More than just a competition...

Are you good enough to be "YouTubes's next top Vidder?" That's what the creators of this online competition are asking. But strangely enough, that isn't actually the competitions biggest concern.

For those unfamiliar, "YouTube's Next Top Vidder" is an online competition hosted by some of YouTube's more popular video editors. Over the years, these artists have gathered a quite following with hundreds of subscribers from all over the globe. In the competition, they create video editing challenges and act as judges for the new competing artists.

The goal of the competition though is not actually to find the "Top Vidder." While gaining the title would be nice, the point of this competition is to help some new, but talented video editors get exposure in the YouTube community. This may seem like an inconsequential goal to some, but anyone who's posted a video for the first time will realize how difficult it is to get feedback on their work. They're competing with millions of other people uploading every day. This competition is great way to gain exposure, and hopefully, some new subscribers in the YouTube community.
