With more than 1 million unique users visiting YouTube each month, it’s definitely the most popular video sharing website on the Internet. 

Over 6 billion hours of videos are watched each month- which is almost an hour for every person on Earth. 100 hours of video are uploaded every minute. 80% of YouTube traffic comes from outside the US. The number of daily subscriptions is more than 4 times since last year. 

YouTube reaches more US adults aged 18-34 than any cable network in the US. Millions of subscriptions happen each day. The number of people subscribing daily is up more than 3 times since last year, and the number of daily subscriptions is more than 4 times since last year. 

We’ve asked a number people at the Sixth Form College Solihull to see whether they have YouTube as part of their lives.

YouTube has also had its fair share of general users some ranging form everyday to rarely at all.

(Interviews play)

Everyone also has their own personal favourites.

We have also interviewed two local YouTubers  here with us. They’re called Charlotte Whitsey and Elise Hollins.

YouTube has also found new popularity as career. Examples include Justin Bieber, famous pop artist, Karmin, who specializes in covers, TheFIneBros, famous for their “Reaction vids”, FilthyFellas, a weekly discussion on the weekends premier league football action with a range of you tubers,gamers and musicians,finally Doug Walker a.k.a The Nostalgia Critic, famous for his movie reviews.

There are a lot of Youtubers who even aid people in making a career from it. But what do the people think?

(Interviews play)

In conclusion, YouYube definitely a great career for people to have but not one that you can solely rely on.

Target Audience

Our Target Audience
Our target audience specifically targets young or middle aged people, typically computer friendly and those who have a specific interest in YouTube. We say this specific group of people as they can engage with it and relate in a positive way, whats a positive aspect of our target is that it doesn't exclude any races or either gender it still leaves our target audience still very open.  May be used to encourage people to start posting and get involved within the youtube community.

Other technical decisions include the range of clips that we've selected. These are the range of clips that are most relevant to the documentary.

YouTube Topics

YouTube blogs all take on different styles, for example;

Demonstrating how to use some software/online tool (like I do above),

How to make something (cooking, crafting, building, etc.),

How to repair or mend something (a car, DIY, clothes, etc.),

Hobbies (Gardening, painting, learning to play an instrument, etc.)

The style of the video depends upon the YouTuber, and what their interests are. The viewers of the blog also depend upon their interests, ie. gamers watching game blogs, make up tutorials for girls and even online teachers giving revision tips for students.
YouTube is amongst many media services which allow you to upload and share various media such as pictures and video.  Most services have additional social features such as profiles, commenting, etc. Videos can take different approaches, also. For example, rants, "how to's" and parody videos. Again, the approach a youtuber takes on depends entirely on their personal style, and how they best feel the video would benefit from various approaches.
