VidCon, which bills itself as a celebration of online video and digital creators, launched VidCon Now, an ongoing digital experience this past summer. This December, VidCon Asia will program local VidCon Now sessions featuring industry leaders and talent, as part of the Singapore Media Festival, supported by the Infocomm Media Development Authority.
The sessions will launch on December 3, with new VidCon Now Asia sessions programmed afterward on a bi-weekly basis.
The VidCon Now Asia launch will be a 3.5-hour virtual event focused on the current state and future of online and community-led media in Asia. It will feature insights from online video platforms as well as creators exploring how they have moved from pitching other products to building their own brands and turning them into big business. It will also focus on the future of influencers, as the worlds first synthetic AI transhuman and her creators share how AI will change media and marketing forever.
VidCon Now Asia bi-weekly programming will be scheduled throughout 2021 across all three of VidCons established tracks Community, Creator, and Industry presenting a mix of workshops helping creators and business build bigger audiences and drive more revenue, fireside chats and panels to help the media and creative industries understand the future of creator-first media, and discussions of the issues facing media and marketing as it transforms from linear to on-demand and always on.
Attendees can view and register for programming at VidCon.com/now. New programming, creators, and speakers will be updated bi-weekly and available online in month-long increments.
Southeast Asia is one of the most innovative places in the world, with a huge pool of creative talent, said Jim Louderback, GM VidCon.We are thrilled to once again be part of the Singapore Media Festival and continue to bring the worlds experts to Singapore while we celebrate and include local businesses, creators, and experts. VidCon Now Asia will help drive the entire media ecosystem forward as creator-first media takes over more and more of media consumption, advertising dollars, and creative and technological innovation globally and in Asia.
VidCon Now will be co-produced by production partners Branded.
