Social Media

Television consumption through social media platforms will become one of the dominant methods of consuming content for certain audience sub-groups.

Video on social media is old news, but the popularity of video on social media has predominantly been about user-generated content. High-value, long-form television content has presented platforms and broadcasters with difficult challenges on rights, piracy, content checks and active management. Even if you own your rights, having to navigate the difficulties of making your content available on a platform is extremely challenging.

We know and work with the most popular social media platforms. We understand their algorithms and we spend enormous amounts on R&D time to figure out how best to use these platforms as enablers of the next generation of television distribution.

Features

  • Expertise, experience and advice
  • Already working with all popular social media platforms
  • Insight into the algorithms, user policies and content checks
  • Active management service

Mobile and Smart TV Apps

Television distribution is fragmenting, and different segments of the audience want to view content differently. Television channels need to make their content available on the viewer’s platform of choice.

It is now expected for a broadcaster or television channel to have their content available on their own app as well as the most popular smart television apps.

We design, build and manage these apps on behalf of television channels and broadcasters. We actively manage and curate the content across these apps for optimum results.

  • All popular mobile apps
  • All popular smart TV apps
