We are joined this week by MattSimplified! Matt’s brand of no-nonsense Pokémon GO content has helped him earn an audience of over 300,000 Trainers across his channels. Creating both vertical format short form and horizontal format long form videos, his content is directed to a large audience of new, returning, and veteran players. We dig in to his process and what he looks to achieve when creating his video content.
As a fan of his content, we appreciate his punchy, bright, and positive demeanor when it comes to covering the game. His quick, bite sized info drops are concise and articulate, and his home time zone in Brisbane, Australia give him an edge when it comes to releasing timely content. As a day one player, his connection to the game and culture are undeniable. For someone that has been making content for two years, his style and rhythm are refined and polished.
Our time with Matt was an absolute blast and it felt easy to have a casual and fun conversation. His love for the game, community, and content was very clear, which makes his content that much more authentic to watch. Do yourselves a favor and follow MattSimplified on all his channels!
