Celebrating some of the most popular YouTubers
and their channels/projects, we attended screenings for Mitchell Davis and
Weezy Waiter. The YouTuber and his M.C./pal introduced each video clip in an
interview format. While not well rehearsed, these exchanges were charming in
their genuineness. The screenings were followed by "meet-up's", where
the fans got an opportunity for a private chat and a photo. These generated lots of excitement.
Our final screening was the first episode of
Video Game High School 3, a series which will end after season 3 is complete.
The series was made possible through funding by the fans. The producer called
in for Q & A after the film and there were quite a few committed fans in the
audience.
Buffer Festival ran for 3 days, supported by
uTube, with screenings at the TIFF and Scotiabank Theatre. Our schedule was planned by my teen
daughter and I was dragged along, as she hasn't yet found friends that share her
passion. She was not disappointed and I quite enjoyed this window into her
world.
