Fox, Twitter Study Says Tweets Encourage Viewing - and Boost Advertisers - TheWrap - 0 views

  • A new study funded by a TV network and Twitter found that TV and Twitter go great together — not just by getting viewers to watch shows, but by getting them to embrace products promoted by the shows.
  • First, TV-related tweets can inspire people to immediately watch a show they've never seen before, or resume watching shows they'd stopped watching.
  • The survey – ”Discovering the Value of Earned Audience — How Twitter Expressions Activate Consumers” — included 12,577 people recruited on Twitter over two weeks. Participants were surveyed within 24 hours of watching and/or tweeting during primetime.

  • 76 percent of people who have seen a TV-related tweet have searched for a show, 78 percent have taken some sort of Twitter action, like clicking on a hashtag, and 77 percent have watched a show as a result.
  • Forty-two percent have made plans to watch the show later, 38 percent have watched episodes online and 33 percent have changed the channel to watch the show. Also, viewers who live-tweet are more likely to act.
  • Twitter-Engaged TV Viewers Tweet 24/7 While 72 percent of TV tweeters tweet when they watch live broadcasts, 60 percent tweet about TV shows when they are not watching them, and 58 percent tweet about TV shows while watching them after they originally air. Actors/Talent Are Most Preferred Source Forty percent of tweeters prefer to see tweets from a show's stars, 26 percent like to see them from friends and family, and 18 percent prefer them from official show handles. TV Tweets Drive More on Twitter, Other Social Platforms Seventy-eight percent take immediate action after seeing a TV Tweet, 41 percent click on the show's hashtag to find out more information; 39 percent retweet show tweets, and 35 percent follow stars on Twitter.

How People Watch TV Online And Off | TechCrunch - 0 views

  • or all the video people watch on the web, it is still a tiny fraction of how much they watch on TV in terms of time spent. In a report put out yesterday on the State of the Media summarizing 2011 data, Nielsen estimates Americans spend an average of 32 hours and 47 minutes a week watching traditional TV. They only spend an average of 3 hours and 58 minutes a week on the Internet, and only 27 minutes a week watching video online. All those billions of videos watched online still only represent 1.4 percent of the time spent watching traditional TV.
  • Even on the web, there is a huge difference between the video sites which attract the biggest audiences and those which are the most engaging. The top 5 video sites by unique visitors are YouTube, Vevo, Yahoo, Facebook, and MSN. But the top 5 video sites by time spent are Netflix, YouTube, Tudou, Hulu, and Megavideo.

Second-screen apps struggle with brand relevance as binge-watching grows - Mobile Marke... - 0 views

  • While brand marketers are enthusiastic about trying to engage second-screen viewers, much of their focus right now is on Facebook and Twitter rather than standalone second-screen apps.
  • As a result, these apps are looking to reposition themselves to attract more use and brands
  • The idea is to provide users with an experience that they can engage with throughout the day related to their favorite TV shows, whether they want to catch up on the latest gossip about a show, chat about the latest episode or engage with the app while watching a show.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • “From Millward Brown’s 2014 AdReaction report, we see that, on average, multiscreen users in the US ages 16 to 45 spend 68 minutes using a smartphone while watching TV, and 24 minutes using a tablet while watching TV,” she said. “These numbers suggest the ability of a novel app, with a good user experience, to command a lot of time and attention from multiscreen audiences.
  • “Furthermore, the interactivity that could be offered by second screen apps is also something that resonates with audiences. The key is that second screen apps have to make the second screen experience easy and related and plug in to the content on the first screen rather than just the advertising.”
  • Overall, second screen experiences appear to be moving away from check-ins in a reflection of how viewers are increasingly watching multiple episodes of a show in one sitting. In fact, the least favorite activities for second-screen viewers are using an app to identify music on a TV show being watched (15 percent) and checking in to a TV program via an app (12 percent).
  • In comparison, 32 percent browse the Web for information about what they are watching on TV, 25 percent research products seen on TV, 21 percent chat with friends about a show, 20 percent post status updates, 18 percent visit a show's Web site.

    "Channel surfing has just about jumped the shark," said Jeff Malmad, managing director of mobile at Mindshare, New York. "People now binge-watch television on demand and engage with social apps on mobile while they're doing it.

Second coming: the evolution of the companion screen » Digital TV Europe - 0 views

  • The huge growth of both the smartphone and tablet markets in recent years has brought with it a profound shift in viewing habits. According to recent Nielsen stats, 84% of US smartphone and tablet owners now say they use their devices as second screens while watching TV – looking up information about programmes they are watching, researching or buying goods and interacting with friends.
  • Recent months have seen the consolidation, and even closure, of some of the first crop of dedicated second screen services.
  • McDonnell claims that industry, and industry watchers, have been distracted by the buzz around so-called ‘second screening’ – “misinterpreting the audience behaviour and missing the point that it’s just all about making the TV show better.” He claims that part of this “distraction” has rested with the consumer-facing startups, eager to grab attention from broadcasters and monetise this space independently. “They’ve generated a lot of hype and have largely failed to capitalise on it,” says McDonnell.

