YouTube has been offering ads on Shorts for one year, and the results have been encouraging thus far. In a blog post, YouTube Director of Product Management for Creator Monetization Thomas Kim revealed that “more than 25%” of the creators in the YouTube Partner Program are currently earning revenue from their Shorts.
Revenue sharing came to Shorts in February 2023, and a revamped Partner Program came with it. YouTube gave creators new ways to qualify for monetization by inviting in channels with at least 1,000 subscribers and 10 million Shorts viewers over 90 days.
Some creators saw quick results. Last March, special effects guru Zach King reported Shorts revenue that came at better rates than what he received on TikTok. The earnings have since become more widespread. Kim’s blog post revealed that 80% of the creators who qualified for the Partner Program via Shorts have also utilized at least one of YouTube’s other revenue streams.

Exclusive: Amid allegations of financial impropriety and corporate skullduggery, the collapse of the relationship between UTA and MediaLink founder Michael Kassan now sees the parties battling it out with competing legal actions and lots of finger pointing – even by Hollywood standards.
Having resigned on March 6 from the agency that bought his strategic company just over two years ago, Kassan took UTA to court first at the start of business Tuesday with a $25 million action demanding arbitration. The filing in LA Superior Court this morning from NYC-based attorney Sanford Michelman on Kassan’s behalf not only names UTA as a defendant, but also points the finger of responsibility directly at UTA CEO Jeremy Zimmer, who is named as a defendant too.
“This case is a result of Kassan resigning from MediaLink due to Zimmer’s breach of contract and repeated broken promises, and Kassan electing to waive his nearly $10,000,000 severance payment...

Twitch is adding a 60/40 revenue split for some streamers, and is lifting the $100k cap for streamers already on a 70/30 split as part of its Partner Plus monetization program.
It’s also opening Partner Plus to Affiliates, not just Partners, and as such is rebranding the program to just Plus Program.
For those not caught up, Twitch has been going back and forth on what cut it’s going to take from streamers’ revenue. The split used to be 70/30 (with streamers getting 70% and Twitch taking 30%) for all Partners. But, in September 2022, Twitch upped its own cut to 50%, something that—as you can probably guess—didn’t go over too well with streamers.
Around a year later, Twitch unveiled the Partner Plus Program, where Partner streamers could go back to a 70/30 split if they met certain criteria. Another notable part of that program was the $100k cap: Twitch would only pay...

In a career spanning almost two decades, actress Katrina Kaif has given many blockbusters making her one of the biggest stars in Bollywood.
Talking about what she looks forward to doing even though she’s touching the highs of highs, the actress said bettering herself as an artiste and making sure I do not fall into my own traps of trying to repeat myself or trying to maintain or sustain any image.
Asked when you attain such high stardom, what do you look forward to from there, Katrina told Ians: “Firstly, I think the love and the support that I’ve gotten from the audiences is incredible. It’s phenomenal and it will always be something which will always be one of the most special, special achievements I think or special occurrences. I would call it rather in my life as an artist. But I think there is no certainty.

YouTube is experimenting with a new use for its Shorts. It is preparing to launch an experiment that will allow some users to create public videos from individual comments.
The forthcoming test was announced through the Creator Insider channel, where YouTube regularly dispenses updates about new products. If you’re a true Creator Insider devotee, the idea of turning comments into YouTube Shorts might sound familiar. Last year, YouTube introduced a “Create a Short” button that lets creators post short-form replies to specific comments they receive. That update harkened back to the days of video responses, which were popular during YouTube’s early days but were discontinued in 2013.
There are a few key differences between that feature and the one YouTube announced on June 21. As a Creator Insider producer named Lauren explained, comment Shorts uploaded by viewers will only appear in the Shorts feed and the viewer’s channel — not in the original comment section.

For the second time this year, YouTube has introduced a new set of qualifications for its Partner Program. After bringing ads to YouTube Shorts on February 1, the leading video is now catering to live-streaming creators who rack up thousands of hours of watch time.
Since debuting the Partner Program in 2007, YouTube has tinkered with its eligibility requirements on several occasions. Long-form video creators previously gained access to the Program by accruing 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of public watch time over a 12-month period. When Shorts ads arrived in February, YouTube slackened its Partner Program parameters. Creators who haven’t received 4,000 hours of yearly watch time can still qualify for revenue sharing if their Shorts have received 10 million views over 90 days.

