I caught up with one of Ask A Ninja‘s co-creators Kent Nichols outside The Frolic Room in Hollywood and asked him his predictions for online video in 2009.

Some of Kent’s predictions 2009 are:

Affiliate marketing and call to action will see more experimentation

Video entrepreneurs will build new brands that will get them noticed and help them launch TV shows and films.

When I asked Kent who he thought out of the existing online video creators would have a new break out hit he didn’t really have an answer instead he predicts that we are going to continue to see people that we have never even heard of before break through. He feels that there still is an open playing field for people who want to get into online video and make a name for themselves.

Although Kent is a fan of the team over at Blip.TV he has no predictions on video platforms and who might emerge as a new leader in 2009.
