In the real world, YouTube is owned by Google.
=== Beginnings===
The Twelfth Doctor title sequence was inspired by a creation of a fan of Doctor Who, Billy Hanshaw. Steven Moffat was impressed with the conceptual opening sequence that was popular on YouTube; liking how original it was, he got in contact with Hanshaw for creating an official title sequence.
The Thirteenth Doctor title sequence was created by Ben Pickles, or "John Smith VFX", who gained notoriety through his popular VFX Doctor Who fan videos on YouTube. He was discovered due to these videos. Before series 11, Pickles provided essential VFX for World Enough and Time and Twice Upon a Time.
