A number of people who play Minecraft on video are making a decent living, and it’s an industry that is growing — especially among young people. Now, one company has hired one of these “young people” to reach out and expand its roster of content creators.
Jake Flositz is Beachfront’s secret weapon to convince game-video creators to join its legion of apps.
Jake Flositz is 18 years old, and he is in charge of developing the relationship between YouTube and Twitch video makers and his company, Beachfront Media. This is a firm that is trying to build what it calls an “off-YouTube” solution for people with an established audience. Beachfront has an app that it can customize for each of its partners that will serve up original videos directly to fans. Examples include Call of Duty pro EliteShot and Minecraft streamer Gizzy Gazza.
