Animated shorts have been produced in VR by other companies, but have lacked proper distribution. The show is currently broadcasting new episodes via Nickelodeon on Fridays.

YouTube Rolls Out a New Guideline for Producers to Monetize Content

It Takes Money to Make Money YouTube and Google have announced that new channels will need to have 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time within the past 12 months to be eligible for ads. This raises the bar extremely high for new channels to start receiving ad revenue. That being said, it also raises the debate on the motive behind content production on YouTube. When I started producing videos on YouTube in 2008 my main goal was to help musicians obtain larger audiences online. Ten years later, this is still my main objective, as well as helping bridge

Oculus and Pixar Team Together to Create a Unique Virtual World One of the best films of 2017 has recently expanded with a virtual reality component to provide additional depth to Coco. After watching the film in a theater, I found myself deeply engaged with the story and characters. Overall, I found that Coco was above average in storytelling, and when I found out about a VR app on the Oculus Store, I decided to check it out first hand. A piece to this application that I loved was the option to play it on Gear VR via the Oculus

Microsoft presents The Explanimators – Episode 1: An Animated Guide to Artificial Intelligence

By |May 1st, 2017|Categories: Entertainment, Featured, Film News, National News, Pop Culture, Tech News, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , , |

Artificial intelligence is helping make the world a more sustainable environment. Microsoft recently released a video covering the topic of AI and machine learning. The video points out that AI has helped increased yields for farmers up to 30 percent. It works as an excellent introduction for those unfamiliar with artificial intelligence. One element that bothers me is the narrator using a smartphone while driving in the video. Microsoft is developing an open source platform for their Aerial Informatics and Robotics Platform, but smartphone use while driving is illegal in some states for good reason. Over a dozen people a day
