Online platforms YouTube and Vimeo and the explosion in smartphone and tablet viewing has created a new opportunity for broadcasters and filmmakers alike. BBC Three's move online responds to this opportunity, and brings the BBC into the same space as other channels such as HuffPost, Buzzfeed and Vice.

This panel session with BBC Three's Max Gogarty provides an update on the themes, strategy and creative direction that will enable a more personalised and social form of digital broadcasting for the first time. Who will be the filmmakers? How will BBC Three operate in the digital space? What is the key content, and what can the audience do with it? This is the chance to engage with a key change in the UK's media landscape.
