The Nextlab story
• In March 2011, Youtube acquired a company called ‘Next New Networks’, a web television company, to create Youtube Nextlab, an audience development group that brought a structure to create high-class videos on Youtube.
• Nextlab organises workshops, gives out tools and other kinds of support to content creators in different Youtube geographies.

Nextlab has recently come to India and is developing strategies to penetrate the India
market to develop high-class content creators for the platform.
![Page 5: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The following slides represent some pointers on the strategies that Youtube can adopt to develop its Indian storyteller’s ecosystem.

The Market
India Is:• By nature a country of storytellers and
storylovers…
• The two biggest epics ‘Ramayana’ and ‘Mahabharata’ have been created in this country.
• One of the biggest nobel laureates in Literature has been from this country.
• One of the biggest movie industries belong to this country.
• Approximately, 823 television channels abound in the country producing 24 hours of content each.
• The country has about 18 official languages with various dialects – which means everyday print and radio content is being created in so many languages.
![Page 8: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Online India
India has about 73.9 million internet users now.
4G and 3G has started to penetrate the market.
People are used to viewing videos on the internet.
![Page 9: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
However
• It’s still a market where connectivity is still low.
• It’s a market where even though mobile phones have increased, the number of people viewing videos there is limited.
• It’s still a market where you are paranoid about your 3G limit exhausting fast for video playing.
![Page 10: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Therefore, how do we address the following problems?
1. Slow but growth of video viewing behaviour.
2. Not enough powerful content apart from advertisements and film content being viewed
regularly in the country.
3. Jostling with other screens – namely television, dvds, films for share of mind
![Page 11: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Let’s concentrate on the objectives in the reverse
order … and solve just one of them.
![Page 12: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Objective 3:To transform Youtube into the biggest
content destination in India.
![Page 13: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Which means…
You are technically competing with Star Network, UTV, PVR Cinemas, Inox, Fame, pirated
dvd sellers, BIT torrent, regional channels…
And the newly emerging movie platforms like Spuul.
… and some of other unlikely contestants like…

Coaching centers… youtube is internationally a
destination for training videos
Theater… extremely limited thanks to its stage based
performances, theater can go mass with youtube.
Political speeches and other self promotions.
![Page 15: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
So how do we drive this transformation…
Let’s look at the behavioural traits that NextLab can
address…

Now, I need a job – so let me turn to Youtube.
![Page 21: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
At the core of this intended behaviour, there is a small insight that is true for
the country as a whole…
![Page 22: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Every one wants a sensationEveryone wants to be sensational, but
they don’t always know how.
![Page 23: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Therefore, the way to go about it…
![Page 24: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Creating Youtube
Sensations in India Driving

Driving up viewership
![Page 25: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
And the method

viewing, sensations, etc. which creates aspirations among
others to create quality content for Youtube.
User Driven
User driven content is augmented by the aspirational content that Youtube channels
created through branded content drives.
The aspiration created by Youtube branded content is sustained by the user through an ecosystem that Youtube creates to enable the users to drive better
content.
![Page 26: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Let’s start looking at each…
1. Creating Youtube Sensations.
![Page 27: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Sensations are…
The stars who are driving
billions to the box office.

![Page 28: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Concept: Youtube Reach The Stars
A programme for directors – where you ask newbie directors to upload in an exclusive Youtube Channel.
Get a panel of directors to evaluate the films. Create a parallel crowd-rating option.
The winning 3 directors get to direct 3 top stars in their short films which will premiere only on Youtube.

![Page 29: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Therefore, the way to go about creating sensations
are…By creating a box office inside
Youtube and change lives.

![Page 30: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Value:
• You get new directors to create exclusive content for Youtube.
• You use the concept of ‘spikes’ used in popular television programming and amplify
it ten fold exclusively for Youtube.
• You drive high volume traffic and create special ad schedules during the premiere.
#1
![Page 31: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
In addition…
• You brand the entire channel with a client trying to enter India and drive an exclusive value for the client as well.
• This covers part of the costs.
• You also use that channel to drive word about Nextlab – by creating additional video about how NextLabs can help you become the next sensation.

