In early 2019, Casey Neistat began filming “Under the Influence,” about 23-year-old YouTube phenomenon David Dobrik, capturing his evolution from prankster to online celebrity with major brand sponsors and tens of millions of followers across social media platforms. But in 2021, the docu took a turn when a Business Insider story documented sexual-assault allegations by a woman against a former member of Dobrik’s Vlog Squad, Dom Zeglaitis. When the article went viral, Dobrik’s world began to collapse around him and Neistat was there to capture it. The result is a can’t-take-your-eyes-off-it feature docu that sheds light on the social media’s ecosystem and the personalities it perpetuates.
Neistat teamed with Killer Films and documentary writer-producer Mark Monroe to make “Under the Influence,” which is bound to cause more controversy for Dobrik after premiering at South by Southwest on March 12. Neistat and Killer Films co-founder Christine Vachon spoke to Variety...

Yet another member of YouTube’s ‘Vlog Squad’ -- a crew of former Viners who have risen to renown via appearances in David Dobrik’s massively popular daily vlogs -- is furthering his foray into music.
Lithuanian-born hip hop artist and YouTube star Dom Zeglaitis has recruited fellow Squad members Jason Nash, BigNik, and Seth Francois for his latest track, appropriately dubbed "Vlog Squad." The song arrived on Valetine’s Day -- roughly two weeks after Scotty Sire, another Vlog Squad member, released the trending lyric video for his pop tune "Mister Glassman." In "Vlog Squad," the guys make the usual boasts about money and women, and Zeglaitis also manages to work in a clever promo for his online merch store Zeggoz.com.
