YouTube Everything

YouTube Everything

 

 

I'm not going to sit here and tell you how YouTube started as a simple idea and is now a giant because we all know that "Just YouTube it" is main stream now. You can find anything and everything and probably a little you don't want on YouTube. We have seen people like Bieber become legends from the living room. South Park does an entire episode making fun of these people; and spot on might I say.

But, YouTube is not only a place to get recognized anymore. It is becoming the Television. It is now a necessity for corporations to have their own channels to stay relevant in the changing environment. People are consuming original content produced solely for this medium.

Web Series are popping up left and right, using YouTube to reach the countless people searching for the New Thing. One of the best is Web Series, Youthful Daze. Youthful Daze is a Drama about rebel students at a Prep School. It's edgy, it's funny, and right around episode four or five they really start to get good and begin to find their rhythm. They have finished a full 12 episode Season 1 and are beginning to rack up views worthy of studio recognition. Definitely check it out: http://www.youtube.com/user/YouthfulDazeTube/videos

 





YouTube has also seen the rise of what I like to call the Johnny Carson Effect. People hosting their own shows on all subjects in all ways. Guys like Phil DeFranco and Fred Figglehorn appeal to their key demos with a wide fan loyalty section. But, my pick for the watch list would be up-and-comer animator/gamer/comedian RoyStClair (my_name_is Matt). RSC began his YouTube Channel Battle Scars by animating FML Videos so well he received a letter from their corporation to cease. He then preceded to animate his own sketch comedy gaining steady growth. And now his videos mix and match animation, comedy, and finally a place for gamers to share high scores and tips. RSC is always a good channel to add to the favorites for a weekly shot of post work humor and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw more production heading his way.

 I don't know whether or not I will watch the First YouTube Music Video Awards coming up here soon. I don't know if I care enough yet to consider it a must watch. It's not the VMA's or even TRL. I know YouTube is throwing the money around with live performances by Lady Gaga and Em and having a live host even if it is just Jason Schwartzman.

I'll probably just catch the highlights on YouTube. Ha...Ha.