![Page 32: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Sensations are…
Real behind the scenes stories that are relevant to your
daily life.

![Page 33: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Concept: Youtube Behind the Real
A programme for ‘citizen journalists’ to conduct operations on key issues around the country.
Drive it citywise… for example ‘DELHI – BEHIND THE REAL’
TAKE UP AN ISSUE EVERY WEEK – AND CREATE A SEPARATE CHANNEL ON IT. ASK PEOPLE TO UPLOAD THEIR VIDEOS ON HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT THE ISSUE, WHAT DO THEY SEE THE ISSUE.

![Page 34: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
VALUE THAT YOU DRIVE
TRANSFORM VIDEOS INTO A CONVERSATION MECHANISM AROUND EVERY DAY ISSUES.
TRANSFORM EVERY INDIVIDUAL INTO A SENSATIONAL ANCHOR.

![Page 35: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Sensations are…
Innovations that have the potential
to change the world.

![Page 36: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Concept: Youtube Releases
Create a platform on Youtube where products can be released on a daily basis.
Every day some company is trying to be innovative. You create a platform for that to happen. It’s nothing but
organising the concept and driving conversations around it.

![Page 37: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Sensations are…
People who break all odds to do
stuff…

Concept: Youtube PathBreakers
Create a channel for pathbreakers to promote themselves.
Create exclusive channels for them – in different categories and make it into like a newsfeed – where
pathbreakers can put their stuff up on a regular basis.

![Page 39: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Okay, let’s look at Point 2
Driving Appointment Viewing
#2
![Page 40: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Appointment viewing is how television soaps are
used. Youtube channels are trying to do the same in some way by creating channels. But…
How do you drive appointment?
#2
![Page 41: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Looking at the appointment viewing habits of people
• Appointment viewing allows for high engagement.
• Appointment viewing is driven by serialised content that keeps the momentum going.
• Appointment viewing needs strong characters/anchors to hold the audience.
![Page 42: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Looking at appointment viewing in the context of
India.
#2
![Page 43: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Concept: Simulcast Your Content
Insight: You might want to see a certain show but when it is
aired, you might not be before your television set. But in most cases, you will have your smartphone with
you.
Therefore:Partner with channels to simulcast their content.
#2
![Page 44: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Value
Youtube is already partnering with channels to present their content on youtube simultaneously.
Simulcast happens when new shows are being introduced. Youtube can present the option of channels simulcasting their content at the
same time on the site which works as appointment viewing and works on a revenue share basis where Youtube parts with a portion of its ad
revenues during the channel simulcast.
While this does not have high revenue potential– it allows for appointment viewing to be seeded in the platform and thereby allows
more engagement with the platform.
#2
![Page 45: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Concept: Learn The Art
A classic series on Learning the Art of entrepreneurship, fundraising, NGO management, career counselling, coaching, getting a job, etc.
Every week, Youtube creates an appointment with a particular speaker and gets a video appointment fixed with that person.
Appointment viewing is driven through:Branded youtube show on television channel listings in newspapers
as well. SMS notification to possible users before the show starts.
#2
![Page 46: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Value
“Learn the art” works as a platform for well known speakers to come and mentor others.
At the same time, Youtube creates provisions for others to create their own channels here
#2
![Page 47: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Value
‘Learn the Art’ can be a brand in itself driving a certain kind of content and allowing people to create similar kind of content on the web.
You can create a tagging system to the channel – where let’s say a ‘motivational speaker’ conducts a video on ‘how to influence your own life’ and similar speakers with the common content might want to add
themselves to the channel.
It drives viewership of the channel and also an ‘appointment’ ensures that you tune in the right time. An added google+ hangout right
after the video also can help in driving engagement.

