How video-sharing sites can affect creative culture?
Video-sharing sites such as YouTube definitely enhance creative culture, as such websites provide a free platform for public, perhaps you and me, to publish and share their works. They may not a professional video-maker or producer, but they regard Youtube as a kindly casual forum to show their talent or express their opinion, attracting more and more people involved in it, and therefore keen on produce their creative works. These sites often allow new and creative ideas come out, for example, a blender advertisment would always be dull, focusing a housewife using it, right? But through Youtube, a blender advertisment can be developed as creative as follow,
The video uploaded may not be of high quality in production, yet most of them are "selling" the content rather. Users can make use of these platform to invent and do experiment, just like "Will it blend", by blending new technologies so as to make noise and promote themselves (or products). Video-sharing sites enrich users' creativity because there is no rule and guidelines to limit your works, and therefore become an alternative place for "self and business marketing".

Rachelle, I agree with you that most videos uploaded focus on content rather than artistic value or techniques. Since the videos are not such perfect, so people can modify or reproduce them in a more artistic and creative way! And the creative culture began from this.
回覆刪除It's a good idea, Nina. By polishing their "rough works", maybe they would become a more active video maker in different kind of medium.
回覆刪除Hi Rachelle,
回覆刪除I have saw this video on Youtube too ! It is very funny, also creative. This a a good example to show the power of Youtube. In the past we can not show this kind of video to the public, but after Youtube occur, we can show and see other's video, this also help to enhance the creative culture.

Its is good that Youtube invites feedback from public. Whatever the quality the video have, video makers receive comments which push he/her keep doing well or improve it. To me, usual advice is one of the vital elements of good works.
