We’ve produced stories on virtually every continent including some of the world's least understood subcultures. Through shining a light on these amazing characters we look to help our audience better understand the world.
60 Second Docs has worked to expose a new generation of audiences to the documentary genre on social media by creating short-form, high-impact, original documentaries on the world’s most interesting characters. We make films, not “social video” and that commitment to story has led to unprecedented growth.
In all, we’ve produced 700+ documentaries — delivering billions of views to an engaged community of Millennials and Gen Z. We lead with story, but also leverage a proprietary process for A/B testing, optimizing for virtually every aspect of video creative and distribution.
We have a world class research and production team tasked with discovering and identifying engaging story opportunities, while leaning on historical insights, and community analytics to optimize per platform.
