YouTube Shows comes to Korea
Kamis, 29 Maret 2012
Over the last year Korean TV stations have been opening up YouTube channels and offering a wide variety and deep catalog of their shows—everything from weekly dramas to
K-Pop
musical programs. The main three terrestrial broadcasters all have multiple channels with their top shows — KBS (
Main Channel
,
Drama
,
Entertainment
,
KBS Life
,
Documentary
,
KBS world
), MBC (
Kpop
,
Entertainment
,
Drama
,
MBC World
), and SBS (
Entertainment
,
Drama
,
FreeVOD
,
Culture
). YouTube also has many top cable shows such as
Pororo
from Iconix animation studio and
Sonbadak TV
.
To help you find Korean TV on YouTube, viewers in Korea now have a new
Shows
page organizing all programs available. For the rest of the world, you can still find the shows through
youtube.com/shows/other-languages
, but note that not all programs are available in all countries.
On the Shows page in Korea, you’ll find new programs like
Infinite Challenge (무한도전)
and classics like
My Lovely Sam-Soon (내 이름은 김삼순)
, with subtitles in English, Spanish and other languages. The new Shows pages also gives you key information about the program, such as a cast list and credits.
In many cases, each episode is divided into clips, but there’s no need to click on each video one at a time. The first video selected will automatically link to the next video and that one to the next. So once you start watching, you can easily flow to the end of the show.
If you have a favorite TV program, subscribe to the channel so that you’ll be
updated on your homepage
whenever there’s a new episode. We’ll be adding more programs from more stations in the future, so check back frequently.

19,000+ episodes of Indian TV on YouTube Shows
Kamis, 15 Maret 2012
India is one of world’s largest producers of TV shows. With more than 400 terrestrial and local channels available, Indians often face the challenging question: What am I going to watch?
The good news is that we increasingly don’t have to worry about when to watch. Over the last few years, major Indian broadcasters such as
Sony Entertainment Television
,
Colors
,
ImagineTV
,
Star India
, and
VikatanTV
have been bringing their shows to YouTube so that you can watch them whenever you want.
Now that our Indian TV partners offer more than 19,000 full episodes of 300 programs in six different languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Gujarati, and Punjabi), we wanted to offer our Indian viewers an updated Shows page at
youtube.com/shows
to help you better follow shows you love and discover new favorites. For the rest of the world, you can still find the shows through
youtube.com/shows/other-languages
.
You’ll find programs into genres like drama and comedy, as well as the latest and top watched episodes featured on the page. Missed the last episode of
Bade Acche Lagte Hai
? It’ll be right there in the channel waiting for you. If you’re looking for a few good places to start, check out popular shows like
Balika Vadhu
,
Ramayan
,
CID
,
Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev
,
Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah
and
Thendral
.
These 19,000+ episodes are just a start, so we hope we can keep delivering more and more content that viewers across India—and around the world—want to see.

Machinima says bite me
Selasa, 14 Desember 2010
Machinima.com
programs and produces some of the most popular video channels on YouTube, including
Machinima
,
Machinima Respawn
,
Machinima Sports
,
Machinima Realm
, and
Machinima Trailer Vault
. They recently launched
Bite Me
, a five episode live-action series, that features three video gamers in the midst of a real-life zombie outbreak. We asked Andy Shapiro, VP of Development at Machinima, a few questions…
Tell us about Bite Me. What can the YouTube Community expect from the series?
With Bite Me, viewers will get a high-end premium live-action series that is designed to engage Machinima.com’s video gamer community, and appeal to a broader audience too. The initial run is five episodes that are structured to play both independently as well as a whole piece. Essentially, we are airing a pilot that, with success, we can continue producing as a regular series.
Bite Me was first conceived to tell the story of three habitual gamers that find themselves in a very real world situation. We didn’t want this to be just another zombie show, and wanted to creatively set it apart from the zombie movies and series that have come before. By setting the story during the actual zombie outbreak, we had fun writing about three under-estimated characters, who had to rise up after realizing that something terrible was happening. Ultimately this is an aspirational story, featuring unlikely heroes.
How have the fans reacted to the first episodes, and when do Episodes 3, 4, and 5 debut?
We are amazed by how the community has reacted to the series. The videos have had more than two million views so far, and we've loved reading the comments from the viewers. The response has been phenomenal, and people are responding well to the characters. We will debut the remaining episodes on December 11, December 17, and December 31 - exclusively on Machinima's YouTube Channel. You can check out the series and watch it from Episode 1 continuously here:
Why a zombie series, and why are people so passionate about zombies?
Zombies are the natural fit with our audience because zombies appear in their favorite movies, video games and comic books. It’s a genre with a deep history, that we intend to both honor and have fun with. There was a natural opportunity for integration with Capcom and their Dead Rising 2 title because our audience is not only fans of the game, but by including the title, we added more credibility to the characters as gamers and zombie experts.
You've had a lot of success with your YouTube Channels, Machinima, Respawn, Sports, Realm, and Trailer Vault? Can we expect more live-action series from Bite Me from
Machinima.com
?
We’re thrilled about the initial success the series. We’re learning a lot about digital story-telling, and are fortunate to have a very interactive audience who enjoys seeing us play with gaming culture. We look forward to growing our entertainment series, and people can check-out our channel for more of these types of projects.

