Media arts student Nathan Young brought a late-night thought to life with the creation of the show "Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die." (Hannah Miner)

In February, BYU media arts major Nathan Young was playing Dungeons and Dragons with some friends when one suggested that Young start a role-playing game (RPG) show and take on the role of Dungeon Master. Young said most of his friends laughed it off, but he stayed up all night thinking about the idea.

Over the next few months, Young rounded up volunteers from the media arts major to help him with this project. Young said since the idea for the web series was sparked in February, all the grant deadlines had already passed.

"We had no budget. Fortunately, we were able to scrape together enough willing people who think the idea is cool from all over campus to help put this together," Young said.

Young's show 'Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die'was live-streamed on July 18 through Youtube.
