a flagging system in place on Steemit.
