Unit 2 In class assignment 5

I believe that YouTube falls into the little film market and the little T.V market. Continuous series such as LonelyGirl15 cash in on the elements of the little T.V market producing 1-3 minute episodes. It encompasses this new idea that the viewer no longer has to watch the rigid hour or half hour installment of T.V. A series can be developed through shorter installments continuing from episode to episode. There are those self produced YouTube videos that have complete plots they carry through a complete idea as in a real film. Although they do not adhere to the strict time installment set forth by Hollywood producers.

Matt
I agree with your series being a little like T.V and a little like Cinema; but what does his have to do with the article.
Ling
Most YouTube videos are not longer that ten minutes, but it includes lots of elements considered to be a film.
Fred
Time does put it into its own category. But there are short films that are viewed at film festivals how is this different.
John
Some T.V shows are less than a twenty minute interval this is not the case for all shows.
