  • Women on Youtube: Exploring Identity Performances of Female Creators Using Intersectionality and Media Ecology
    WOMEN ON YOUTUBE: EXPLORING IDENTITY PERFORMANCES OF FEMALE CREATORS USING INTERSECTIONALITY AND MEDIA ECOLOGY Alyssa N. Fisher A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2019 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Lubomir Popov Graduate Faculty Representative John Dowd Sandra Faulkner © 2019 Alyssa Fisher All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Makeup tutorials, cooking demonstrations, cocktail recipes, fashion reviews: these are the topics dominating the content of some of the most popular channels on YouTube that are led by women. In this project, conceptualizing the ways in which women express their identity through everyday enactments of life in public and at home is examined through case studies of performances from four female youtubers. The platform’s emerging content, new practices of creative control, and distribution are shaping production, consumption, and the conversation about feminism and gender identity. Through the lenses of visual analysis, media ecology, critical feminist media studies, and performativity of gender, the study examines the established ways in which four women on YouTube enact their identities online, picking and choosing which identifiers, qualities, characteristics, and actions are shared in an effort to personify their chosen self. I first use a critical feminist framework and perform a qualitative visual analysis of YouTube videos from female YouTube creators. Findings include the setting and negotiating of content templates, collaboration, use of YouTube trending content, revealing intersectional identifiers, using comedic frames, dismantling the male gaze, and catchphrases. Secondly, an exploration and analysis are done on the media ecology of the YouTube Studio.

  • Panera Bread® Challenges Food System's Transparency With
    Media Contact: Jessica Hesselschwerdt [email protected] FOOD INTERRUPTED: PANERA BREAD® CHALLENGES FOOD SYSTEM’S TRANSPARENCY WITH WHOLE GRAIN COMMITMENT AND NEW DIGITAL PLATFORM First National Restaurant Company to Post Whole Grain Content in Breads ST. LOUIS, Oct. 16, 2018 – Panera Bread wants people to think about food, what’s in it and where it comes from, so they can make informed decisions about what and how they eat. Bread is in Panera’s DNA, and today the company announces it is the first national restaurant company to disclose the whole grain content of breads on its menu. On all breads over 50% whole grain, Panera now labels servings of whole grain per slice, roll or bagel, as well as the whole grain percentage, so guests know exactly what they are eating. The new labeling commitment coincides with the launch of “Food Interrupted,” Panera’s first-ever digital platform aimed at providing increased transparency. Each episode follows leaders in the food world as they meet everyday heroes who have dedicated their lives to changing America’s food system. The platform launches today with “Grains Interrupted,” in which chef Marcus Samuelsson and Weiser Family Farms’ Jon Hammond discuss the importance of ancient grains and their role in the future of food. "Food Interrupted" is now streaming on Facebook Watch; to learn more about the series, visit Food-Interrupted.com. Latest Transparency Commitment Challenges Restaurants Using Confusing Whole Grain Names Although the USDA recommends whole grains make up at least half of all grains eaten in a day, more than half of the country’s top restaurant chains do not offer a single whole grain option on their menu.

  • Thesis MA Newmediadigitalcul
    The Power of Content Creators Social Campaigns on YouTube Student Name: Bianca Andreea Banu Supervisor: Dr. Alex Gekker Second reader: Amanda Wasielewski Program: MA Media Studies Specialisation: New Media and Digital Culture Date: 26th of June, 2017 !ii !iii Abstract For a long time now, spreading awareness about different social causes has been done by using different media channels such as newspapers, magazines, radio, television or social media. These channels were and are the fastest ways through which a message is able to reach a high number of people. Nowadays, the new generation gathers their everyday information and news mostly through Internet-based forms of communication. Consequently, one of the most successful ways for both transmitting and gathering information is via social media, specifically by making use of Social Network Websites (SNSs). Therefore, it is important to further analyse the potential of such platforms and how successful they are in not only spreading awareness, but also getting people involved. Since its launch in 2005, YouTube has developed and emerged into something rather different than its initial purpose - that of a video sharing platform. The content which can be found on YouTube nowadays ranges from low quality amateur clips to high quality, well- produced videos. The creators of those videos have various aims, from sharing content with friends and families, to motoring their content as a form of income. Moreover, each tool and functionality present on YouTube has developed overtime as well as the potential uses of the overall platform. Therefore, it is essential that new researches should address the new affordances of the platform, and the practices that emerged as a result of the platform’s growth.

