Vertical Video Emerges as New Entertainment Format for Brands
At the Jupiter Festival in Miami, industry leaders discussed the rise of vertical video as a serious entertainment format, moving beyond short ads to branded serialized dramas. The trend originated in China and is spreading in the US, with platforms, producers, and brands getting involved. Experts argue that vertical video is a new media language, distinct from traditional TV, with short, hook-driven episodes designed for mobile viewing. Brands are encouraged to think like entertainment companies, creating content that prioritizes storytelling over direct promotion. Examples include Bilt's 'Roomies' series and Fanatics' access-driven content. However, the Chinese model shows that success also depends on heavy marketing, data, and distribution, not just content quality. The panel predicted that in 10 years, premium content will be consumed vertically on platforms like TikTok, while traditional TV remains relevant for other use cases.