Chief Household Officer: Using new media know-how to run your family
Jumat, 03 Desember 2010
Ask any working parent and they’ll tell you they have two jobs; the day-job, and the one that takes up all the other hours of the day - that of “Chief Household Officer.” Today's multi-tasking CHOs are full-blown owner/operators of their households, employing all the same methods as corporations—from programming the daily calendar to Tweeting the kids home for dinner, from running weekly budget meetings to implementing long-term financial strategies.
“Chief Household Officer”
is a new series, produced by Howcast and brought to the web by HP, that takes you inside the real-life households of these remarkable working parents and focuses on the cutting-edge techniques and innovative technologies they use to keep their families running.
New videos will be updated weekly, so be sure to check in each week for useful how-to information from decisive CHOs who have made taking charge of their families and homes truly a 'growth industry.'

Freddiew’s "Roadtrip" teaches amateur filmmakers tricks of the trade
Selasa, 02 November 2010
Freddie Wong and his production partner, Brandon Laatsch, describe themselves as “just some cool dudes making sweet vids with rad FX!” And if you’ve ever seen their
action-packed
,
colorfully explosive
videos, you know this to be true. Wong is starting a new series called "YouTube Roadtrip 2010," where he’s driving across the U.S. in an RV, meeting with fans and teaching them filmmaking skills. The series just premiered on his
primary channel
, where he'll be uploading new episodes for the next couple of months, and he'll be putting supplementary videos on his
secondary channel
.
1) How did you come up with this idea?
Brandon and I were walking around our street one day (we had just bought ice cream), talking about locations, and how we felt like our industrial looking area was getting a little boring as a location. Over the last six months, we've gotten boatloads of emails from our viewers asking us to visit their hometowns, or showing off cool locations near them, and we thought, "Well, why can't we go and make videos where our viewers are?" So that's basically how it started: we wanted to get out of L.A., we wanted to meet our viewers in person, and we wanted to collaborate and make videos with them.
2) What’s your favorite place visited so far?
The House on the Rock in Wisconsin, which is apparently one of four possible things to do in Wisconsin (the other three being, in no particular order, cow tipping, football, and cheese curds). Basically, this guy named Alex Jordan totally idolized Frank Lloyd Wright, and one day got the opportunity to show Wright some of his architectural drawings. Wright basically told Alex that all his drawings were horrible and he wasn't fit to design a chicken coop, so, jilted, he decided to build a Japanese-style house on a rock in the middle of Wisconsin.
Thing is, Alex was clearly NUTS because he kept building and made the whole thing into this giant sprawling complex featuring giant music machines, the world's largest indoor carousel, suits of armor, dolls, dollhouses, ridiculous guns, dioramas of circuses, and more. I struggle to define in words the sheer amount of spectacle within those walls, and by the end, you leave the museum dazed from everything you've just seen.
It's a place that has to be experienced. I highly recommend it to anybody.
3) If someone wants you guys to stop in their town, how do they make that happen?
The best way is to have a location that they either own or have permission to use. We have a submission form at our website
http://facerocker.com/submit
Otherwise, they can send me a message on
Twitter
. Best bet is to send along a photo or something, as well, so we know what we're getting into.
4) What is the most common mistake or misconception among the budding filmmakers you meet?
The idea that equipment and software are the two most important things you need to become a filmmaker. We started out with cameras that shot on VHS tapes, and we used to edit with VCRs, but that never stopped us. It blows my mind to see how awesome cameras are nowadays – even on cell phones. The fact is, the cheapest camera today is a trillion times better than anything we had access to when we were younger.
We hear a lot of people talking about how they'll start making movies once they get that camera they've been saving up for, or that piece of software they know the pros use. That's not the way to do it – use ANY camera you can get, use iMovie or Windows Movie Maker to edit, if you have to – the key is to get out there and start doing it. You become a filmmaker by making films, not staring at equipment catalogs dreaming of how awesome that camera will make your films look.
You don't become a great guitarist without practicing scales, you don't become a great painter without sketching a lot of fruit, and you certainly don't become a good filmmaker without shooting a lot of movies, and you don't need thousands of dollars worth of equipment to start practicing.
5) If your RV could talk, what would it say?
RV: "Freddie, change my oil!"
Freddie: "No, you're a rental."

