Draw My Life is a type of Internet video in which the author narrates their life history, set to a fast-motion video of the author drawing illustrations on a whiteboard of key figures and events in their life.[1] Often, the videos reveal previously hidden upsetting or unfortunate histories or stories, and end in the author thanking their audience for aiding in their success.
The videos began in 2013, following the upload of a video from YouTube celebrity, Sam Pepper.[2] Despite only coming to attention in 2013, YouTuber and musician Bry arguably made the first notable Draw My Life, back in 2011.[3]
Following the video, several other popular YouTube celebrities began uploading Draw My Life videos,[4] some of which were featured on popular online news publications.[5][1]
Eventually, Draw My Life videos for fictional characters and non-YouTubers such as Harry Potter and Avatar Korra were created.[6][7]
In December 2013 a Draw My Life video making iPad app was released on the App Store called Draw My Life App.[8]
