Draw My Life
Draw My Life is an internet video genre in which the author narrates their life history, in the form of a fast-motion video of the author drawing illustrations, usually on a whiteboard, of key figures and events in their life.[1][2] Drawings can be as simple as stick figures, or fully fleshed-out, created digitally or digitised.[3] The videos often reveal previously hidden upsetting or unfortunate histories or stories, and often end in the author thanking their audience for aiding their success.[citation needed]
The first video of its kind was posted to YouTube by Irish YouTuber and musician Bry in September 2011.[4] This style of video became a popular trend on YouTube in 2013, when several other YouTube personalities began uploading such videos, some of which were featured in popular online news publications.[1][5][6] Draw My Life videos were subsequently created for fictional characters and non-YouTubers, such as Harry Potter.[7]It also similar to another type of an animation trend called storytime, where animators like Haminations and other YouTubers like TheOdd1sOut make animated videos about certain topics of their life.
