This book here... is it a memoir? Kind of. Is it a humor book? Yeah, a
bit. Is it an instructional tome? Here and there.
Perhaps best known as the snarky narrator and co-founder of the viral
YouTube channel CinemaSins, Jeremy Scott cracked the code of turning a
passion for film and sarcasm into a full-time job.
Original Sin: From Preacher's Kid to the Creation of CinemaSins (and
3.5 billion+ views) is Jeremy's compelling story of family, career, and
deep love for movies that launched him into internet stardom. In his
trademark, unapologetic voice, Jeremy gives an irreverent and honest
take on the wild ride to creating a YouTube sensation. This
memoir-with-a-twist sprinkles readers with his personal advice on the
combination of dumb luck, know-how, and je nais se quois it takes to
be successful on Youtube while hilariously relaying how two friends
stumbled into fame.
With anecdotes of laugh-out-loud misadventures and insightful,
actionable advice for aspiring YouTubers, Original Sin is the ultimate
behind-the-scenes look into the inception of an internet sensation. But
more than that, it's one man's love letter to humankind's greatest
escape, a pastime that allows us to dream and dwell on beauty, art, and
truth. Original Sin is Jeremy Scott's ode to cinema and how often life
can imitate the movies.
