A.J. Gersh and Brad Cirella / COM 400 BuzzFeed Future Media Skills
BuzzFeed Live:
• We believe that in the near future, media will be driven by live content, so BuzzFeed should
get into the game as soon as possible.
• Facebook Live, Instagram Live, Live Online News Sources and more are already
dominating and will continue to.
• BuzzFeed Content Creators would be able to livestream their daily lives and more, removing
the stigma that video has to be well produced and edited to be seen, shared and generate
revenue
• Creators can go live for any quirky or fun video they deem has “virality”
• Live, interactive BuzzFeed News Stories
• Live, interactive Quizzes and games like HQ
• “Learn as you go quizzes” that play out step by step based on what the public
agrees/votes on
