Introducing: Vine: Six Seconds That Changed The World
Launched in 2013 after an early buyout by Twitter, Vine quickly grew into one of the fastest growing platforms on the internet. The app created an entirely new category of online content: short, user-generated videos. It became the home of online creativity, birthed beloved memes and viral trends, and introduced a whole new generation of celebrity: the influencer. So, how did an app that was ten steps ahead die only three years after launch?Credits:Benedict Townsend - Host & CreatorMary Goodhart - Producer & CreatorKevyah Cardoso - Narrative & Creative ProducerPatrick Lee - Sound Design & ScoreChris Janes - MixLucy Chisholm Batten - LegalSophie Snelling - Executive ProducerAl Riddel - Head of Factual PodcastsVicky Etchells - Director of PodcastsArchive acknowledgments:CBS Sunday Morning/'From 2005: Four young internet entrepreneurs'/CBS NewsJawed Karim/‘Me at the zoo’/YouTubeChannel 4 News Theme/‘Best Endeavours’/Alan HawkshawChannel 4 News/’A year of Vine: the six second videos rivalling Twitter and Instagram’The Fox News Channel Theme/‘The Five’FOX 5/’CEO Chris Dessi Discusses Vine on Fox 5’/Brayden Shanks/The Fox News ChannelPacificRimVideoPress/’Vine Famous Jake Paul Interview about Getting Girls, High School, Fave Shoes & More!’Pop Trigger/’Breaking: Twitter Officially Shutting Down Vine’FOX 4 Now/’Twitter Kills Vine App’/The Fox News ChannelSky News/’TikTok to be banned in the US from Sunday, Supreme Court rules’BBC News/’Donald Trump’s inauguration set to take place’NBC News/’TikTok is back up again in the U.S. following a shutdown overnight’Mark Zuckerberg/’Mark Zuckerberg announces the end of Meta's fact-checking program in the United States’/FacebookArtwork acknowledgments:Cathleen DovolisBrandon Moore B BowenNicholas FraserJames MoroskyAva Ryan
