Snapchat Introduces Snap Originals With 12 New ShowsFigure 1 Photo Courtesy of Pixabay Snapchat announced its new Snap Originals content lineup with 12 exclusive shows already added to the app, with more to come soon. The shows include Lies Co-Ed’s Endless Summer School, and more. The new content is available under the segment on Discover. Snapchat constantly solidifies its presence in the world of social media with its new features. The latest of the immensely popular social media platform is its new video show roster of Snap Originals that will be providing scripted shows from popular creators such as Bunim / Murray and Carter Harris. The website has already explored other genres, including shows such as Dead Girls Detective Agency Class of Lies and Bringing Up Bhabie. The previous run of 60 shows by Snapchat from prominent broadcasters such as Cbs Nfl and Viacom was largely successful, leading to the social media app venturing into its own original shows. Snap Originals competes for the top spots in the industry with rising pressure from Facebook Watch and Instagram’s Igtv service. Sean Mills revealed Snap’s Vp of Original Content: “Time spent watching shows on Snapchat has tripled this year alone.” Some of the new Snap Originals are fully funded by Snapchats, some are managed by production studios and some are joint efforts. The shows are being made with the mobile audience in mind and will be laden with fast-paced visuals and quick cuts. The offering will have state-of – the-art elements to stand out from offers from the rivals of the market. The shows will be monetized in the app by means of brief advertisements which will last six seconds each. During every episode of the Snap Originals shows, users can expect two or three of those ads.
