  • (knocking)

  • - I'm done for the day!

  • - Hey, Lil, can you spare any time for one more lesson?

  • - My hours are very clear, okay?

  • 12 pm, until I get tired.

  • - It's 12:16.

  • - Listen buddy...

  • Dwayne, Rock, DJ, what...

  • What are you doing here?

  • Ugh, my hormones.

  • - (chuckles) Hey, hey, I love your hormones, but I'm

  • launching my YouTube channel soon, and I just need a little

  • bit of advice.

  • From the only person I can get it from, you.

  • - Right, of course, YouTube, and obviously I know YouTube.

  • Yeah, YouTube's pretty much my world, it's pretty much

  • like MyTube, and I would love to help you get into MyTube.

  • - What?

  • - What?

  • Let's begin.

  • - So tell me, - Yes?

  • - What are you thinking for your first video?

  • - Alright, you ready for this?

  • I'm the Rock, and this is my YouTube channel.

  • - Uh-huh, uh-huh, okay, I like it.

  • - Yeah? - I like it, I like it, but

  • let's work on some basics here.

  • Let me teach you some basics.

  • Rule number one, high energy.

  • - Ah, come on mama, you know you're...

  • I mean, I am the most electrifying

  • man in all of entertainment.

  • - Do they say that, is that what they say?

  • I had no idea. - [Dwayne] Yeah, that's

  • what they...

  • You didn't know that?

  • That's like my thing.

  • - So that's great. What would, like, the intro of your video be?

  • Let's hear it. - [Dwayne] With high energy?

  • - [Lilly] Let's hear it. Give me your best.

  • - Hey everybody this is The Rock, and welcome to

  • my YouTube channel and I am with Lilly Singh.

  • - Okay, okay, great.

  • - You like it?

  • - It's that I don't really feel

  • that electricity part though, you know I'm-

  • - Hmmmm.

  • - More felt like

  • Zeus without the bolt, kind of

  • pioneer village....

  • So let me show you, how about I show you how it's done?

  • - Got it, got it.

  • - DJ, stand up, let me show you.

  • - Here we go, here we go.

  • - Say we're collaborating right now.

  • We're just chilling, we just met, whatever.

  • What up everyone it's your girl Superwoman here

  • with my boo thang, my hubby, my papi,

  • Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

  • Get over here, come over here.

  • - Hey.

  • - Oh wait, Dwayne, it think you forgot your fanny pack on.

  • - Oh no, I'm not wearing a fanny pack.

  • Hallejulah!

  • Hallejulah! ♫

  • - Rule number two, exciting thumbnails.

  • It is so crucial to make a thumbnail

  • that your audience can't resit clicking.

  • - Well, I'm thinking maybe a really cool headshot of me

  • you know, or like a really cool picture of my little big man

  • - Oh!

  • I mean if you wanted to,

  • I didn't think you would,

  • yeah, personally though, if you're gonna do that,

  • I would like to approve that

  • or possibly even take that picture.

  • - Yeah.

  • - So the proportions are right

  • and the ISO.

  • Aperture, that's a thing, right?

  • Just, obviously for technical and professional reasons.

  • - Totally, I got it.

  • Well I got a picture right here.

  • - Okay, cool.

  • Thank you Jesus.

  • - This is my little big man right there.

  • That's Hobbs.

  • - Hobbs! - [Dwayne] Right?

  • - [Lilly] Right! - [Dwayne] Yeah.

  • - [Lilly] Thank you Hobbs!

  • I love Hobbs.

  • - Yeah!

  • - Hobbs is great.

  • But I was thinking something like really good.

  • Something that your audience would really want to click on.

  • - Alright, cool, so well, what did you have in mind?

  • - Well it needs to be something easy to understand,

  • it's your first video, right?

  • So I was thinking--

  • Oh, oh, oh I know!

  • What if you kissed me?

  • - What?

  • - What?

  • Did you say you wanted to kiss me?

  • - Do you think it would work?

  • - I don't have almost 10 million subscribers for no reason,

  • you know what I mean?

  • - Right, right.

  • Okay.

  • - So we should probably just do it.

