THE CHANNEL
Our channel is about our passion, board games. We started with How-to-Play videos, now we have evolved to Overview, Stella's Short and Sweet, Playthrough, Vlog, Quick Start Tutorial and other board game videos. Our channel is growing each day, and so does our board games collection.
Our Mission & Audience
We believe in creating quality videos to help educate and entertain our viewers as they learn to play modern board games, or to help them with board game purchasing decisions. We strive for clear and thoughtful explanations of games, and for a high standard of production.
We target our educational content to both casual and dedicated board gamers, and our entertainment content to dedicated gamers. We have a high proportion of male viewers (92-96%) in the 25-44 age range (93%), with global reach most concentrated in the United States.
Our Community
We are active in our local communities; organising and attending board game meet up, attending board game conventions such as Origins Game Fair, GenCon, Essen Spiel, PAX and CanCon to name a few.
We are growing our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram followers. We are always evolving, researching and learning, finding new ways to grow our channel and audience.
MEET THE TEAM
Striving to offer clear, concise, quality "How to Play", "Quick Start Tutorial", “One Round Playthrough”, “Stella's Short and Sweet”, our monthly and yearly top games, and other board game related videos for board games of all difficulties.
Meeple University created in February 2018, by both geeks Stella Jahja and Tarrant Falcke. Both met the first time through a random board game meet up, became board game buddies, fell in love, and less than two years later created Meeple University. Both play board games a few times a week, and realise that sometimes it is hard to find good how to play or brief overview board game videos that gives us great complete, logical, and structured explanation, concise and no rambling. This gave the idea to create the Meeple University YouTube channel. Both are very passionate about the board game industry and everyone that is involved in it.
STELLA
Co-Founder, Producer, Presenter, Video Editing and Social Media Girl
Stella Jahja plays and collects board games. Maybe too many. Don’t some of us all? Is a big nerd. Stella starting off in the early days in her elementary school playing computer games, then console games. Still doing those at times, but now mainly playing board games, lots of them! Stella has also started her “Tabletop Diary” Vlogs, that cover behind the screen stuff, game nights, special guests, and so on. Stella lives in Melbourne, Australia.
Tarrant
Co-Founder, Producer, Presenter, Rule and Script Guy
Tarrant Falcke used to spend his spare time writing Wikipedia. Well, not much more now; he spends his time playing board game, learning the rules and writes the script for Meeple University videos – not always, sometimes he has it in his head only. Tarrant’s dry humour sometimes is part of the spice of our board game videos. Tarrant can also read upside down really well – handy to play board game. Tarrant also lives in Melbourne, Australia
