The wonderful world of UGV and why it offers producers and broadcasters more opportunities to delight audiences than they think
The use of user-generated video (UGV) in TV and film production is certainly not a new phenomenon. It's been seen everywhere - from news channels, documentaries, online shows, branded content, commercials, factual entertainment, and reality TV. But the last two years have been difficult and eventful for broadcasting and production. The global pandemic left significant gaps in schedules, and all traditional expectations for impactful productions such as big budgets, high production value and complex studio set-ups were impacted. Even as we approach the end of 2021, Covid has left a legacy of fragmented teams, remote working, time, and financial pressures for both production teams and broadcasters. The pandemic also created a seismic shift in viewing habits. Pre-Covid, TV viewing was often associated with unwinding and escapism. Whilst the need to escape still prevailed during the endless months of lockdown, viewers also began to seek a sense of connection and unique content in the sea of repeats and reruns. Viewing habits became increasingly non-linear, as audiences explored the rich, deep, and varied content catalogues of on-demand streaming providers and social channels. No wonder then that many broadcasters and production houses turned to UGV to help them keep pace with audience desires.
