Last April, in a bid to create more top-tier original content on YouTube, the company, alongside AwesomenessTV, announced that it will "release several feature length films over the next two years, all driven by YouTube stars…setting what we believe will become a new distribution paradigm for years to come."Dance Campfeatures YouTuber Meg DeAngelis, though its male lead is Jake Paul, a heartthrobby Viner.

Old media luminaries involved with the project include producer John Chu (who directed the Justin Bieber documentaryNever Say Never) and choreographer Fatima Robin (who worked onDreamgirlsandSave the Last Dance.)

Unsurprisingly, YouTube's first feature outing is aimed squarely at its ravenous tween fanbase. There are also more than 24 million dance-related videos on YouTube, making it one of the platform's most popular genres, according to Kelly Merryman, YouTube's vice president of content partnerships.

Awesomeness has already released several feature films starring digital influencers proving the viability of these ventures. Most recently,Smosh: The Movie, starring the popular YouTube comedy duo, rocketed to the top the iTunes comedy charts upon its debut.
