The computer game Football Manager releases its new edition every autumn. In the lead up to its launch, rumours are rife among its legions of fans about the content of the new game and the appetite for hard information is voracious. Watchable came up with the idea of a spoof news report which summed up the rumours, confirming some of them in a ‘live’ segment featuring Sports Interactive’s supremo Miles Jacobson. The film was greeted with great enthusiasm among the fans, quickly achieving over a quarter of a million views. Some fans even produced their own commentary videos on YouTube.
About Watchable

Affordable Strategic Video


That’s why, according to WARC, 58% of marketers plan to increase the proportion of their budgets spent on video this year. And a third will do so by at least 50%.


Over 1 billion people a day now look at video on Facebook, 6 billion hours of video is watched on YouTube every month, and Snapchat now gets over 10 billion daily video views. The most engaging content on Instagram and Twitter is video.


And while clickthrough rates for banner ads plummet, video delivers ROI. For example, 41% of US viewers reported having a more favorable view of a brand after watching a video ad, while 40% report that they are more likely to buy a product or service (source: Unruly).


More immersive than a still image, more persuasive than text and more stimulating than the spoken word, video has a unique power to connect on an emotional level with great speed and scale through the social web.


According to Cisco, 80 per cent of all internet traffic will be video by 2019.


Why Video?

And we explore every possible production route before settling on the most cost efficient way of delivering maximum value.


So, well before the cameras roll, we make sure that our creative is in complete alignment with a brand’s strategy.


The dramatic growth of branded video content continues at a breathtaking rate. But unless it is strategically sound and cost effective, it cannot deliver maximum ROI.


Watchable makes affordable, strategic video for brands and agencies.
