Budweiser’s premiere commercial spot for Super Bowl Xlviii has already racked up 34 million views (and counting, quickly) since it went live on YouTube on January 29, 2014, four full days before the ad was set to air on television broadcasts nationwide. The advertisement and its viewership numbers reveal a few important things. One, Budweiser is very good at advertising. Two, everyone loves puppies and Clydesdales, and everyone especially loves puppies and Clydesdales together. And three, you’ve most likely already seen a lot of the big-budget Super Bowl ads hours or even days before the game was set to take place.

Along with its primary function as a studio for independent creators, the Space will serve as a full-featured classroom through which aspiring YouTube stars can learn the tricks of the trade. The classroom is opening up with its inaugural class, with 25 creators picked to make up the student body.
