'Netflixing' Movies For Mobile

The rise of Second Screen

WE'RE ON THE COVER

In January I took a cofounder & COO role in Second Screen, a mobile startup in LA's Silicon Beach that aims to become the Netflix of bite-size series. Europe's magazine for the media & entertainment industry interviewed us for their May issue when they took a look at the adoption of second screen technology and other rapidly growing areas of mobile content.

This week they made the Second Screen app their cover star. Thanks to TVB editor Jenny Priestley for the interview of Second Screen's founder & CEO Estella Gabriel.

“What if it was possible to watch bite size episodes of a film on your phone? And while you’re watching, you could be interacting with fellow viewers or checking out the cast’s social media pages. That is the premise behind Second Screen.”

OUR FIRST FILMMAKER IS THE MODEL OF A MODERN CONTENT CREATOR

Fernando Lebrija has good films under his belt, as well as an eye for the future of how we watch. His Netflix Original #RealityHigh was the most watched teen film on the platform in 2017. He’s putting an award-winning film on Second Screen.

If you know any filmmakers who are similarly accomplished and interested in emerging content lanes, please share.Don't know Second Screen yet?

We make feature films an experience the mobile generation loves — by repackaging, rebranding and redistributing them. We’re taking really good unseen movies and making them into 10-minute episode series.
