This week in lecture we learned about Crowdsourcing! Things that only professionals where doing before, are now open to 'anyone' out there online! Kind of like a online mass contribution! The users get to be a part of something much bigger, and the organizations or companies get to save money. A lot of bands are making music videos with the help of fans shooting some of their own footage.
One example is The Beastie Boys concert film, where they asked fans for concert footage and then pieced it together!
Another example is how Pepsi held a contest, where artist could submit new Pepsi can designs. The winner won $10,000 and their design was printed on certain cans.
Crowdsourcing is a great fun and easy way to get fans and users involed!
