Benny & Rafi Fine: Brothers let 'Kids React'... →
We are spotlighted in today’s issue of “Variety”.
Steve Jobs
Without Steve Jobs we, and many others in countless industries would not have been able to accomplish and be where we are today. Our mother raised us on Apple computers, and we barely remember life without innovations Steve Jobs helped bring to the world. This is a substantial moment to reflect on how one man played such a pivotal role in not just one industry, not just one country, but...

7 YEARS OF WEB VIDEO
September 21st, 2004 - We uploaded our first official web video. Every year on this date we pause to reflect on how far we’ve come. Since last year we have seen our content explode in a way we never thought possible, as we hit major milestones of a million subscribers on YouTube off the huge success of “Kids React” a show where our passion lies in championing having opinions...

Thoughts on the baseball fan passing away in Texas
When I was a kid, baseball was my life.
Growing up in such a stringent religious environment, baseball was that escape for me even at a very young age. Anyone who loves baseball or went to games as a kid knows there is nothing more magical, and nothing you want more than to get a baseball from one of the players. It’s something I wanted more than just about anything.
On a night in old Yankee...

Thoughts on the Tragedy in Arizona
As most of you know, a congresswoman was shot today in Arizona during an event at a grocery store to bring out her constituents to discuss issues face to face and someone (and possibly a second person) opened fire, gravely injuring her and killing six people. It’s a lot to take in.
I feel like people around my age and younger don’t have a full realization of the horrors of the world...

Directing Shane Dawson's XMas Special

As Jack would say, “WE HAVE TO GO BACK!”, only we never left the Island even after the real LOST ended earlier this year.
Our show “LOST: What Will Happen Next?” that turned into “LOST: What Will Happen Now?” once the real series ended, has been one of the most popular online series of all time, which looking back...

Media Continues to Miss the Mark on Web Video
Today (9/26/2010) at 3:30 PST CNN did a report on what seems to be the buzz topic of the fall, the reality of mass audience and monetization the very few of us have been able to gain on YouTube. They showed a pre-made piece on Julia Nunes</a> (who we have been a huge fan of for years), and had a live interview with an executive from YouTube alongside top content creator (we are not fans of...
6 Years Making Web Video
It was our 6 year web video anniversary yesterday. With that, we present, a bit of Fine Brothers history:
By September 21st, 2004 we were a year into development and production of our 3 1/2 hour long trilogy of feature films “GI JOE THE EPIC SAGA”, and on that day we re-launched our website to house videos we had previously created as well as two trailers for the trilogy....

Top YouTube Earners: True Pioneers of New Media
This is a blog post in response to the negative articles coming out last week about a small number of YouTubers making 6 figures from the ads running on their content, as well as some people within the web video community’s response to it. It is mind-boggling to see how other people’s success can be used and twisted to a negative instead of appreciating, learning, and rising up to make the space a...

2010 Streamy Awards- Our Thoughts
There are many out there expressing opinions on what will go down for the relatively small amount of people who will even remember this as infamous in the shaping of this space. We have been vocal to so many around the community as well as when speaking on panels at conferences and events or consulting, but never really allow ourselves to let out our strong opinions online. We believe it’s...
