“At YouTube, we’re not just re-imagining video – we’re re-imagining
brand-building on the web.
The world’s most important brands are increasingly looking to reach the diverse
audiences YouTube attracts, which is why Unilever, Toyota, GM and AT&T have
already jumped on board and are building their brands alongside these new
YouTube channels”

“Until research is done on the motivation of video game developers and the
publishers they work for, we can only make educated guesses as to the
overwhelming lack of diversity within the industry.
We can be certain about one thing, however. From the press to the games they
cover, the absence of African American or Hispanic characters is limiting its fan
base, its narrative potential, and its creative ideas.”

African Americans and Hispanics spend
more time and buy more video games
than the general market
Tied for third as the largest online
activity
Studies show that less than 3 percent
of characters were recognizably
Hispanic
The same study showed that African
Americans had a rate of 10.7 percent,
but were mostly athletes and gangsters
Focus on the positive imagery of
culturally relevant content (Hip Hop,
HBCU’s, Faith Based, etc)
Examine product placement and
integration as a strategy
Use social media as a strategy to
control marketing costs
Given that Multicultural consumers
over index in portable device usage,
examine this as the ideal platforms
