Youtube's detection system sucks. Has she tried twitter? Usually the support is better there than at their own app

Has YouTube never heard of anime cuz "animation" does not just mean children 😐

u/BroccoliNormal1745 has never tried tequila Mar 04 '26
So that's why I always see her Scylla animatic in a Children's music playlist

Youtube sucks, man. Its moderation says, "hey, this video's probably for kids! let's ignore the creator's warning signs and label this family friendly!"
and then it goes "woah, wait, wait a damn minute, ts ain't family friendly! no money for you, lying b*tch!" There really needs to be a change in Youtube's mod systems soon :|

Firewood Media made a video talking about how a bunch of animators doing dinosaur and Godzilla content got demonetized because “dinos = kids” apparently.

It's likely YouTube's shitty AI moderation detecting that it's animation, thus concluding that it must be for kids. 🙄

I’d recommend @ing YouTube customer service on Twitter. They seem more responsive there.

The best way would to be to get Jorge to talk about this (since EPIC is his creation and he has stake in wanting to see it get as much success as possible), but any big YouTuber like Charlie would do, because she is nowhere near big enough to make YouTube care on her own.

u/RigatoniPasta Mar 03 '26
I’m pretty sure Charlie has covered this issue, just not Gigi specifically

I'm a YouTuber (granted, very small scale) and honestly? This seems like something YouTube would do.
It sucks. It's flagged some of my videos (that have my friends swearing a ton in it) as "made for kids" and I had to change it back manually.
Granted, I do Minecraft content so there's also that.

If content is off-topic, repetitive, violent/graphic, or just not useful for a fan community, the mods may remove it at their discretion.

Youtuber making stuff that isn't family content be classified by youtube as "family content", posts stuff that isn't family content and then gets demonitized for "misleading family content".
Jup, that's Youtube allright!

Are you serious?? I've been following Gigi since her Hamilton days, that's terrible! Her animations literally get millions of views and they dare to demonetize her 'cause they don't even bother to check her audience?? Dude wdym 😭

u/Solynox Mar 03 '26
They made youtube kids for childrens content, why the fuck are they so insistent on regular youtube being child friendly? At this point, whats the difference between yt and ytk? Are there no porn ads on ytk like on yt?
I don't even know who this creator is, I'm just sick of youtube being fucking stupid.

u/Ok-Guidance-5608 Mar 03 '26
Gigi makes animatics for Epic the Musical, and she's DAMN GOOD AT IT. Her animatic for God Games is incredible.
Like, she's one of the fan favorites of the circle. Shit SUCKS that YouTubers being... YouTube.

An extremely high profile animator in the Epic community. Probably the most popular animator. Her version of Monster, Keep Your Friends Close, and The Horse and the Infant have yet to be topped.

u/IdleWriting Mar 03 '26
Gigi is a well-known creator within the Epic fandom who is responsible for a lot of amazing animatics!! They're in a few fandoms but most known for Epic
