Lives of YouTube “Weblebrities” Chronicled in Upcoming Documentary
The
increasingly popular world of new media has introduced online viewers across
the world to a diverse group of individuals in cyberspace. YouTube.com has emerged as one of the
leaders to catapult an Average Joe into an instant “Weblebrity” with the stroke
of a computer key. Meet six folks
in the feature documentary “Butterflies” who share the common goal of becoming
internet sensations via YouTube.
Each
real-life character in the documentary has made a presence online, with
thousands of subscribers following their daily lives and video blogs. “Butterflies” is being presented by
NewFilmmakers Festival, which gives independent filmmakers an opportunity to
present their work in front of audiences in New York, NY. Ester Brym, producer, director and
editor of the documentary, is thrilled to showcase her work at 6:00 p.m.,
October 15th, 2009 at the La Femma Film Festival in Los Angeles.
“This
opportunity to showcase YouTube on a big screen will go down in history because
right here, right now, the traditional and new media are merging” Brym
said. “Each character in the film
represents each one of you. The girl next door, the talented musician, the up
and coming actress or the regular guy, who always makes you laugh.”
The film has won the Alan J. Bailed AOF Excellence Award and has been
nominated for Best Social Commentary Award 2009 by the AOF International Film
Festival.
Trailers
for the film have begun circulating online and The Internet Movie Database
(IMDb) has information listed about the project, characters and
production. For more information
