    Earlier this year Carlos got to travel to Denver, Co. to attend Stream TV, a conference focussed on the world of OTT and FAST channels. Denis and Carlos discuss about the experience and what insights were gathered from the experience. 

    Notables:

    Changes to the YouTube Partner Program: 
    “Starting today, eligible creators will begin to be able to apply to YPP earlier - once they’ve met a threshold of 500 subscribers, 3 public uploads in the last 90 days, and either 3000 watch hours in the past year or 3M Shorts views in the last 90 days. These new partners will unlock access to fan funding features like channel memberships, Super Chat, Super Stickers, Super Thanks, and the ability to promote their products with YouTube Shopping.”

    Let's talk CTV!

    What is CTV you ask? Some call it Connected TV, but most just call it TV nowadays. 

    Did you know that YouTube is the leader in CTV? Crazy huh? 

    In this episode, Denis schools Carlos on the CTV landscape and Carlos pretends he knows something.  We also discuss, what this means for online video creators and more. Join us and then complain online that we know nothing!

  • The Impact of YouTube Shorts, Denis joins the podcast
    Mar 1 2023

    You are not imagining things, this is a new episode of VIP that is hitting your podcast feed!

    After a long hiatus, VIP returns with some changes. Denis Crushell joins the show to regularly co-host with Carlos Pacheco. We are taking baby steps with the show, we might change the name but our current focus is to make sure we get back on a regular upload schedule. 

    As we publish the first episode of this "reboot" the YouTube creator space is going through changes (when isn't it?) as YouTube Shorts is posing a real threat to TikTok's vertical video dominance and monetization of Shorts on YouTube has kicked off with a whimper. We discuss that, what we've been up to and what are the plans for VIP going forward. 

    Links we referenced: 

    • James Creesh's Linkedin post on everything you need to know about YouTube Shorts is rolling out creator monetization on Feb 1st.
    • Cracking the YouTube Shorts code by Little Monster Media
    • Denis' post on Linkedin YouTube VP of Marketing Kate Stanford shared an insightful post regarding YouTube surpassing Netflix as the most-watched streaming platform in the U.S. In 2023.
