Above is a Skills Demonstration Video, showcasing some of the skills and experience I've gained over the years, many of which are from my Wayton Pilkin YouTube channel.
Overview
My YouTube Channel, Wayton Pilkin, is the primary platform where my long-form storytelling, cinematic editing, and editorial experimentation live.
What began as a channel known for high quality Rocket League tutorials has evolved into a body of work centered around cinematic documentaries, esports history, and character-driven storytelling — all built with a deep understanding of what performs on YouTube.
The channel has become known for consistently delivering production quality and narrative depth well above typical expectations for the platform.
Creative Focus
Across formats and eras, the channel has always prioritized clarity, pacing, and emotional payoff.
In recent years, the focus has shifted heavily toward:
• Documentary-style storytelling
• Long-form narrative structure and retention design
• Cinematic editing and motion-driven presentation
• Translating complex competitive history into engaging stories
While the genres have varied — tutorials, video essays, gameplay, and documentaries — the throughline has always been: "Make the best videos in the niche."
Scale & Credibility
The channel has grown into a large, engaged audience built over years of consistent output:
• 585,000+ subscribers
• 110,000,000+ total long-form views
• 27 videos with over 1,000,000 views
My documentary How a freestyler changed pro Rocket League stands out as the most ambitious and widely praised project on the channel, helping define its current creative direction and reputation.
Evolution of the Channel
Earlier in its life, the channel became known for producing some of the most respected Rocket League tutorials on YouTube — many of which continue to accumulate millions of views.
That foundation of clarity, teaching, and audience-first thinking now informs the documentary work, allowing complex stories to remain accessible without sacrificing depth or emotion.