![Page 48: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Now, let’s come to Point 3.
Driving Sensation Creators.
#3
![Page 49: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
The Problem
• Video is an effective medium… but not everyone’s an expert. If they can shoot, they might not tell a great story. If they tell a great story, they might not be able to shoot.
• Sometimes– You can teach someone to be an expert– Someone can teach himself/herself to be an
expert– Connect someone to an expert.

![Page 50: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Therefore, the solution that you have is to create
an ecosystemCan we create an ecosystem of video creators, i.e connect
storytellers to good video creators, get them to work together and drive content in the system.
This is where NextLab comes in with a huge value
#3
![Page 51: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
The way to go about it
Create trainings – both online and offline using
MOOC, classroom sessions, workshops, and simple training
videos.
Enlist creators and supporters – make
them available through a Service called Youtube
List. Facilitate the interaction between
storytellers and creators.
Drive individual heroes of content on a regular
basis.
Drive variety of content.

![Page 52: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Possible Impact
• Interesting marriages go online. • Children’s videos go online. • Happy days with family go online. • Homemade movies go online. • Political rallies go online. • Classroom talks go online. • Dating with girlfriend goes online.• Chat session with friends go online. • Needs go online (for example: Hi I’m Abhinav
and I need a girlfriend videos).

![Page 53: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
So, how does each cog function?
• Training videos on– Editing– Shooting– Camera controls – Types of camera to buy (can be facilitated
by camera companies). – How to use a still camera for shooting. – Using freeware on the net for video
editing. – Easy soundproofing your room techniques.

![Page 54: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
How does each cog function
• Trainings Offline:• Workshops with storytellers who have
mastered the art. • Workshops on how every day events can
become memorable on youtube. • Case studies of Youtube celebrities. • How to transform your camera into a
powerful storytelling tool (for example - when you are teaching, you can’t just talk about iphones but about Micromax Canvas). • How to capture the moment. • Shooting techniques.

![Page 55: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Some great trainers on storytelling
There are good regional film makers who have created great stories. The short films abound here. In fact, the students of Film
and Television Studies’ Institutes are a great fit for training up creators in Tier –II towns.

![Page 56: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Youtube list: The Idea
• There are several videographers around town – in every city, every town, every street corner. If you can’t hold a camera – they can help.
• There are several film and television enthusiasts passing out every year – they all have a chance.
• There are several people shooting on their phones and cameras and shooting well. They all have a chance.
#3
YYOUTUBE LIST IS A CONNECTION PLATFORM – WHERE PEOPLE CAN PUT UP THEIR VIDEOS, SKILLS FOR OTHERS TO CONTACT AND USE THEM FOR A FEE. GOOGLE WALLET CAN COME IN HANDY AS A PAYMENT PLATFORM HERE.
![Page 57: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
How does Youtube List work?
• It’s a merit list – you need to have put up at least three videos for others to evaluate you.
• You can name your price for hire.
• You will present your contact details on the list. • If people want to have a Youtube Video made – they
will get in touch with you.
• Google Maps comes in handy here in locating your nearest Youtube video creator.

And finally…
Create a recognition platform for every hardworking creator.

![Page 59: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Therefore…
Youtube City Hall of Fame
You create a master Hall of Fame for every city. Every individual creator with the maximum
number of hits gets featured here. When a user is uploading his/her video they can select it for the
City Hall of Fame by adding their city name.

![Page 60: A youtube storyteller's economy in india](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061213/547c2fbab379593a2b8b4f1b/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Which means…
• There are Hall of Fames for Chandigarh, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Raipur, Jaipur, etc.
• It drives a psychological effect: If I see my neighbour getting a million hits on Youtube even if he is a small town guy, I might also get interested.

In prospect…
Youtube needs to be like a Google for life… where anyone who needs to do anything can use Youtube to learn from it.

An exponential growth in Youtube Storytellers can only happen when:
• There is an ecosystem that supports storytelling
• The means of storytelling can easily be acquired by someone
• Storytelling has strong psycho-social benefits for the individual.
