So Instagram announced today their attempt at YouTubes pie with IGTV. As a filmmaker I've always had a hard time with vertical video - but that's the way Instagram wants to play! What do you guys think?
IG obviously has a huge user based to tap into for an audience. I suspect vlogging style videos will do well there but I wonder what kind of narrative storytelling is going to start popping up. I fought the good fight but today I let it all go and shot vertical video... and I don't feel bad about it.
I'm sure 95% of what I shoot will still be with a wide aspect ratio but I look forward to what comes with the new platform/audience.
Not sure if this link will work properly without the IGTV app. https://www.instagram.com/tv/BkSG9DIhK29/
