I became interested in my topic of gambling because it’s a hobby many around me indulge in. It’s probably something I’ll pick up from my father, especially since I give him 10 dollars every now and then to bet for me since I’m not old enough to sports bet in the state of New York. This is how I got curious on the topic of gambling and it’s pros and cons on people today.

The purpose of this project is to further educate my targeted audience, which is young teens, 13,  to young adults, 20. This audience specifically because it’s this generation of people that will be the firsts to take advantage of all the betting one can do on their phone. Not only that but some video games are making games pay to win meaning kids will want to use their parents money to better themselves in a video game. More states around the United States are legalizing sports betting and apps are quick to promote their product in states that just legalized online betting. My protect will be distributed on YouTube since that’s the go to for informative videos. I tried to use facts from articles used in my RAB and facts I wished I had used in my RAB to inform viewers on gambling information. I also used small animations to appeal to my audience even though it’s not the best but hopefully my young audience understands.

I chose making an informative video because young adults don’t want to read a long article. Most search for a quick video on a subject and they’re filled with informative information on a topic one searched up. Especially since YouTube has over 2.5 billion active users, there has to be a small chunk of those 2.5 billion that get intrigued by gambling on young people today.
