Digiday Video: When it comes to making good video, publishers worry about resources and cost


At the recent Digiday Publishing Summit in Key Biscayne, Florida, we asked execs from CNN International, Vox, Horoscope.com and Inquisitr how important video was to them, and the biggest challenges in making a video strategy work. Highlights:

  • The biggest challenge with video is cost, especially when it’s high-quality video.
  • It’s also difficult to figure out video for mobile, and using various formats in strategic ways.
  • Resources are a concern, and making sure that creating long-form video content at scale is really what audiences want is key.
