About this Event
THE YOUTUBE EFFECT (2022, DraftHouse Films, 99 min.) Director Alex Winter (ZAPPA, DEEP WEB, FREAKED, and co-star of the Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure movies) explores the ascension and acceleration of YouTube, a video-sharing website that started with humble origins and has gone on to change how we experience the world. With exclusive access to some of YouTube’s biggest stars, the film presents an eye-opening and troubling look at the platform now so powerfully embedded in our lives. Featuring interviews with YouTube stars Anthony Padilla (7M YouTube followers) and Natalie Wynn (1.65M YouTube followers), and Susan Wojcicki (YouTube's longtime CEO, who recently announced that she will be stepping down).
A selection of the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival, “The YouTube Effect” may be a catalog of very recent history, but it serves the valuable function of connecting the many, seemingly randomly assorted dots into a clear narrative picture." - The Wrap
