Charlie McDonnell

Charlie McDonnell (known on YouTube as charlieissocoollike) is a British Video Blogger, Filmmaker and Musician from Bath, who currently resides in London.

After starting to post YouTube videos in 2007, Charlie became the first Video Blogger in the UK to reach one million subscribers on YouTube. Her most viewed video is of her doing a bad american accent (she's not sure why that happened) and her second most viewed video is "Duet With Myself," which she's a bit more proud of, honestly.

In 2010 Charlie released her first album, "This Is Me." People seem to really want her to make more music but she hasn't gotten around to that yet. Throughout 2013-14, Charlie made a series of four short films, funded directly by YouTube. She likes to think they got better as she made more of them, but is happy for you to disagree with her on that.

Over the years, Charlie has worked on numerous projects for charities, including Cancer Research UK, UNICEF, Children In Need, Comic Relief, Save The Children and the Alzheimer's Society. I guess she must like helping people or something.

Beyond her own YouTube channel, Charlie has worked on many online video projects, notably "Science of Attraction," hosted by Derren Brown, and a series of video blogs from behind the scenes of Doctor Who for the BBC. She's also worked with many brands to produce videos for his own channel, including Microsoft, Sony Pictures, Pixar, Disney, and Tommy Hilfiger.

Charlie is a regular participant in Radio 1's Internet Takeover show (yes, for the actual radio) and she's also tried her hand at voice acting for Mike Bithell's upcoming video game "Volume." She's pretty new to both of these things, but fortunately hasn't been told off for doing a bad job by his bosses. Yet.

In her spare time Charlie enjoys consuming media in all its forms, and hanging out with her girlfriend and their cat, Gideon. Basically, she is deceptively boring.
