UNRAVEL STREAMERS: What producers need to know
The webinar was held live, January 25th, 2021, ZOOM
Streaming platforms have been the fastest growing area within the audio visual sector in recent years. With the New Year ahead and cinemas still closed, VOD platforms continue to drive the market, consolidate their position and extend content libraries. Get the lowdown on Netflix, Amazon and HBO and find out what they want, how to connect best with the leading streaming platforms and how to move in between the independent VoD’s.
Ampere Analysis contributes an analytical research overview of the major SVoD services operating in the CE and Polish markets, examining streamers’ strategic developments and possible content preferences for 2021. In addition SampoMedia will capture the progress, potential and aspiration of an emerging independent future EuroVod sector that is no longer reduced as merely a digital aggregator.
This talk helps producers of children’s media in placing their content for the right streamers.
