Freddie Wong Quotes

Video is growing very quickly on Facebook. A lot of people compare that to YouTube. I think that kind of makes sense. YouTube isn't the only video service, but I think it's the biggest, and it probably makes more sense to compare Facebook video to YouTube rather than Netflix because that's a completely different kind of content.

I am a professional creator of online video and I have had that job since the moment of its existence. I'm also something of a professional advocate for, and follower of, online video.

The problem with educating in online video is that online video is funded by advertising almost exclusively.

I think when YouTube first came out, everyone was thinking people were just going to watch five-minute shows from now on and that people didn't have the patience anymore to watch longer programmes. But instead, everyone is binge watching and consuming ten-hour programmes and box sets of shows, so it is really interesting.

YouTube, as longer form, the content you make there has to keep you entertained for three minutes - or five minutes.

The YouTube industry is quite alien to a lot of people.

Now we know that if we make a ten min video for YouTube, people will watch it.

There are people who have huge YouTube followings - whose every post gets hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of hits. But I don't think that's having the same impact as someone who has a regular presence on television, or both.

'Wag' is not some kind of documentary; it's just looking at the tools that are available. Now you've got more tools - you've got social media - and just post stories through all types of back channels that can get some traction.

It's unfortunate when I see brands spending a lot of time and money on creating online content that hardly anyone watches.

I think if you make good, interesting content with compelling story lines and good characters, people will tune into the web for as long as you want them to.

The online video ecosystems thrives largely on ads.

I think the advent of things like YouTube have made it possible for creators to tell stories cheaply and efficiently and to have a built-in audience.

'Frontline' started doing digital content in 1995. We started streaming our films in 2000.

Gone are the days when people used to sit together and watch a show together. Today, it is all about become individual viewing. You miss a show, you can watch it on an app, while traveling, while sitting in your own rooms.

I ask myself all the time, 'How do I always go viral?'

In a few years, we might not still be into Instagram, but hopefully I'll be into the next thing and have fun do it.

I've always wanted to connect with my viewers but there's only so much you can do through commenting and tweets.

Of course, I always try to integrate my life on social media but I would be the last person to post a random picture just to get likes and just so that I can create some social media feed. For me, a post should have some meaning.
