LOS ANGELES — David Ma, a film director in Brooklyn, never had the money to go to film school. And though he loved shooting films, he was largely shut out of the types of opportunities reserved for big-time directors with Hollywood connections. Then came TikTok.Ma joined the app in 2020 and immediately amassed a following for his unique directorial style. Studio executives and Hollywood bigwigs noticed, and suddenly, Ma was landing directing jobs. The entire trajectory of his career changed.
TikTok’s biggest stars and thousands of small businesses, it could deal a massive blow to the entertainment industry, forcing movie studios, record labels, casting directors, Hollywood agents, and actors to radically shift the way they do business.“TikTok is the most democratized content platform we’ve ever had and it has revolutionized Hollywood,” said Adam Faze, studio chief of FazeWorld, an entertainment studio that produces scripted and unscripted shows.
The poll found that 53 percent of non-White adults used TikTok in the past month, compared with 29 percent of White adults. Fifty-nine percent of Americans ages 18-34 used TikTok in the past month, compared with just 13 percent of those 65 and older.TikTok users are also more likely to have lower incomes — 45 percent of those with household incomes of under $50,000 used TikTok in the previous month, compared with 32 percent of those with incomes of $100,000 or more.
“Three weeks into doing the show, we went to London to shoot an episode, and we were getting chased down the street by kids saying, ‘This is my favorite show,’” Faze said. “TikTok helped the show find an audience in a way that would have taken years in traditional media.”Unlike platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram, TikTok bills itself as an entertainment platform, not a social network.
TaylorLorenz Now that's good reporting
IdeaGov I will give a shit about this trivial crap as soon as we fix the gun problem.
Is that why all of the new movies recently been cringe trash?
Nonsense- within a few months, there will be another version of TikTok - hopefully, not feeding intel raw data to the CCP for future compromise.
Just tell them, everyone is hurting.
Tragic.
Stop crying…..Musk will revive Vine, and all will be well in six months.

If Tik Tok is banned will we also see privacy laws for everyone else? Europe did it.
