Over the past few months we have seen YouTube work very hard to keep its top content creators from moving to its rivals. It launched YouTube Spaces in a handful of countries around the globe to provide content creators with studio space and equipment so that they could create better videos. YouTube also launched the Creator Hub for this purpose. Now it’s teaming up with some of its top creators to bring more original series to the world’s biggest online video website.
YouTube has also announced a collaboration with AwesomenessTV. Together the two are going to release several feature length films over the next two years which will star YouTube’s top creators and will be developed and produced by AwesomenessTV’s Brian Robbins.
These feature films will first be available on YouTube before they are released elsewhere, YouTube believes that this will set a “new distribution paradigm for years to come.” The first film is destined for release this fall.
The creators that YouTube is directly partnering with include some of the biggest names on the website, such a Smosh, Prank vs. Prank, Joey Graceffa and Fine Brothers’.
This is an effort on YouTube’s part to keep some of its biggest creators happy and ensure that they get the most out of YouTube.
