Hello everyone and welcome back to the SkipperFilms blog, where we share valuable video tips and insights. In today’s digital age, a one-size-fits-all approach to video marketing simply doesn’t cut it. To maximize engagement and reach, it’s important to tailor your marketing video for each channel. Viewers use social media platforms for different purposes and expect to see varied types of videos depending on the platform. While it’s important to have a main brand video, utilizing various platforms to entertain and educate can help attract viewers to your website.
Here’s our suggestion using SkipperFilms branding videos as an example:
For Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn, it’s effective to share your full main brand videos. To maintain viewer interest, keep these videos under 2.5 minutes. Both landscape and horizontal formats are acceptable for mobile users. These platforms should show your full brand video that is engaging and shareable, with a strong hook in the first few seconds to capture attention. Focus the story on being personal and relatable, emphasizing community and interaction to foster connections with your audience.
Example: SkipperFilms Brand Video
For Instagram and Twitter (15-30 seconds) using a vertical, square, or landscape format. Ensure the content is visually appealing and concise, with clear calls to action. Focus the story on being visually driven and trendy, emphasizing quick engagement.
Example: SkipperFilms 2022 Winter Promo
For TikTok, there are no strict rules. Aim to make your videos as short and engaging as possible. TikTok viewers prefer content that is relatable and humorous.
Example: Sandusky Bay Pancake House
By customizing both the format and the story of your video content to fit the unique requirements of each platform, you can enhance viewer engagement and drive better results. Need help creating tailored video content?
