Connor

Connor Melville was a co-Producer, Production Manager and Talent for Get Good Gaming alongside Paul. He was known for being on Team Edge Gaming until the channel was shut down. He began working for Hi5 in late 2016 and was let go from the company in March 2021.

Background & Family
Connor Melville was born on May 23rd, 1996, he is a gemini zodiac sign. Connor was born and raised in California and has remained there so far, he has one brother. Connor's family is not very public but he started his vlogging career while he was still living with them so there are still some things that are known about his family such as their names.

Connor's original plan for a career path was police services, which he believes would have been his dream job and path if it wasn't for finding a position at Hi5 studios. Though, Connor was going to college at the College of the Canyons for Business Administration and Management, with his projected graduation year being 2019.

Through this whole time, Connor has been close friends with Paul. They have known each other since high school and Connor is the reason Paul got introduced to a job at Hi5 studios since Connor recommended him to Matt.

At his family home, Connor had two dogs and lived with both of his parents. Connor now lives in an apartment with his fiancée, Shawna Brown, who he met on Tinder in 2018. They began dating on March 5th, 2018. Connor proposed to Shawna on December 25th, 2020 with a tentative date of June 2022 as their wedding day.

Work Life
Connor had a few jobs previous to Hi5. He started out working as a Team Supervisor at a "Family Fun Centre" throughout his high school life, from July 2009 to July 2014. After this, he offered up his knowledge to tutor people at the high school he attended previously, he was doing this from August 2015 to August 2016.

Immediately prior to working at Hi5, Connor worked at Lowes as a sales associate, this job lasted from April 2016 to November 2016. He started in the garden and outside lawn department where he spotted Team Edge members, Bryan and J-Fred, coming into the store to purchase things while he was working one day, Connor was previously a fan of Hi5's content before working with them. Later on, he got transferred departments to the paint department due to his upper supervisors noticing his abilities with customer support. This is where he met Team Edge another time and offered his help if they needed it. Connor then got hired for a week, as they had just moved into the Studio, and wanted some help. A few days after that, Connor was hired full time.

When Connor was hired at Hi5, he mostly appeared on Team Edge since that is technically where he got hired. Later on, Connor's position changed to officially be labelled as a Producer since he began the Team Edge Gaming channel where he played video games with various guests and there was often a consequence for losing. Through his job changes over the years, his Producer title remained the same as he shifted from Team Edge Gaming, to occasional appearances on Googly Eyes!, and then onto his job working on Get Good Gaming alongside Paul, Matt, and Tanner. Additionally, the title of being a Production Manager got added to his list in November 2020 as Get Good Gaming began undergoing changes to the channel in preparation for the talent of the channel to be limited to only Paul and Connor.

His final position at Hi5 was solely working for Get Good Gaming as a co-producer alongside Paul. They had many plans to expand the channel before the channels cancellation was announced on April 13th, 2021. Connor announced on his Twitch stream prior to this, on April 7th, that he was let go from the company and would be trying to pursue full-time content creation on his own platforms. He stated his friendship with Paul has become stronger as a result of this career change and they will continue to make content together.

With leaving Hi5, Connor is now a talent member of Team Edge once again, appearing in videos very frequently.
