About YourFriendInABox
YourFriendInABox is the YouTube channel of Stephen Dunn, a Canadian filmmaker who posts short films, music parodies and a few handmade craft videos. The channel has 13 uploads, with the most recent in 2015, so it is not active today. Its strongest hit is a parody of the song 'Friday' with about 704 thousand views, while the median video draws roughly 9 thousand views.
The audience is estimated, not measured, and likely skews toward adults in their twenties and thirties who follow independent film and offbeat comedy. Some back-catalog titles carry adult themes, which matters for brand safety screening.
Sponsored integrations are priced at about $20 to $35 per 1,000 median views, which works out to roughly $180 to $320 per video. That is a CPM of $20 to $35, higher than the $10 to $30 typical for paid ads, so the case for booking rests on the niche fit rather than raw reach. Brands with a creative or film-related product may find it a fit.
