Videos as well as video makers start off as amateurs simply capturing occurrences of everyday life but as soon the numbers of views increases and these people start getting paid, they then become a part of the corporate media. Is money solely the line that divides corporate videos from non-corporate videos? Videos begin as amateur videos but are then transformed to make profits.

Home videos such as these are the inspiration behind corporate attempts to commercialize special private moments in the family life in hopes of connecting and capturing the attention of their audience.
