Three month worldwide streaming specials kick off in August On August 16th, The Ed Sullivan Show’s official YouTube channel begins a tribute to one of rock ‘n’ roll music’s most iconic talents with a special rollout of performances that spanned three appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show. That Elvis Presley became the King of Rock ‘N’ Roll is pop culture legend, and, at the dawn of the modern television boom, America’s most popular variety program catapulted him to the throne when 60 million viewers — more than two-thirds of all TV viewers at the time — tuned in to watch his debut on the program. “Appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show meant everything to Elvis,” said his lifelong friend, associate, and colleague Jerry Schilling during an exclusive interview recently with Andrew Solt on August 6, 2020. “At the end of his third appearance when Ed Sullivan goes over to Elvis and says, ‘I wanted to say to Elvis Presley and the country that this is a real decent, fine boy. We have never had a pleasanter experience on our show with a big name than we had with you; you’re thoroughly alright. Let’s have a tremendous hand for a very nice person.’ When you look into Elvis’s eyes at that moment, you knew he felt accepted and sincerely proud. Ed had given him that endorsement.” Nearly 50 years after The Ed Sullivan Show wrapped its final episode and charmed TV viewers for the final time on Sunday night June 6, 1971, it officially joined the streaming universe to live on forever on June 12 thanks to the deal between UMe and SOFA Entertainment Inc. to globally curate The Ed Sullivan Show, encompassing the influential television program’s historic 23-year primetime run on CBS and marking the first time performances and guest…

August 13, 2020 | 10:24am Jake Paul is firing back. The controversial You Tube star posted a since-deleted video that addressed the FBI federal search warrant on his Calabasas, Calif., home earlier this month. The raid turned up a cache of weapons amid complaints from neighbors who claimed to have heard regular explosions coming from the YouTuber’s mansion. “Just to clarify things and set the record straight, the FBI raid is entirely related to the Arizona looting situation that happened,” he said.
”It’s an investigation. There are rumors about it having to do with so many other things that have nothing to do with me or my character and the s–t that people are making up is absolutely absurd.” FBI units are seen leaving Jake Paul’s home.IXOLA / BACKGRID In June, Paul, 23, was charged for being part of a “riot” in which looters stormed an Arizona mall. He insisted that he was only documenting the looting when he was caught on video. Scottsdale police charged him with criminal trespass and unlawful assembly which are both misdemeanors. “Gimme my charges and let’s put the focus back on George Floyd and Black Lives Matter,” the YouTuber tweeted shortly after the charges were announced. Paul — who has over 20 million YouTube subscribers — seemed to place the blame for the raid on someone in his circle. “That being said, when I become aware of someone around me who is doing malicious things they are immediately cut out of my life. I don’t put up with bulls–t, I don’t surround myself with bad people. If someone does something bad, they will be removed from my life.” The social media star also landed himself in hot water for throwing a raucous party in July despite renewed COVID-19 restrictions. Video footage showed dozens of people without masks…

In another video, the same woman, named Un A, is wearing a tracksuit and sneakers as she jogs along the capital's Taedong River on her day off. "Today I'm going to show you what Korean people do in their free time, OK?" she says. "I would say the most popular way of spending time for us is doing sports ... like basketball, volleyball, table tennis."

One thing we have loved about Google and its platforms is that they always remain transparent about what people are searching on it. This does not mean that the data is shown in real-time but the fact that this data is shared is great for marketers who are looking to target people based on the same. One thing to note is that Google, along with YouTube shares insight into how people are using the platform and what they are searching for. As we all know, a pandemic is going on right now meaning that the search trends will be greatly influenced and we also want to know what people are searching. And we are happy to report that YouTube’s report has been published which highlights that trends of searchers show everything people have watched on YouTube such as learning skills and improving their wellbeing. One trend that everyone knows was trending on YouTube was that of dalgona coffee and we are sure that you must have tried it as well just as we did. However, the bigger trend over the course of these months was making Sourdough bread which was trending in Brazil, Germany, Brazil along with other countries. It is unusual according to YouTube for most countries around the world to such for a similar topic but so did they with the searches for cooking tutorials absolutely rocketing. Also, topics such as Yoga, Guided Meditation, Home workouts, Nature Sounds and others had their views up by more than 50% on average since March and they all fall into the Self-care category which was the category coming at No. 2 in being searched the most. Also, videos of topics such as gardening or “how to cut hair” as well as video call beauty tips were also emerging on top which…

(Image: Shutterstock) Game streaming has rapidly become one of the more popular ways to make money on the internet. However, it’s hard to know where to start. Amazon-owned Twitch dominates the market, so there are few legitimate alternatives. In late July, Microsoft’s Mixer shut down, making YouTube Gaming one of the only viable options.  If you want to give it a try, this guide will show how to set up your channel and get on camera.Set Up Your ChannelYouTube Gaming has taken a few different forms over the years, but most recently it lives as an alternate tab in the usual YouTube interface.

Toei Animation, Kodansha and other anime content providers have banded together to start a channel on YouTube. The goal is to have 30 companies providing 3,000 anime titles by 2022, with the number of views per month reaching 300 million. Called Animelog, or Anilog, the channel was launched Friday by Analyzelog, a company that supports corporate digital strategies. The target audience for the channel is currently local, but there are also plans to add sub-titled content in English and Chinese for overseas fans. Content at launch includes: the “Black Jack” series, based on a famous Osama Tezuka manga, and which was aired in the 2000s by Yomiuri TV; and “Future Boy Conan,” a 1978 anime co-directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and produced by Nippon Animation. Several Japanese companies such as Kadokawa (publishing) and Toei Animation (anime production) now operate their own anime channels on YouTube. But the partners argue that, by joining forces, they can grow their audience, and advertising revenues, more quickly than they could individually. According to the Association of Japanese Animations’ survey for 2019, the industry enjoyed record growth for the sixth straight year, with earnings totalling $20 billion. Streaming grew 10%. “There exists a problem of illegal video distribution service these days, but “AnimeLog” will distribute only officially-licensed animations and operate as a safe channel that families can enjoy together,” said Analyzelog in a statement. Analyzelog was formed in 2018 with seed capital backing from U.S. venture investor “Next10 Ventures” and its founder Benjamin Grubbs. It has since struck numerous business and investment alliances with companies including Toei Animation (December 2019), Shogakukan (April 2020), and last month with animation studio Shin Ei Animation (“Doraemon,” “Crayon Shin Chan”).