She said: “Recently I got sick from food poisoning due to which I had a very bad stomach ache so I consulted a doctor who asked me to get it checked because the pain was persistent, so I underwent sonography and discovered I had cysts in my stomach. The size of the cysts was comparable to that of a 10-week pregnancy. The doctor advised me to get the cysts removed because they were serious and could complicate and worsen my health if they were left untreated.”

Emmy winner Colman Domingo will star in Netflix’s upcoming limited conspiracy thriller “The Madness,” which has just received a series order under Chernin Entertainment’s (The North Road Company) first-look deal at the streamer.
In the eight-episode drama, media pundit Muncie Daniels (Domingo) must fight for his innocence and livelihood after he stumbles upon a murder deep in the Poconos woods. As the walls close in, Muncie strives to reconnect with his estranged family — and his lost ideals — in order to survive.
The project hails from co-showrunners VJ Boyd and Stephen Belber, who also serves as creator. The duo will also executive produce alongside Peter Chernin, Jenno Topping and Kaitlin Dahill. As previously reported, Clément Virgo (“Greenleaf”) will direct and executive produce the first two and concluding two episodes. Quyen Tran (“Maid”) and Jessica Lowrey (“Perry Mason”) will each direct two middle episodes.

As part of a live-streaming event called Made On YouTube, the biggest online video platform in the world made multiple announcements. In 2023, ads will begin running in between videos on YouTube Shorts. To compensate creators for the ad revenue they generate, YouTube will adjust its Partner Program to make monetization easier to enable on short-form channels.
The new ad format will bring Shorts monetization in line with YouTube’s other revenue streams.
This year, the theme of YouTube’s creator relations has been “multiformat.” The platform has repeatedly encouraged its community to post a mix of long-form videos, short-form clips, and live streams. Adding reliable monetization to Shorts will give creators a reason to adopt that approach.
“From a business perspective, the key benefit of Shorts for me is that they help me pull people into my community, whereas for long-form, it brings in a lot more revenue,” short-form star...

YouTube is adding some major things to Shorts—including ads and an expansion of its Partner Program.
But it’s also continuing to roll out smaller features and perks it clearly hopes will drive users toward making and watching content on its TikTok competitor.
This week, it debuted two newbies: the ability to address viewers’ comments directly in a Short; and Sounds on Shorts, a YouTube Music tie-in.
In regards to the first, Team YouTube said in a Community/Help Center post that it’s gotten creator feedback saying folks want to be able to “feature” comments they get on their Shorts content. The new tool allows that by popping up a “Create a Short” button when creators tap “Reply” next to comments on their videos.

A long-rumored revenue stream for YouTube‘s TikTok competitor is imminent. According to a report in the New York Times, YouTube will announce Shorts ads at an event on September 20.
The report cites audio from an internal YouTube meeting, which was leaked to the Times. During the meeting, YouTube VP of Product Management and Creator Products Amjad Hanif told employees that the launch of YouTube Shorts ads will usher in a new era for the platform’s Partner Program. The advertising option, which has been a primary source of income for a myriad of YouTube creators since its introduction in 2007, is likely to expand in the near future.
In 2018, YouTube mandated that creators must have at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of total watch time if they wish to enter into the Partner Program. If Hanif’s comments in the leaked audio clip are to be believed, those requirements are about to be slackened.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains details about Season 1 of Netflix’s Partner Track.
From Netflix, the streamer behind Virgin River and Sweet Magnolias, comes Partner Track, a new contemporary comedic drama series that combines the romance of Virgin River, the friendship of Sweet Magnolias with the corporate intrigue of HBO’s Succession.

The first season finds Ingrid in a love triangle with Nick, a handsome, rich, nice guy, and Jeff Murphy, a new transfer from the London office, with whom she once shared a one-night stand and clearly still has attraction to. She tries to do the sensible thing and commits to Nick by accepting his proposal,...

This article contains spoilers for Partner Track.
In 2013, Helen Wan published the acclaimed novel Partner Track and Netflix has officially brought the words to life in a new series starring Arden Cho. All 10 episodes of the first season are now streaming.
The story follows Ingrid Yun, a first-generation Korean American and the first lawyer in her family, and showcases the trials and tribulations of excelling at the prestigious (but old school) law firm, Parsons Valentine. Of course, her journey becomes even more complicated with love on the horizon.
The actress is perhaps best known for her role as Kira Yukimura in Teen Wolf from season 3 to season 5. Now, she’s bringing this incredibly fierce, intelligent, and determined book character to the screen while portraying situations that many women will (unfortunately) relate to.

