Wags'ed

What started out as a spontaneous attempt to record a funny incident, turned into a full blown YouTube channel. College students, five of my friends and I loved acting and making jokes. One day we just decided to hit the record button and see what we could do. Little did we know that there was so much we could learn from the whole process of ‘before, during and after’ recording a video. Through trial and error we started to make short videos that varied at length ranging from 2-4 minutes each, based on our shared comical experiences. 
Now in its 2nd season, two of our close friends have also joined in our little ‘Wags’ed family’, making the eight of us stronger than ever. The question still remains though, why Wags’ed? Well, eight years ago my dog Wags went missing. Wags was such a big part of my life that when he disappeared it changed me. From then on, I decided that in everything that I do, I would put his name in it as a way of acknowledging his impact on my life. Therefore, Wags’ed was named after my dog, and every form of creative expression I produce is a reflection of the person Wags helped me become.
