David Hain (born August 6, 1981 ) is a German game editor and web video producer . On YouTube , he operates the German-language video channel BeHaind with around 480,000 subscribers. He became famous as an editor and moderator at GIGA .

Career

Time before GIGA

After dropping out of his media informatics studies at the Beuth University of Applied Sciences in Berlin , Hain turned to the video game industry . He worked for three years as an editor at digital-movie.de , in 2008 he was responsible for video games and movies at gamona.de . Some time later he switched to funload.de , where he again worked as a game editor .

GIGA

After ECONA AG took over GIGA on March 1, 2011, David Hain switched from funload.de to GIGA and became editor-in-chief . A few months after the takeover of the group, however, Hain gave up the role of editor-in-chief and worked as head of video editing. Although he still irregular wrote articles and tests for the games sector, since he was the cooperation with the gigas YouTube - Network Media force mainly responsible for the video content on the games sector. In addition to the video work for GIGA.de , Hain has already been invited several times to larger and smaller specials in the YouTube scene, such as the live format Last Man Standing , on which other web video producers such as Gronkh , Sarazar and PietSmiet also participated.

In September 2013, he and GIGA separated from each other. He complained that the content was brought into line with the mass market and that it was designed specifically for the short attention span of today's young people. His termination and the reasons should initially not be mentioned, as it was feared that GIGA would suffer a drop in the number of clicks and viewers would express their solidarity with David Hain and turn away from GIGA. In the 132nd episode of Radio GIGA on October 4, 2013, he announced his departure from the game magazine. David cited his declining interest in written journalism and the desire for his own project as the reason for leaving. In GIGA News the following day, he was seen for the last time as permanent video editor. His departure largely triggered negative reactions in the community, as David Hain has often been the face behind the brand since ECONA took over GIGA.
