💫 The Quiet Battle for the Soul of YouTube

Meet the wave of creators focusing filmmaking and storytelling over retention and algorithm-chasing. The feelings of the work from many of these creators is very nostalgic and reflective. But, when gathered together, the energy of creatives is insatiable — as seen in the photos from Creator Camp’s first retreat of 30+ young artists. Though “The Quiet Battle for the Soul of YouTube” is built on the emotional and artistic films, it’s driven by goofy, energetic, scrappy filmmakers full of heart. These collages are inspired by the energy of these artists and the mediums they use in their videos.