Release Notes: Seven new languages, four new countries get partner program, and lots more...
Kamis, 30 September 2010
Bits and bobs that’ve gone live since our
last Release Notes
...
YouTube is now available in...:
Arabic, Bulgarian, Lithuanian, Romanian, Slovenian, Ukrainian and Vietnamese!
Four new countries get YouTube Partner Program:
The Partner Program continued its expansion this quarter, with launches in Argentina, Sweden, New Zealand and the Czech Republic. That makes 21 countries in which people can make money from their videos. For more information about partnerships, click
here
.
Crossfades, wipes and slides:
The
video editor
lets you combine and trim your videos right on YouTube.com, without installing any software. Now you can add transitions, like crossfades and wipes, between video clips. Just select the transitions tab in the media picker, drag the transition and drop it between any two videos in the storyboard.
MySpace Autoshare:
Automatically share your YouTube activities on your MySpace account (you can already do this on your Facebook, Twitter, Buzz, Reader and Orkut accounts). To hook this up, go to Account >
ActivitySharing
and click “Connect accounts” next to the MySpace logo.
More filtering for charts:
YouTube Charts
can now be filtered by categories such as Comedy, Gaming and Pets & Animals, in addition to time and popularity "slices." We also show more results (20) per page.
Improved screen reader accessibility for YouTube player:
One of our engineering interns spent part of his summer improving video accessibility for visually impaired people. If you use a screen reader that supports Flash, we hope you'll find it easier to enjoy videos on YouTube now. We've also added some more captioning features to the
YouTube Data API
. You can list tracks, request auto-timing, and download the speech recognition captions for videos that you own.
Shows in France:
If you’re a YouTube viewer in France, now you can watch full-length TV shows, like
BFMTV: Bourdin Direct
and
Britain’s Got Talent
. Check out the page
here
.
HD and CC badges on search results page:
When you search for a video on YouTube, the search results now show HD and CC (Closed Caption) badges, in addition to the NEW, CHANNEL and PLAYLIST badges that already exist. If you click on the badge, it will filter out results that don’t fall under that category.
“Add-to playlist” widget:
The [+] button on video thumbnails in search results now includes a menu that allows you to add the video to any one of your playlists or start a new playlist. Additionally, the "save to" button below the video is being renamed "add to" and will have the same functionality.
Visited video styling on search results and video pages:
Browsers help people remember links they have previously clicked on by giving them a different color, the standard generally being that links are in blue and visited links are in purple. Many sites, including YouTube, opt to make all links blue regardless of visited state to give a more consistent look to the site and better reflect its dynamic nature. However, having a visited state is specifically useful when exhaustively exploring search results or related videos, and so we are launching a new style for thumbnails and links to videos in related and search results: the thumbnail for visited videos is slightly grayed, and the link color has changed. This should help you explore the site deeper without going in circles.

