Week 9 - Continuing with YouTube & other related websites

In past blog posts I've talked about YouTube as a starting platform to upload your work to and have an audience be able to watch and give feedback directly to you. However there are other web sites on the net that offer a similar experience to YouTube. The first is a animation focused site called Newgrounds.

The next video based site is Blip. Blip is more similar to YouTube than any of the others and offers a wide range of genres from comedy to animation. From what Iv'e heard Blip is a lot more easy on restricted content and copyright issues however this could have changed.

The final site I've seen is Fillim, how they differ from the others is they give the creators the option to charge users for their content. However if you're charging for your film or short film the content is expected to be worth the price or you can set your film as free of charge. Uploading your film is free to do to.
