Youtube Changes The Game (CPL 2.0)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scr1hB8DxKk

Above is a Youtube link to an episode of an on-line comedy series that I helped write. I adore Youtube, because it allows for quick and easy sharing of comedy, film clips, original content and music.

Youtube has really changed the game when it comes to film, television, music and comedy. Whereas the goal of most aspiring auteurs has long been to get a TV Show or otherwise land a contract with a large Entertainment company, todays would-be hit makers are employing a much more DIY approach. As Ellen Degeneres' recent signing of 12-year-old Greyson Chance demonstrates, anyone who 'goes viral' on Youtube is headed for stardom.

Whether or not this is a good thing is debatable. The fact that Youtube has changed the entertainment world forever is beyond debate.

Here's hoping Ellen notices me next!
