2016 – Year In Review and 2017 – Year Ahead for Social Media Video Content<\/strong><\/p>\n

As 2016 goes and 2017 comes some big ideas to review about the new year\u00a0on social media and video content and some thought about industry experts about what 2017 reserves for it by\u00a0Wochit.\u00a0Some social media platforms and video trends and ideas proposed by\u00a0Dror Ginzberg, Co-Founder & CEO of Wochit.
\n2016 – Year In Review<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Social media platforms prioritising video content<\/strong>
\n\u201c2016 was predicted to be the year of online video, and it was 100% correct. The main social media platforms, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat, really put video content at the heart of all their strategies this past year. From Facebook Live\u2019s release in April, to Twitter\u2019s extension of its video character limit, to Instagram\u2019s launch of disappearing videos, each platform has sought to innovate and perfect its video offering, especially as online video now accounts for over two-thirds of all internet traffic, and is expected to jump to an unprecedented 82% by 2020.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. Welcome to the era of \u2018Live\u2019 video<\/strong>
\n\u201cWhile live video streaming platforms, such as Periscope, first came to prominence last year, the concept achieved full lift off in 2016 with the launch of Facebook Live in April. The power of such live content was really illustrated by \u2018Chewbacca Mask Lady\u2019 Candace Payne, who\u2019s unforgettable Facebook Live video has generated a stunning 162 million views and over 3 million shares. With pay TV subscriptions in the UK declining significantly these viewers are moving to social media and Facebook Live is now a natural home for these viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n

3. The fragmentation of sports broadcasting rights<\/strong>
\n\u201c2016 marked the year that sports broadcasting began to flourish in the digital age. Steering clear of traditional television broadcasters, sporting rights have increasingly been sold to online streaming services which are able to reach much larger audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rights associated with this content will undoubtedly increase in the next few years past their current valuation of \u00a316 billion worldwide, due to the rise in online-only services like PPTV and Twitter, who have signed a deal with the NFL and English Premier League this year. The NFL is the biggest sport in America, and by signing a deal with Twitter to host ten of the games live over the regular season, it highlights the League\u2019s eagerness to test new broadcast ground, and could even see more games shift to an online-streaming home.”<\/p>\n

\u201cSports broadcasting across all platforms around the globe is becoming increasingly fragmented, much like how Netflix disrupted traditional TV viewing, online-only sports offerings are now becoming the norm, especially as video traffic will be 82% of all Internet traffic by 2020.\u201d<\/p>\n

2017 – Year Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Social media platforms will keep trying to perfect video
\n\u201cLast year saw Facebook Live\u2019s release in April, Twitter\u2019s extension of its video character limit, and Instagram\u2019s launch of disappearing videos. Next year, such video-focused innovations will continue amongst the most popular social media platforms. With online video now accounting for over two-thirds of all internet traffic, this figure will only keep increasing into 2017 and all the main players will be seeking ways to interest and excite their users, while keeping a close eye on what their competitors are up to.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. Forget that TV subscription
\n\u201cPay TV subscriptions are actually declining significantly with on-demand services, such as Netflix, which added a whopping 3.2 million international subscribers in the summer, picking these viewers up. A key trend we\u2019ll see next year is that while traditional TV subscriptions fall, a raft of new on-demand providers will looking for a piece of this ever increasing pie. Huge players such as the British Film Institute and BBC plan to launch their own bespoke services in 2017, meaning this area is likely to see fierce competition throughout the year as new providers jockeying for position.\u201d<\/p>\n

3. Sports go fully online in 2017
\n\u201c2016 was the year that sports broadcasting took off, moving from the traditional television broadcast to an online setting. Deals were struck and the way we watched our favorite sports changed irrevocably with content moving to Twitter, PPTV and Youtube. Next year we only expect this to shift even further, with additional sports moving from television broadcast to online streaming services – this is especially the case for those sports which are housed in one country and watched all over the globe. The English Premier League has already seen this disruption, but we can expect 2017 to bring further fragmentation of sports broadcasting.\u201d<\/p>\n
