The creative media field encompasses a diverse set of sectors
that intersect and employ a significant number of people in positions that span several industries. Television, film, radio, digital media, computer game production, photo imaging, news, marketing, and advertisement are among these industries. In so many respects, the modern creative media industry has grown and improved, and became scarcely recognizable from its initial structure. The internet is the biggest change to the industry giving companies freedom to be able to advertise and promote in ways they never could before while reaching a larger audience.
Due to Covid-19 the entire entertainment industry and
therefore creative media sector has become online only. Companies like Disney and HBO have shifted a large majority of there 2020 films that were to be released in cinemas onto streaming services instead, and sites like YouTube and Twitch saw a significant spike in viewership.
The creative media industry right now is a probably the
strongest it's ever been thanks to its rapid expanse of content. In the today's age it has become incredibly easy for people from anywhere of any age to start making content, and the internet has given home to new types of content for people to watch such as YouTube videos that cover any range of topics, to everyday people livestreaming on apps like Instagram or sites like Twitch.