  • While Zeebox may have initially been focused on live, second-screen participation, Rose says that the service is now more focused on the social experience around the TV shows themselves. A recent major update to the app added MyTV, a personalised content feed based on the shows a user follows, with targeted recommendations, fan-community TV rooms and aggregated articles, news, and information. Zeebox is now even syndicating its production tools, synchronised show enhancements and TV chat rooms to its broadcast partners – including Fox, Discovery, NBC and Viacom.
  • likely part of the appeal for Shazam when it comes to TV is the possibility of tapping into the massive pre-existing broadcast ad market, offering multiscreen and interactive extensions for campaigns.
  • “Having one app that is able to do slightly different things for shows is probably a good place to be for anyone who’s investing in the technology side of it, but also for the viewer, because it’s something that you’re familiar with. There is different stuff to do in each show, so you come back for different shows that you like, and it’s a slightly different experience,” says McHugh.
  • “My belief is that broadcasters should take more ownership and control of that [second screen] space –
  • “It’s always been a quandary for broadcasters – do you partner with a cross-channel, cross-platform app such as Zeebox, do you make something for your own channels, or do you make an app for each show,” says Rose. “When it comes to second screen, I think the pendulum started with broadcasters creating an app for each show. We’ve seen in the US some broadcasters have made more than 200 apps and it’s now widely referred to as the app graveyard – these apps from several seasons back. They’re not maintained, they don’t work often, they’ve got old content, some post was last updated 185 days ago. It’s not good. So that then moved to broadcasters sometimes creating their own channel-based apps. But I think it’s hard to get traffic to a channel-based app. People don’t just watch one channel, they watch multiple channels, and so the pendulum kept swinging towards the more general-purpose app.”

He claims it’s already “very well proven” that sending an audience to an interactive, mobile-enabled site will drive more traffic than forcing users to download a native app.

    The word we're using is 'repatriate' - we feel that TV is generating a lot of online activity and it's going elsewhere. We'd like to bring it back into the TV space if we can.

YouTube superstars: the generation taking on TV - and winning | Tech | The Guardian - 0 views

  • There is growing consensus that traditional media, particularly TV, need to learn lessons from this. "YouTube is beginning to behave like a market leader," noted Elisabeth Murdoch in her 2012 MacTaggart lecture. "Believe at your own risk that their platform is based on homemade videos of cats in washing machines… Brands and talent are using YouTube to create direct-to-consumer relationships. Michelle Phan is the world's most popular make-up expert with over 600 million views. Yes – that's equivalent to a global Olympic audience generated by a 22-year-old putting on Lady Gaga makeup."
  • I'm a professional. If you expect me to jump at the opportunity to do something for free, like you're doing me a solid? No." Perhaps the scariest part of that comment for the old media is that these twenty-somethings know Jamie Oliver best for his supermarket advertising.
  • Cable television offers hundreds of channels, while YouTube gives us potentially millions from a global pool. The second is that technology now provides more versatility for watching content from the internet. For copying the tips from a make-up video, you might choose to use a smartphone in the bathroom; you can watch vlogs in bed on a tablet; for longer, more stylised productions, you've still got the big screen.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • "If TV is a monologue then YouTube is a conversation," says Benjamin Cook. "The communal side of TV has been outdated for 10 years. Something like Doctor Who, The X Factor or the Olympics will suddenly get everyone crowded round the TV again, but in general TV just feels more distant to me. I will sit in bed and watch Charlie McDonnell's latest vlog and you feel far closer – like you're watching a friend."
  • at the end of 2010 when the site introduced TrueView, a system that allowed users to skip almost two-thirds of its adverts easily; the innovation being that Google could now charge much more for the ones people did watch to the end
  • "One thing that's completely different is that a lot of creators involve their audience in the creative process," says Sara Mormino, director of YouTube content operations in Europe. "So they ask the audience questions, they ask them to comment and they are also able to look at the stats of exactly who is watching.
  • Feedback is immediate and unfailingly honest, and they tailor their performances every time they post a video. Such an environment has given rise to rabid fandom.
  • When you speak to the YouTubers, it's hard not to think that old-style broadcasters should be concerned by the lack of interest in and sometimes disdain for their product. What this generation (and their audience) loves about the platform is that they grew up with it; it feels like it belongs to them. They make the videos, unmediated by grown-ups, and put them out into the world where they are judged by their peer group.
  • n January 2012, Elisabeth Murdoch's production company, Shine, bought ChannelFlip, a media agency that represents some popular YouTubers, and is expanding rapidly

Are Young People Watching Less TV? (Updated - Q2 2014 Data) - 1 views

  • American adults watch an average of 4 hours and 36 minutes of live TV per day, as opposed to half-an-hour watching time-shifted TV, 11 minutes using a game console, 1 hour and 7 minutes using internet on a computer and 1 hour and 25 minutes using a smartphone.
  • The difference in declines between the viewing population and the 18-24 population as a whole suggests the growing presence of “cord-nevers” – people who have never subscribed to a pay-TV service and are instead getting all their programming options from OTT services. It also means that TV’s grip on its young viewers remains, but is loosening.
  • In Q2, 12-17-year-olds watched an average of 18 hours and 58 minutes of traditional TV per week, representing a 14-minute-per-day year-over-year decline. That’s an uptick from recent declines.
