Ten years ago in May, YouTube launched in beta.
From the silly to the profound, from the personal to the political, we’re celebrating a decade of your creativity and self-expression. And, we’re doing it from A to Z.
With over 75 references and 18 filmmaking styles, we’ve tried to capture some of the richness and variety of YouTube from the last decade.
