Geek Week på YouTube vecka 32

Nörda ner dig ordentligt

Mellan den 8:e till 14:e augusti kommer YouTube att köra något som de kallar för "Geek Week" där man kommer att belysa diverse YouTube-kanaler med mer eller mindre "geekigt" innehåll.

Varje dag under Geek Week kommer att ha ett särskilt tema och nästa söndag, den 8:e augusti, startar man med Blockbuster Sunday där man kommer att fokusera på tv-serier och filmer med geek-hjältar. Därefter följer Global Geekery Monday: Anime from Tokyo, Brainiac Tuesday, Super Wednesday (med premiär för Thor: The Dark World-trailern), Gaming Thursday och man avslutar det hela med Fan Friday. Läs mer om vad som kommer att dyka upp varje dag i pressmeddelandet som hittas lite längre ner i den här artikeln.

Pressmeddelande

YouTube geeks out with first-ever Geek Week: August 4-10, 2013

There's never been a better time to be a geek. From "Game of Thrones" and "The Big Bang Theory," to "Harry Potter" and "The Avengers," geek culture is everywhere, attracting and connecting ever-expanding audiences. Today's obsession with all-things-geek has sparked a global community on YouTube, enabling fans around the world to express their love of superheroes, comics, gaming, science and sci-fi.

With more than half of our top 20 non-music channels dedicated to geek culture, YouTube has become a top destination for fans everywhere to create, share and watch geek content. That's why on August 4-10 we'll celebrate this content with a special programming event: our first-ever YouTube Geek Week at YouTube.com/GeekWeek.

Produced in conjunction with geek powerhouse Nerdist in the U.S. and Channel Flip in the U.K., Geek Week will showcase more than 100 channels that fans love, unveiling new videos, series premieres and creative collaborations, as well as highlighting some of the best geek videos and shows already on YouTube.

Each day is hosted by a different YouTube channel, who will introduce the highlights of the day in a special daily video, as well as launch exciting new content throughout the week.

Blockbuster Sunday: A celebration of the iconic characters, movies and shows that define geek culture--plus a spotlight on the best original YouTube sci-fi, fantasy and animation. Hosted by FreddieW in the U.S., with new content from Tomska in the U.K.

Global Geekery Monday: Anime from Tokyo, comic book heroes from Delhi, and a celebration of Doctor Who. Explore geek culture from around the world. Hosted by YOMYOMF in the U.S., and including a special new episode of the British cult children's TV show "Knightmare."

Brainiac Tuesday: Science, education and knowledge channels that make YouTube the world's biggest platform for learning. Hosted by Veritasium and The Spangler Effect in the U.S., with an epic stunt from Head Squeeze and Flow from the U.K.

Super Wednesday: From hilarious parodies to real-life superpowers, explore superheroes, the supernatural and the super-weird. Plus, released exclusively for Geek Week, the trailer for Marvel's "Thor: The Dark World." Hosted by Stan Lee's World of Heroes in the U.S., and you won't believe what Fast Furious & Funny have done with an old Nissan in the U.K.

Gaming Thursday: A gamers' paradise, with live play-throughs, video games in real life, game-inspired original series and much more. Hosted by Machinima and Maker Studios' Polaris in the U.S., with a Guinness World Records gaming attempt live stream from the U.K.

Fan Friday: Sci-fi-themed cooking, incredible cosplay and impassioned nerd debates as YouTube's biggest fans take center stage. Hosted by Felicia Day of Geek & Sundry in the U.S., with an ultimate geeky quiz by Crabstickz from the U.K.

For our 3l33t geeks out there, keep your eyes out for Easter eggs all week, and you'll also be able to collect badges from the eggs and select #geekweek videos when logged in and visiting youtube.com/geekweek.
