New Media is a brand new way to foster creativity. During new media, anything can be accessed much easier and much more conveniently. Since new media can turn something from plain paper to digital, it provides opportunities for others to access that digital from frequently and modify that digital data easily. Anything can be accessed through digital can be modified and change much easier than plain paper. With easy access and modification, it means that anyone can express their idea and creativity on to that digital data. Like in the article "Disney Tolerates a Rap Parody of its Critters, By Why?" by Brooks Barnes. In this article, it stated that there is a YouTube video where someone turned Bambi, Simba, and Winnie the Pooh into rap stars. This is something new, something that had never happened before. It was a brand new creative way of playing as Bambi, Simba, and Winnie the Pooh. Without new media, no one can have a voice over this Disney video. We will never see a rapping Disney video. Anything new is creative. No matter what the outcome will be. With YouTube, many people can have the opportunity to express their creativity for others to see. It is a gateway for others to access the opportunity that they never had before.
