YouTube has been a boon for content creators around the world because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up providing them a platform to build a following on. However, many creators struggle to figure out what the latest trends are, and that makes them less likely to find success than might have been the case otherwise. Luckily, YouTube’s recently launched video series seeks to educate creators about whatever trends are emerging.
The first episode of this series has already been launched, and with all of that having been said and now out of the way it is important to note that it highlights five trends in particular. Firstly, there is the trend of virtual avatars which are essentially photo realistic renderings of human beings that are used as front facing hosts for audiences.
Another trend that is spoken of is that of narrative horror. Horror stories are a core component of the YouTube content landscape, with countless creators now using old school visual effects reminiscent of legacy media to imbue their content with more immersion and nostalgia with all things having been considered and taken into account.
Interestingly, a form of dancing that is typically incorporated in marching bands known as Majorette Dancing is also seeing a resurgence on YouTube. This is a great example of quirky trends that no one would expect, and creators can capitalize on them to grow their audience numbers by leaps and bounds.
The fourth trend that was discussed in this episode was rather simple, since it was basically just about how people wash their hair. In spite of the fact that this is the case, its emphasis on textured hair sets it apart since this is a topic that rarely gets mentioned.
The fifth and final trend highlighted in the first episode was the ever present nail art niche. Racking up over 5 billion views last year, this might be the single biggest trend that is visible on YouTube right now. All of these trends can prove useful to creators across the spectrum.
