An article by the New York Times discusses what video producers earn by posting their videos online–and the results are shocking. One person, a magician called Magic Roy, posted 30 short videos on MetaCafe and has earned over $13,000 so far. His videos of card tricks have been seen 1.4 million times.
MetaCafe pays producers $100 when their video has been viewed 20,000 times, and $5 for every 1,000 additional views.
Some other examples from the story:
Kent Nichols, aka Ask a Ninja, said he earned over $20,000 last year on Revver.
Ahree Lee, a graphic designer in San Francisco, earned “a couple of thousand dollars†in 2006 when a short film she had made became a hit on AtomFilms.com. It featured a fast-paced succession of still photographs she had taken of her face over several years, set to music composed by her husband.
Two people who mixed together Diet Coke and mentos and posted the video on the Internet have earned about $35,000.
Joe Eigo, a martial arts expert, has made $25,000 from videos of him showing his moves.