  • Youtube Star Hannah Hart's New Web Series Encourages You to Feed Your
    YouTube star Hannah Hart’s new web series encourages you to feed your passion In season one, well-loved cultural icons dish about life, pasta and the pursuit of passion May 16, 2016 Hannah Hart, YouTuber, creator of My Drunk Kitchen and New York Times bestselling author, knows how to have a good time over a good meal better than anyone. As the host of the new web series, While the Water Boils™, now live on YouTube and PassionForPasta.com™, Hart is once again doing what she does best with the help of cultural icons like Bill Nye and others who embody distinct passions. In each episode, Hart welcomes a different celebrity guest into her kitchen and delves into their passions — art, science, comedy, fashion and lots more. Season one showcases intimate interviews with Bill Nye, famously known as ‘The Science Guy’; Rachel Zoe, designer, editor, stylist, best-selling author and entrepreneur; and Hebru Brantley, Chicago-born artist, as they talk with Hannah about what drives them – all in the time it takes a pot of water to boil. @harto’s new web series, While the Water Boils, encourages you to #FeedYourPassion #PassionForPasta In this timeframe, Hannah gets an inside, hands-on look at what her guests have learned in the pursuit of their passions. For example, while the water boils, Bill Nye explains that “everything you do in the kitchen—from boiling water to experimenting with the perfect pasta pairings—is science.” This is the boiling point that defines the entire series – Hart spotlights accomplished professionals who have followed their passion and, in turn, their life stories inspire others to follow suit and make the most of however much time they’ve got.

  • Youtube Is the New Tube: Identity, Power, and Creator-Consumer Relationships in a New Culture (Cottage) Industry
    YouTube is the New Tube: Identity, Power, and Creator-Consumer Relationships in a New Culture (Cottage) Industry David Calkins Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In English Robert B. Siegle, Chair Kelly E. Pender Paul M. Sorrentino April 24, 2014 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: YouTube, identity, autonomy, culture industry, critical theory, television Copyright 2014 YouTube is the New Tube: Identity, Power, and Creator-Consumer Relationships in a New Culture (Cottage) Industry David Calkins ABSTRACT YouTube is a new kind of media, offering new ways to search for meaning and identity in the digital information age. In this study, I explore how the struggle to establish meaning and identity is played out in this new cultural space, centering on amateur creators as they navigate tensions and test semiotic relationships with their productions online. I first situate YouTube within a larger context of cultural criticism that sees meaning as socially negotiated by consumers as active participants with cultural productions. I then discuss television as a cultural force and the effects of a new digital territory for these forces. By grounding my discussion in an understanding of media ecology that assumes a more varied and diverse collection of available cultural material will yield a healthier media ecology and thus healthier cultural subjects, I argue that YouTube is a positive intensification of television because it allows more viewers to participate in and more importantly participate in this media system. I then use two particular YouTube creators (Philip DeFranco and Hannah Hart) to demonstrate how these ideas are articulated in practice and how this process is not without its own problems.

