TVNZ calls for short form video series

TVNZ, New Zealand’s leading FTA player, is shopping for short form video series for its VoD platform.

Andrew Shaw, TVNZ’s General Manager of Acquisitions, Production and Commissioning, says TVNZ is broadening its interest in international content to include short form content.

“We’re on the hunt for the best new exciting short form ideas in all genres,” he says.

TVNZ OnDemand will launch its OD Shorts strand later this year. It will offer a fun and fresh slate of local and international programming – each serving typically around five minutes duration.

OD Shorts will focus on series, eschewing one off videos in favour of strings of content which bring people back and encourage binge viewing.