YouTube @ The Streamy Awards in Los Angeles
Jumat, 09 April 2010
This Sunday, April 11, a handful of us here at YouTube will head to Los Angeles for the second annual
Streamy Awards
. The Streamy Awards are presented by the International Academy of Web Television to honor great original Web programming and visionaries in online entertainment.
As part of the ceremony, our CEO and co-founder,
Chad Hurley
, will be presented with the Streamy Visionary Award that recognizes “leaders and innovators who have made a significant contribution to the digital entertainment community.” On behalf of the whole team at YouTube, we are honored to be part of this event and have you to thank for it.
The greatest honors, however, belong to the creators of content, many of whom we are privileged to have as partners nominated for their own Streamy Awards.
NextNewNetworks
,
Rocketboom
,
Phil DeFranco
, and so many others: YouTube applauds you, your boundless creativity, and your independent drive to move the digital entertainment industry forward. You are all already much more than winners; you are reinventing the game itself.
The costs for filming and sharing original content are lower than ever. Today, anyone can record a video, add complex and sophisticated special effects and share it in
1080p Full HD
with translatable subtitles to the world -- all at the fraction of the cost incurred 10 years ago. And as this market matures, the rewards for these original content creators and distributors will increase.
In the future, you will play an even bigger role in inspiring and shaping the world through video. Viewership of original Web content grows larger and stronger every day, and the producers of those videos are ever more successful, as they continually hone and elevate their digital craft. Never before has talent possessed so much creative power and freedom. And never before has there been such an eager audience awaiting your vision.
Thank you and keep creating, uploading and playing.

YouTube's Top 10 Launches of 2009
Kamis, 31 Desember 2009
Did you know that we released more features in 2009 than in 2007 and 2008 combined? This made it the busiest year on record for the YouTube product and engineering teams. Some of these launches, like support for
1080p
, made sizable splashes, while others, like "trending topics" appearing at the
bottom of the browse page,
went out with less fanfare. With so much going on, we wanted to pause before the new year begins to review the things that hopefully made the biggest impact on your overall YouTube experience:
Auto-Share -
As part of our
wider effort
to integrate YouTube into the social and communication platforms you use every day,
AutoShare
automatically syndicates your YouTube
activity
to Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader.
1080p -
In November, we unveiled
support for videos in 1080p
(aka "full HD"). Want to test it out? Check out
this video
.
Auto-Speech Recognition -
Google's automatic speech recognition (
ASR
) technology, coupled with YouTube's captioning system,
makes videos more accessible to the deaf a
nd hearing impaired. This same speech recognition technology can create machine-generated captions, which can then be
translated into 51 languages
.
Mobile Website for Smartphones -
Watching videos on -- and uploading videos from -- cell phones is more popular than ever. To meet this demand, we launched
a new mobile website
designed to make using YouTube on smartphones like the iPhone, G1 and Palm Pre a lot easier.
YouTube XL -
YouTube XL
optimizes YouTube for large screens. In addition to offering larger text and simplified navigation, XL has a continuous play feature, allowing you to search for a topic, hit "play" and then kick back for an uninterrupted viewing experience.
VEVO -
VEVO.com
is a partnership that blends Google and YouTube's technology with music videos from a broad catalog of artists from Universal Music Group, Sony Music and EMI. The site hopes to redefine the way people watch and engage with music online, as well as change the way the digital and music industries do business with each other.
Feather -
Feather
is a stripped-down version of the page on which any video plays. Without all but the basic features, the page loads more quickly and videos play back faster. Give it a whirl in
TestTube
or click
here
.
3D
-
In July, one of our engineers used his free time to implement easier viewing options for
3D videos on YouTube
. Here's a brief
overview video
.
Real-Time Comment Search -
In October, we released the ability to
search YouTube comments in real-time
. The comment appears on a continuously updated results page, and "trending topics" indicates the hottest topics of conversation on YouTube at that particular moment.
Shows & Movies
-
In April, we rolled out
a destination
sporting hundreds of movies and thousands of full-length TV episodes. Offerings have included film classics like
Taxi Driver, Ghostbusters
and the
Spaghetti Western Trilogy
, as well as current TV shows from broadcasters like C4 and Channel 5 in the UK.
Which of these features is your favorite? Please use the poll in the top right corner of this blog to let us know what you've found to be most useful in '09, or leave a comment below if there's another feature that had an important impact on your YouTube life.

