Videotorial is huge right now. If you're wondering what videotorial is, my friend then I will answer that for you. Videotorial = Video + Pictorial. So you see it's basically a piece of photography that is captured via video and it's a moving picture. But it's not exactly a photography or a pictorial, hence Videotorial.
I first stumbled upon this piece about a couple of years ago when I was looking for promo videos for 90210 on Youtube and I found this cool 1-minute-videos of Jessica Stroup and Ryan Eggold where they were being filmed posing or acting like in a photoshoot. The artist responsible was Tyler Shields. Since then there were numerous other videotorials from him feature a lot of up and coming Hollywood actors such as Jayma Mays (Glee), Sean Farris (Never Back Down), Rainn Wilson (The Office), Deborah-Ann Woll (True Blood), Matt Dallas (Kyle XY), Hayden Panettiere (Heroes), Zachary Quinto (Star Trek); Anna Kendrick, Ashley Greene, and Kellan Lutz (Twilight). So I guess videotorial is what the cool kids do these days and apparently, head shot is so 2009.
