What do you think about this new era of YouTuber Filmmakers?
118
YouTubers already have what studios spend millions trying to build:
• An audience
• Attention
• Community
• Trust

That’s why projects like Iron Lung, The Backrooms, and other creator-led films are starting to break through. These creators aren’t just making videos anymore… they’re building fanbases powerful enough to launch feature films.

Meanwhile, a lot of traditional filmmakers are still creating in a vacuum and hoping people show up later.

So what matters more today:
A great film?
Or an audience that already cares?

Are we entering a new era where the next major directors come from YouTube instead of film school?

And is this good for cinema… or dangerous for it?

Curious where everyone stands on this. 👀👇
