Permission for Revenue Sharing on YouTube

[Cryaotic]

I had e-mailed FrictionalGames about this before back in May. Jens responded with:

"We don't give out any specific permissions for things like this nor do we run around and stop people from doing it."


There is no page or anything that you can use to link to in the monetization form and just saying that was not enough and YouTube denied each one saying the amount of info given was unsubstantial.

If you really are serious about it and truly want to have ads on your videos, you need to become a partner with studios like Machinima, Yeousch, or The Game Station. Keep in mind they won't even look at you until you have a pretty number because if you aren't pulling in enough views to them you will be wasting their time.

It took me quite a few months to finally get noticed and such by them but now I am where I am - it's quite decent.

So in my opinion, just stick with doing what you're doing and submit applications to the names I mentioned above, cross your fingers, and remember to make videos for making videos, not for making money off of them.
