As we move further into the digital age, video content continues to dominate the online space. With more people than ever before turning to streaming services and social media platforms for entertainment, businesses and creators must stay up-to-date with the latest market trends to stay relevant.
Lets take a look at the current market trends reported in April 2023:
Short-form Vertical Videos have become a staple on platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels, and this trend shows no signs of slowing down. These bite-sized videos are easy to consume and are perfect for capturing viewers' attention quickly. Brands and creators who are able to create engaging short-form content are likely to see increased engagement and reach.
One of the reasons why short-form vertical videos have become so popular is that they are perfect for mobile viewing. As more people only access the internet through their smartphones, it's become increasingly important for businesses and creators to create content that is optimized for mobile viewing. Short-form vertical videos are perfect for this, as they take up the full screen and are easy to watch on a phone.
Interactive Video Content allow viewers to engage with the content in a way that traditional videos cannot. For example, viewers may be asked to make choices that affect the outcome of the video, or they may be able to click on different parts of the video to learn more about a particular topic.
Interactive videos are particularly popular with younger audiences, who are looking for content that is more engaging and interactive. Brands and creators who are able to create interactive videos that provide value to viewers are likely to see increased engagement and reach. Include these in your email marketing efforts.
Live Streaming has viewers interacting with the content in real-time, asking questions and providing feedback. Live streaming is also a great way to showcase events and behind-the-scenes content, giving viewers a unique and exclusive experience. Use this as an opportunity to hit record on a camera and use for editing later.
One of the reasons why live streaming has become so popular is that it creates a sense of authenticity and transparency. Viewers are able to see the person behind the brand or content, which can help to build trust and credibility.
Personalized Video Content are tailored to the individual viewer, using data such as their location, interests, and browsing history to create a unique viewing experience.
Personalized video content can help to create a deeper connection with viewers, as it shows that the brand or creator understands their needs and interests. This can lead to increased engagement and loyalty. Think sending your client a "Customer Appreciation video with personalized content from their home buying experience. They can cherish that forever and we guarantee they use it for referrals!
Its important to lean into what your business already does every day and take record of it on camera using trends to easily create engaging, relevant, and effective video content to resonates with your target audience.