  • I'm just gonna-- - [Dwayne] That's for business.

  • - [Lilly] I'm just gonna set up the camera.

  • - Get ready.

  • - Alright, let's just do it.

  • Just for the thumbnail, right?

  • - It's for the thumbnail right?

  • Alright, cool.

  • Let's do it.

  • I gotta get my lips ready.

  • Here we go.

  • (sensual music)

  • - That was okay.

  • - Yeah.

  • - Yeah.

  • - You think it'll work?

  • - Yeah, I think we should one more time though,

  • I'll zoom in a little this time, just so you know.

  • - Can't you just crop it?

  • - See the thing is YouTube doesn't allow

  • cropped thumbnails.

  • Also, we're gonna have to do a French kiss

  • so that the subtitles work in France.

  • - Huh.

  • Okay.

  • Yes. - [Lilly] Rule number three.

  • CTA, aka call to action.

  • Because it's so important to tell you audience what to do in your outro.

  • How would you do that, let me hear it.

  • - I would say like,

  • "Yo, hope you like the videos

  • "and maybe you wanna just subscribe to the thing,

  • "a little bit more."

  • That's it, just subscribe--

  • - Here's the thing, you're giving them like

  • this much Rock and you need to give them this much.

  • You need to give them Grand Canyon Rock.

  • - Oh.

  • - Let me show you how to do it.

  • This is what you'd say, you'd say something like,

  • "Thanks so much for watching the video!

  • "Make sure you like, comment, subscribe.

  • "Like me on Facebook, watch me take Lilly on a date,

  • "follow me on Twitter."

  • - What?

  • - Oh, which one, was it follow me on Twitter?

  • - I think it was the--

  • - Comment below ?

  • - I think it was--

  • - That was the comment below,

  • you always say the comment below.

  • And then you say,

  • "Yo, check out my Snapchat, check out my Pinterst,

  • "my merch is in the description.

  • "Check me out on Tumblr,

  • "because the Rock tumbles, tumblr.com/Avalanche."

  • - I tumble now, yes.

  • - And real important, "Check out my IMDB."

  • You know why, cause you don't know how many more

  • Fast and the Furious movies you're gonna make,

  • you know what I mean, but you need to be prepared,

  • I'm just saying.

  • "Follow me on Instagram, follow my eyebrow on Instagram."

  • Wait, your eyebrow has Instagram, right?

  • - It does not have an Instagram,

  • but my little big man has an Instagram.

  • - Hobbs has Instagram.

  • - No, I ain't talkin bout Hobbs.

  • - DJ, you're killing me.

  • Ray, we need an Instagram please,

  • can we get an Instagram verified?

  • Immediately, verified, I don't want to be

  • confused with any other eyebrows, ok?

  • We don't want to be confused with Cara Delevingne.

  • In fact, can you also secure Pebble Brow, Rock Brow,

  • - [Dwayne] That's good. - [Lilly] Igneous Brow,

  • all synonyms.

  • Rolling Stones Brow, all of that.

  • And last, number four, this one's important.

  • - Yes.

  • - Be yourself.

  • - That's it?

  • - Yeah.

  • Honestly Dwayne, I have been following you

  • since I was a little girl.

  • I had your posters all over my room

  • and I read your autobiography when I was in fifth grade.

  • I wrapped it in saran wrap because it was

  • my most prized possession

  • and this right now is the greatest accomplishment

  • of my whole career.

  • So you don't need any gimmicks.

  • People love you for you.

  • I love you for you

  • so just be yourself.

  • - Wow, that was so beautiful and earnest,

  • thank you so much,

  • I mean, you really think so?

  • That's it?

  • - Hell no boo, you need to eat some cinnamon

  • and wear less shirts.

  • - Okay.

  • - But now that you know the basics,

  • I wanna take you somewhere.

  • I gotta take you to the Factory.

  • - The what?

  • - Let me show you.

  • - We gonna kiss again?

  • - Yooo, hope you enjoyed that video.

  • If you did, give it a big thumbs up.

  • Comment below and let me know what was

  • your favorite part.

  • I know you're expecting Dwayne to be there,

  • he had to go actually, he was busy, had to run something,
