From TikTok videos to Instagram Reels and Youtube Shorts, short-form video content, typically lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes, has witnessed an exponential rise in popularity in recent years. According to a report by Cisco, video content is projected to account for 82% of global internet traffic by 2022, with short-form videos playing a significant role in this surge.
Let's talk about why it works.