“The Beautiful Life” Makes Its YouTube Premiere
Kamis, 17 Desember 2009
Update (5pm PT)
: Wondering which YouTube videos inspire the creator of TBL? Watch Ashton's celebrity playlist
here
.
++++++++++++++++
Today we are teaming up with Katalyst, a studio for social media co-founded by
Ashton Kutcher
, and HP to bring previously unaired episodes of Katalyst’s television drama "The Beautiful Life" to YouTube at
www.youtube.com/TBL
.
The TBL series is being presented without commercial interruption by HP in connection with its
Create Change
program. As part of "The Beautiful Life" experience on YouTube, Katalyst and HP have asked the show’s stars and viewers to participate by recording, tagging and posting video commentary about how they will create positive change in 2010.
We're excited to bring first-run original programming like this to the YouTube community. The first two episodes of the series, originally aired on the CW, will debut today, followed by the remaining three episodes beginning on December 21. We're sure devout TBL fans will enjoy this holiday treat, and we think the show is likely to find many new fans through YouTube.
George Strompolos, Strategic Partnerships, recently watched
"The Beautiful Life - Episode 2."
Release Notes: 9/17/09
Kamis, 17 September 2009
We're back with a rundown of the new features and changes that went live recently:
Friend suggestions:
As mentioned in
a previous post
, we've started the first phase of the "find your friends" project with a module on the homepage that makes friend suggestions based on the email addresses of people with whom you've shared videos on YouTube in the past. (Suggestions based on your Gmail address book will come soon.) Recommendations will be limited to people who have the "let someone find my channel if they have my email address" flag set.
Activity subscriptions:
To this point, subscribing to someone meant never missing any of their uploads. But now, any new subscription you make will notify you of all public actions that user performs (uploads, favorites, ratings, comments, etc) in your Recent Activity module on the homepage. This should make it a lot easier to find cool videos: just see which videos your friends and other curators choose to interact with. (We've been calling this project "subtivity" internally.)
Trending Topics:
When there is a spike in searches on a given topic, we are beginning to tease that out on
our browse pages
to help you see what the world is watching on any given day. You might see the queries appear in a "Trending Topic" spotlight on that category's browse page or at the bottom of the page. We're testing how this performs and if it does well, we'll find a permanent home for it on the browse page and potentially more broadly on YouTube.
Sticky HQ:
When you switch to view a video in high quality and lean back to enjoy the wide player experience, having to lean forward again to switch the experience back on, video after video, can be a real chore. Moving forward, your choice is "sticky," meaning that when you "go wide" it will persist across your session. We're looking to make more of your video quality choices simpler and persistent so we'll be watching this one closely.
Effortless "More Comments":
Replacing the page-based system, we will now have a "Show More Comments" link at the bottom of comments that, when clicked, quickly appends 10 more comments to the end of the list.
New Discovery Features in Insight:
We've released three new features in our analytics tool that should give you more sophisticated ways of using
Insight
so you can better serve and understand your audience. Now you can access a "discovery over time" graph that combines data about your views with where those views came from; a "views from mobile" section where you can see which of your video's views came from mobile phones or platforms that use our APIs; and "views from subscribers" where you can more deeply understand how the homepage subscriptions module, the subscriptions page, and subscription email drive views of your videos. Full post in the
Biz Blog
.
Resume where you left off:
Let's say you're watching an epic (read: longer than 20 minutes) video, and you get distracted and click away. The next time you return to the video, it will resume where you left off watching, assuming you've watched more than one minute of the video and there are more than three minutes left.
Subscriptions comes to Shows, Movie Trailers:
Subscribe to your favorite shows on YouTube to never miss a new episode. Find the show you want to watch, go to its About page, click Subscribe, and episodes that hit your inbox will indicate the name of the show (as opposed to the name of the channel or provider). In addition, you can also subscribe to our
movie trailers page
to never miss any of these film promos.
Poster art in Movies:
Move over, thumbnails! Films in our movies section can now display vertical poster art if the partner provides it.

Who Would Win in a Fight?
Senin, 27 Juli 2009
Update (7/29):
Thanks to everyone who voted. Here are the final results of the poll.
+++
Among other things, YouTube is a place for healthy and vigorous debate. In that spirit, we're introducing a monthly blog entry embracing a popular question that never fails to elicit a colorful response: Who would win in a fight? Each installment, we'll be pitting two characters from YouTube Shows and Movies against each other in a no-holds-barred, free-for-all battle royale. To kick things off, we've got Juggernaut vs. Incredible Hulk.
vs.
For a truly expert opinion, we defer to
mrtennessen
, who has already mapped out what a possible deathmatch between the two titans might look like.
More importantly, what's your opinion? Vote in the poll at the top of the blog, or post video responses or comments to the X-Men and Hulk shows and movies to express a more in-depth point of view. If you can think of a good battle between characters from the YouTube
Shows
and
Movies
pages, post it in the comments below - the best idea will be featured in the next edition of "Who Would Win in a Fight?"
