They’re upping their game!
Snapchat continues to grow and is definitely the chosen social media platform of younger people.
However, they are continuing to create new additions to their brand which will keep them relevant.
Last month, they announced that the company would be unveiling the futuristic ‘Spectacles’ which are glasses that capture moments like a camera. You simply put the glasses on, tap a small button near the hinge and it records up to ten seconds of what is in front of you, each tap records another clip.
But it seems they’ve found another way to attract more people to the app.
Snapchat could soon be more like Netflix according to reports.
The social media site may begin doing short documentaries and shows on their stories.
Several job listing have been added to their site for development managers to create “original shows”. The jobs involve pitching show ideas, reviewing pilots and working with producers, Business Insider reports.
It was also reported that they could be looking at buying original content from suppliers.
According to Digiday, Snap Inc is looking for shows in the six to eight minute range.
“everything from competition/reality shows like ‘Survivor’ to prank series like ‘Punk’d’ and even animated and sketch comedy shows.”
