Early Life and Career as a YouTuber


Maxim Tarasenko began making videos at the age of 11-12, parodying the famous "+100500 show" on the social network "Vkontakte". On June 10, 2010, he started the first channel, MaxutkoReviews, which was subsequently renamed Maxutko99, where he recorded Let's Plays, lessons, and reviews.


On June 4, 2012, he created a second channel, TheBrianMaps, where he uploaded Minecraft videos, which eventually became the primary channel. After gaining many followers and views, Brian began to collaborate with other YouTubers, most notably Diana Niakova. On April 29, 2014, the channel hit 100,000 subscribers. Since May 4, 2014, the channel's focus has shifted away from Minecraft, and after a while, Brian has ceased filming this game.


Maxim established the BrianMaps2 channel on January 2, 2014, to share bloopers from his videos. Brian began shifting video formats away from Let's Plays on August 3rd of the same year when the main channel achieved 200,000 subscribers.


On November 23, 2015, the primary channel reached two million subscribers. Maxim shifted his channel's focus from Let's Plays to skits, which became his most successful genre. On February 6, 2016, Maxim uploaded his first full-fledged parody skit of the show "Revizorro". His blunders in copyright strike filings against reuploads of his videos resulted in the channel being disabled on February 19, the same year. The first video following the channel unblocking was a talking video, "ЗAВИСИМ ОТ ФАСТФУДА?!" (English: Are you addicted to fast food?)


On May 15, 2016, BrianMaps uploaded the video "СЛИШКОМ ДЕРЗКАЯ HЯНЯ" (eng. "Most Daring Nanny"), which quickly gained millions of views. Maxin then shifted his focus to drawings, which he continued to create until 2018. He quit producing sketch videos on May 21, 2018, since he was weary of doing them after several years and wanted to try something different.


BrianMaps got 10 million subscribers on April 9, 2019, and released the horror and comedy short film "Последняя кнопкa" (eng. "Last Button") on June 23, 2019. On June 3, 2021, the sequel "Последняя кнопка 2" (eng. "Last Button 2") was released, marking the end of the sketch period.
