Filipino-led Yield Guild Games (YGG) continues to develop its educational program Web3 Metaversity by adding a new course on content creation and streaming which is a growing market in the Philippines.
Taught by the seasoned content creator and game streamer, Een Mercado, the “Being a Content Creator in Web3” course will be included in the Web3 Metaversity which will be moved to a new platform in the coming months.
YGG noted the government has been pushing for measures to support programs that can improve the country’s digital infrastructure.
Mercado, who is lead Content Lead, said the government’s thrust presents more opportunities for individuals and brands alike in the digital space, prompting them to look for more ways to communicate with their audiences
“Content creation has become more relevant because people want to consume more media that helps them learn new things, engage with like-minded people, and grow together as members of the Web3 space,” Mercado said.
As the Web3 space widens, it is crucial that newcomers have access to credible and reliable sources of information that they can use to leverage income-generating opportunities, she said.
“The stigma around content creation not being a proper profession is now out of the window,” she added.
Her topics include creating a personal brand, necessary streaming equipment, and recommended software for new creators among others. She will also tackle ways to properly determine earning opportunities and the right content to use for certain topics.
To address questions from Web3 Metaversity students, Mercado will be joining YGG Scholarship and Community Managers and guest speakers such as YGG Pilipinas Country Head Luis Buenaventura in community huddles that also encourage open forums to discuss the latest industry updates.
With the newest course on Web3 Metaversity, the digital space will be easier to navigate and communicate to different target audiences, especially as the Philippine economy starts to expand online.
