YouTube Creator Studio: Winter Olympics

YouTube Creator Studio broadcast set at the Winter Olympics.

YouTube's first-ever Creator Studio at a Winter Games, built for the most-watched Winter Olympics in twelve years. A broadcast space designed to hold sport, culture, and creator storytelling in the same room, on location, on the biggest stage there is.

What we made

A Broadcast Studio built for creators, not just broadcasters. Kylie Kelce, Laila Edwards, Mikaela Shiffrin, and Madison Chock and Evan Bates all hosted from it. Creative development and on-location content production, start to finish.

How AI showed up in the process

We used image generation to test spatial layouts and lock lighting treatments before a single wall went up. Fewer guesses once we were actually on location. The camera operators, the producers, the art direction: all people, doing what only people can do once the studio was built. The tool's job was getting us there faster, with fewer wrong turns.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
