-[YouTube Shorts] is the [short-form section] of the american video-sharing app [YouTube]-
.
Shorts focuses on vertical videos at a maximum length of 60 seconds and various features for user interaction.
As of January 2022, Shorts have collectively earned over 5 trillion views since the platform was made available to the public on July 13, 2021, which include video views that pre-date the YouTube Shorts feature
Creators earn money based on the amount of views they receive, or through ad revenue
The increased popularity of YouTube Shorts has led to concerns about addiction for teenagers
.
History
Duration: 15 seconds.
A video of Endeavour docking at the ISS in a format suitable for YouTube Shorts
YouTube’s intent in the creation of YouTube Shorts in 2019 was to compete with TikTok,[4] an online video platform for short clips.
The company started by experimenting with vertical videos up to a length of 30 seconds in their own section within the YouTube homepage
This early beta was released only to a small number of people.
Shortly after TikTok was banned in India in September 2020, the YouTube Shorts beta was made available in the country
In March 2021, the beta was released in the U.S. and was later globally released on July 13, 2021
In August 2022, YouTube announced plans to make the Shorts feature available on its smart TV app.[9]
In December, YouTube published its annual blog post documenting the top videos and creators of the year, with Shorts receiving its own section of the post for the first time
At the annual Made on YouTube event in New York in September 2023, Google announced YouTube Create, a video editing app designed for YouTube creators, in order to facilitate the growth of Shorts.
At launch, the app was only available on Android
.
Features
YouTube Shorts presents user-generated vertical or square videos up to 60 seconds long
It allows users to add licensed music and on-screen captions
Viewers can scroll through an endless feed of videos
Although intended to be watched on smartphones, YouTube Shorts can be viewed on all other devices
.
YouTube Shorts includes features that are similar to those of TikTok, such as live videos, “collabs”, easy editing tools, and playlists
It also includes tools that edit long-form YouTube videos into YouTube Shorts
YouTube Shorts offers creators the ability to interact with viewers by responding to comments with additional videos, a feature primarily made popular by TikTok
Shorts creators can also use stickers to interact with their audience through formats such as Q&As
The Financial Times reports that fewer than 10 percent of creators use YouTube’s editing tools for Shorts
Many use TikTok’s tools instead, though videos with TikTok branding are downgraded from YouTube’s platform
YouTube Shorts added a feature that sends default reminders to users ages 13 to 17 to take a break or go to bed due to the increase in young users
There is currently no measure to restrict the use of the application
.
Usage
Since its inception in 2019, the usage of YouTube Shorts has continuously increased.
In September 2022, Alphabet announced that YouTube Shorts generated over 30 billion views daily
The number of monthly users also increased from 1.5 billion in 2022 to 2 billion as of 2023
The popularity of YouTube Shorts has caused some concerns within the company, with some believing that it will “cannibalize” YouTube’s long-form video content
YouTube’s official response is that Shorts is designed to be an additional format option for creators
.
Monetization
In August 2021, YouTube released the YouTube Shorts fund, a system in which the top Shorts creators could get paid for their work.
YouTube described this as a way to “monetize and reward creators for their content” and said it would be a $100 million fund distributed throughout 2021 and 2022, similar to TikTok’s $1 billion creator fund
YouTube told The Hollywood Reporter that the fund is “just a stopgap until YouTube develops a long-term monetization and support tool for short-form creators”
In September 2022, YouTube announced that Shorts would become part of the YouTube Partner Program starting in February 2023
The program allows eligible creators to receive a share of the ad revenue
Partnered YouTube channels can also utilize the ‘members’ and ‘supers’ features that allow users to pay a monthly subscription for the content or a one time donation respectively
YouTube Shorts creators receive a percentage of ad money earned on ads that play before and after their videos similar to YouTube
Creators on YouTube Shorts earn 45 percent of the ad money, while creators on YouTube earn 55 percent
According to the YouTube policies, creators who upload content with some degree of copyright infringement, non-original content, or other violations of the community guidelines will not be eligible for monetization
.
Health concerns
Researchers from the Guizhou University of Finance and Economics and Western Michigan University found that short-form videos like YouTube Shorts and TikTok may make it easier for young adults and children to develop addictive behavior because short-form videos provide “short bursts of thrills.”
These researchers found that college students in the U.S. and China watch short-form videos for entertainment, knowledge, and to build social identities
The Wall Street Journal reported that some parents are concerned about the effects of short-form videos on their children, as there is no way to disable YouTube Shorts or set limits
When children watch short-form videos, they learn to expect continual stimulation and fast-paced changes, which can cause problems when engaging in activities that require greater focus, such as reading
Recent studies highlighted the connection between short-form videos such as YouTube Shorts and the brain’s reward system, specifically dopamine release.
According to Dr.Anna Lembke, a psychiatrist and chief of Stanford University’s dual diagnosis addiction clinic, brief attention-grabbing videos act as powerful stimuli triggering dopamine surges akin to other addictive behaviors.
The rapid and easily consumable nature of short-form videos can elicit high levels of dopamine;
since dopamine serves as a motivator rather than a direct source of pleasure, individuals are compelled to seek rewarding activities and become addicted to them
Such neurochemical responses lead to addictive patterns and behaviors, entering a vicious cycle.