Netflix’s upcoming romantic dramedy series “Partner Track,” set at a Manhattan-based white-shoe law firm, has been described as “Sex and the City” meets “Suits,” but for star Arden Cho the series is unlike any other that she’s seen on television. That’s because the story centers on a first-generation Korean American merger and acquisitions lawyer, Ingrid Yun (Cho), as she navigates everything from forbidden romance to microaggressions at the male-dominated company — something Cho said is hard to come by in shows about single 20-something women in New York City.
“Ingrid just sticks out to begin with,” Cho told TheWrap. “She is an Asian American woman, and there is some diversity at the firm but it’s very clearly noted. You’ve just got, ‘Oh, we’ve got a couple of people of color. Let’s stick them together, and that’s your diversity,‘ which is something we see happening in the world.

Remember Ali Haji, who played Naina aka Lara Dutta's son Rohan in the 2007 comedy film Partner, has now grown up to be a good looking teenager. And after 9 years, the young lad who didn't like Prem aka Salman Khan in the film, had a sort of a reunion when he recently met the Dabangg Khan on the sets of his controversial reality TV show Bigg Boss 10. Ali Haji was very excited to meet his mentor and favourite superstar Salman after so many years and certainly made him nostalgic at that moment. Once cute, now dashing, Ali was looking dapper in formal sky blue shirt and black pants teamed up with a pair of black loafers.

UnIndian
Starring Brett Lee, Tannistha Chatterjee
Directed by Anupam Sharma
Rating: * ½
UnIndian could well be titled ‘There’s a White Naked Man In Our Daughter’s Bedroom’, as one of the film’s intended high-points occurs when Brett Lee saunters out of his lady-love Tannishtha Chatterjee’s bedroom only to run into her shocked parents in the living room.
Nervously his towel drops off. Giggle.
The …errrr….joke doesn’t end there. Mira’s father stares at Brett’s crotch and exclaims, ‘You are not wearing a chaddhi.’
This stating-of-the-obvious business, we soon realize, is a force of habit in the film. Everyone is doing it all the time. Thrusting banal home-truths into our faces until we cry for mercy. But who’s listening? Everybody brown or white, is busy dancing to Bollywood beats manufactured in factory-precise doses for global consumption.
Come to think about it, from the opening shots...

If Bollywood were to compile a list of people getting a very unexpected surprise, then, possibly the one name which will top the charts is that of Umesh Ghadge. For starters, Umesh, who is making his directorial debut with the third instalment of Kya Kool Hain Hum, was an assistant to filmmaker David Dhawan (in films like Partner, Main Tera Hero) before taking a plunge into direction.
Recently Umesh, who was shooting for the film in Juhu, was in for a huge surprise when David Dhawan dropped by his film set in Juhu and took an impromptu decision to shoot a couple of scenes. According to the film's spokesperson, after seeing the film's footage of that particular day, David got so involved in the film that he landed up shooting two scenes in the film.

Salman Khan's sister's wedding reception held on Friday night at the Taj Lands End in Mumbai was attended by all of Salman's friends who couldn't make it to the wedding at Hyderabad. That included Shah Rukh Khan with whom Salman had a high-profile patch-up last week. Shah Rukh arrived at the reception at 2 am, thereby proving that he was indeed a night bird. Says an invitee, "Shah Rukh Khan came very late but was in his element even at that time of the night. He chatted with the bride and her husband, with Salman-Arpita's parents and danced with Salman." Salman's buddy Govinda who is in the limelight again after the rave reviews for his two back-to-back releases couldn't go to Hyderabad for the wedding as he was promoting the two films. He was at his chirpy best at the wedding reception and seen in a long amiable conversation with his pal-director David Dhawan,...

Happy Ending marks the return of the winning combination of Raj and Dk, Illuminati Films and Sachin-Jigar (Go Goa Gone). Needless to say, listeners have reasonable expectations from the music of Happy Ending.
The album consists of 6 tracks written by Amitabh Bhattacharya and features the vocal talents of Rekha Bhardwaj (‘Ghagra’ – Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani), Arjit Singh (‘Tum Hi Ho’ – Aashiqui 2) and Papon (‘Tu’ – Bobby Jasoos) amongst others.
The album commences with Mileya Mileya. The unprecedented combination of Rekha Bhardwaj, Jigar Saraiya and Priya Andrews is surprisingly good. Rekha’s semi-classical vocals against a background of a mostly contemporary track, makes for an interesting listen. The melody is instantly hummable and the minimal lyrics are effective. However, it’s the signature saxophone that makes the track worth your while.
Barring Amitabh’s relatively humorous lyrics Paaji Tussi Such a Pussycat is quite unremarkable. It ceases to amuse after...
