YouTube to increase video length of Shorts to 3 minutes

Todd Sherman, Director of Product Management, YouTube Shorts;

Starting on October 15, you can upload Shorts up to 3 minutes long. This was a top requested feature by creators, so we’re excited to give you more flexibility to tell your story. This change applies to videos that are square or taller in aspect ratio, and won’t affect any videos you uploaded before October 15.

Youtube introduces Shorts as a way to compete with Facebook’s reels, IG’s Stories and Tiktook. Youtube Shorts’ limit is currently at 60 seconds and the increase to 3 minutes will give creatives more ways to include more content and flexibility in their shorts.

Youtube added that “they are working on improve recommendations for longer Shorts in the coming months.”

Things That You Need to Know Before Watching Nimona

Netflix just released the full animated film Nimona on its channel four days ago. The story centers on Ballister and his shapeshifting sidekick, Nimona.

Nimona was Blue Sky Studio’s last project before shutting down. Blue Sky Studios is the team behind the widely successful Ice Age series, Rio, and Spies in Disguise.

Due to economic uncertainty, Blue Sky Studios had to shut down before they got the chance to finish the project. However, previous employees at Blue Sky Studios still worked on the project to bring it to life.

The film had been in the works since 2015, and the release date originally scheduled for a 2022 release. Disney also rejected the film, stating that it contained LGBT themes, as revealed by an interview by three former Blue Sky Studios employees.

In a fortunate turn of events, Annapurna Animation picked up the project and brought it back from development limbo. The voice cast for Nimona includes Chloe-Grace Moretz, Riz Ahmed, Frances Conroy, and Eugene Lee Yang.

The film received positive reception by the audience, scoring a high 7.5 in IMDb.
