𝗢𝗽 𝗥𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗸𝗶𝗷𝗸 𝗷𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗻 𝘃𝗮𝗻 1 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘂𝘁: '𝗪𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗲𝗽'

Denk aan een verfilmde bouquetreeks opgeknipt in afleveringen van een minuut. De Chinese streamingsapp Reelshort wint langzaam ook in Nederland aan terrein. Met titels als: 'The Double Life of My Billionaire Husband' of 'Falling for My Divorce Lawyer'. Gaat dit onze manier...

"ReelShort briefly surpassed TikTok to become the most popular entertainment app in Apple’s American App Store. [Such apps] offer viewers many episodes of a [micro] series free of charge and then ask them to pay often as little as one yuan to watch further instalments. Viewers, most of whom are blue-collar workers, often end up forking over the equivalent of a cinema ticket to complete the series."

A Quibi-like app called ReelShort hit record downloads and revenue this month | TechCrunch

> Was #Quibi a failure or just before its time? This month, a short-video app and Quibi-like entertainment service called #ReelShort found its way to the top

What’s more impressive about this is that ReelShort’s video content itself is arguably worse than Quibi’s — and Quibi’s was not always great. The acting and writing in ReelShort are so bad that you almost have to wonder if it’s intentional at times. The stories themselves are like snippets from low-quality soaps — or as if those mobile storytelling games came to life. But, regardless, the app has found a bit of an audience, its revenue indicates.
