Berklee YouTube Hack Day, March 2013

Berklee YouTube Hack Day (March 30 and 31, 2013) brought some of the best minds in social media and artist development and promotion to Berklee College of Music for a weekend-long workshop for Berklee students on how and why to use YouTube to launch their careers. A wide array of expert YouTube users presented individual presentations to arm students with the skills and knowledge they need to produce a video, then set them loose to do just that over a 21-hour period. The wide-ranging Hack Day program included sessions on how to gain confidence around recording and posting your videos; how to use the technology you have (or download some for relatively little cash) to produce compelling content; how to use tags and titles for optimal exposure; and more. On day two, the experts viewed and provided feedback on all submitted videos.
