These lessons from Facebook's Video Accelerator programme show you how to gain more viewers
With news consumers increasingly receiving news from social media and online sources, it is more important than ever to be able to attract their attention and gain reach. One way of doing this is creating video content for online platforms.
Alex Fenby, Facebook News Partnerships Lead, South East Asia, shares five tips to create better online videos from Facebook's Video Accelerator programme.