Pang, Ph.D. Date: ___________ The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. iii Sedillo, Ash (M.A., Theatre [Department of Theatre & Dance]) We’ll See You Guys Back on the Internet: How Digital Communities Complicate Live Performance Both On and Off-Line Thesis directed by Professor Bud Coleman This thesis illuminates the world of YouTube culture by analyzing how both fans and content creators use liveness as a way to connect to each other and create a holistic community experience. YouTube, and YouTube fan culture, complicates liveness by creating several different live experiences (both digital and IRL), often at the same time. YouTube content creators are skilled at utilizing both new technology and older forms of live performance to engage their audiences and provide an unexpected live experience. In this thesis I will explore how liveness entwines both creator and audience in a variety of platforms, including purely digital live experiences through live streams, online video conventions like VidCon that facilitate both a digital and physical live experience, and the recent trend of YouTube live shows that draw on traditional theatrical forms to create a physical live experience.

  • Popular Youtube Creators Align to Support Net
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 8, 2014 Contact: Paul DeGeorge, Executive Director, the Harry Potter Alliance, [email protected] Michael Weinberg, Vice President, Public Knowledge, [email protected] POPULAR YOUTUBE CREATORS ALIGN TO SUPPORT NET NEUTRALITY On August 20th, Public Knowledge and the Harry Potter Alliance began an initiative to recruit YouTube video creators to voice their support for net neutrality through the site www.VideoCreatorsforNetNeutrality.org. YouTube video creators are coming together to express one important view: without net neutrality, they would not exist. This is one of the first times that the online video creator community has come together around a policy issue that impacts them directly. Currently, over 11,000 unique creators have signed on to the website, representing over 150,000 videos and nearly 14 billion views. In addition to the website, video creators are being asked to make videos supporting net neutrality that can be shown on a giant billboard outside the FCC. Video broadcasts will begin on September 16th at 7am and continue for 36 hours. The campaign brings together many of YouTube’s most important creators including video bloggers (Vlogbroth- ers, Hannah Hart, WheezyWaiter), educational creators (MinutePhysics, Crash Course, SciShow, the Brain Scoop, Veritasium), and entertainers (EpicLLoyd, Improv Everywhere, Annoying Orange, Team StarKid). John Green (Vlogbrothers, Crash Course and best-selling young adult author of “The Fault in Our Stars”) notes, “Net neutrality allows independent content creators to reach audiences directly. Without it there would be no YouTube or reddit or tumblr and there would also be no vlogbrothers or crash course.” Net Neutrality is important to the online video community because the proposed FCC rules could allow Internet Service Provides to charge premiums to creators to reach their audience.

  • How Youtube Developed Into a Successful Platform for User-Generated Content
    52 — Elon Journal of Undergraduate Research in Communications, Vol. 7, No. 1 • Spring 2016 How YouTube Developed into a Successful Platform for User-Generated Content Margaret Holland Cinema and Television Arts Elon University Abstract Since its development, YouTube, the world’s third most popular online destination, has transformed from a video-sharing site into a job opportunity for content creators in both new and mainstream media. Based on content analysis, the study examined how three prominent YouTubers have created a successful personal brand. Analysis revealed the common characteristics that these online celebrities shared, the appeal of their content to viewers, and their use of traditional media to strengthen their branding. The study also found that younger viewers prefer watching YouTube videos because they were able to relate to the authenticity of user-generated content. I. Introduction On October 2, 2010, Felix Kjellberg uploaded a 2-minute YouTube video of himself speaking on camera while playing a video game. Today, Kjellberg, better known by his YouTube alias, “PewDiePie,” uploads to an online audience of more than 40 million subscribers. At just 24, Kjellberg has developed his online persona into a brand name that pulls in an estimated $4 million in ad sales a year (Kain, 2014). Kjellberg is not alone. An astonishing number of individuals have made YouTube their career. With consistent viewing from cable’s most sought-after age demographic, ages 18 to 49, YouTubers like Kjellberg have formed a virtual yet powerful relationship with their viewers (Luscombe, 2015). User participation helps in creating the stability of loyal audiences. The wide variety of content makes YouTube a place where just about anyone can find a video that interests them, whether they are looking for Kjellberg’s video game commentary or want to watch a beauty guru’s daily makeup routine.
