Long-form video (interview-style, “talking head,” etc) has gotten a bad rap. It’s time to stop thinking that these types of videos are “too long,” or that they no longer have their place in today’s digital marketing landscape – that couldn’t be further from the truth. Here’s why long-form videos provide value to your marketing:
The Power of Storytelling
First and foremost, longer videos allow for deeper storytelling. In an age where consumers are inundated with surface-level content, long-form video stands out by offering a more comprehensive, emotionally engaging narrative. This storytelling format:
- Builds Trust: Extended content provides a platform to establish credibility and authenticity, fostering a stronger connection with the audience.
- Increases Engagement: Viewers who invest time in longer videos are more likely to be genuinely interested in the subject, leading to higher levels of engagement.
Your organization is too important to not share its story.
Leadership
Long-form video featuring interviews are a fantastic vehicle for demonstrating expertise and thought leadership. These interviews:
- Showcase Personalities: Putting a face to a name humanizes your brand and allows audiences to connect on a personal level.
- Provide Depth: Experts can share their knowledge in a nuanced way that shorter content often cannot accommodate.
Diverse Content Strategy
Lastly, a diverse content strategy that includes a mix of short and long-form content caters to a wider audience. While short-form content captures attention, long-form videos keep it, resulting in:
- A Holistic Approach: Addressing the preferences of different segments within your audience.
- Greater Flexibility: Providing various entry points for your audience. Long form video can be re-cut into shorter clips giving you a library of valuable footage to post over time.
