RE: Mainstream | YouTubes Barriers to Entry Indubitably Zara 2015-08-29 | Closed captions [cc] availableThere are lots of things I meant to talk about in this video that I forgot because it's Friday and my brain is a puddle of glue, including the problem of insular groups of YouTubers, defining your own "success," content that is relatable only to privileged people, and how making content in an attempt to gain an audience affects that content, among other things. (Maybe another video is needed?) There were also things that came out not quite as I meant to say them, but overall I'm hoping it makes sense, and at any rate it's better than when I tried to film yesteryday. Casey's video: youtu.be/fknGY6Y-rpsRosianna's response: youtu.be/yr77eZXL6QMJazza's response: youtu.be/d5lHT46PqKkThe Danger of a Single Story: youtu.be/D9Ihs241zegI also mentioned Wiebke (of 1book1review) - she makes lots of interesting videos, and you can find her channel here: youtube.com/user/1book1reviewAlso, I found out after I uploaded this that Rincey (rincey reads) had also done a response video, which is excellent and far more articulate than mine.
