In addition to announcing new ways of monetisation, YouTube also introduced a new feature of publishing called Premieres. Premiers allows you to run a pre-recorded clip in perfect sync during a live session, The Verge reported.
The pre-recorded clip can be scheduled similar to how the live stream is scheduled to build hype. Viewers will be able to join through real-time chat. The new feature will be rolled out over the next few weeks.
"The addition of Premieres also means that features that were once limited to live only can now be used on prerecorded content, including for example, Super Chat, where users pay donations to have their comment highlighted and linger longer in a live chat. Premieres is set to roll out over the next two weeks and will first come to select YouTubers who were beta test partners," the report stated.
“Audience engagement is how you survive on YouTube,” says Amy Shira Teitel, a YouTuber who runs the Vintage Space channel who had been testing Channel Memberships. “Now instead of being in your separate live stream, you’re in the chat.”
