WDC 48-Hour Challenge: Media Prompt | Prompt ▼

"Note: 48-HOUR CHALLENGE : Media Prompt Deadl..."

I haven't seen this particular video before, but I'm definitely no stranger to the "kids content on YouTube" space. Especially during the pandemic, we watched so many videos on YouTube with our kids, and they really love this kind of short-form content where they can jump from one video to the next after a few minutes.

As charming as this video is, I can't say it's been my favorite Media Prompt on the site; as much as my kids love these videos I've found myself getting tired of the "content creator" space on YouTube. And the self-published space on Amazon, to be honest. I've generally been a huge proponent of having no gatekeepers and everyone just being able to put their work out in the world for the world to judge ... but lately I've been swinging back in the opposite direction a bit and seeking out works that are produced by established media companies (books published through a traditional publisher, TV shows and movies from established companies and studios, etc.).

I'm glad a I had a chance to do another Media Prompt entry, though; the 6pm WdC time deadline on Fridays is 3pm my time, and I'm usually in the middle of the workday when I realize that I missed the deadline that I'd been meaning to get to for the past two days. Thankfully today was a slower day and I was able to spend a little time listening to the video and coming up with this entry.
