MediaCorp experiments with content, over 4 channels
Singapore’s MediaCorp will showcase 14 experimental pilot formats on four channels in its new TesTube initiative.
From 8 to 12 October, four of MediaCorp’s channels will carry the program and ask viewers to interact with the content via their mobile devices. With smart phones and tablets becoming an integral part of content consumption, TesTube aims to test Singaporeans’ willingness to engage in second-screen experiences on their handheld devices, and be engaged with a multi-platform viewing experience.
“Testube is one of our major initiatives to drive innovation in content creation. We aim to reach out to more audiences, get their reactions and feedback to these show concepts through multi-media platforms and eventually develop at least some of them into successful shows.” said Deputy CEO Chang Long Jong.
The 14 pilot formats were selected from MediaCorp, public ideas submitted through MediaCorp’s Content Innovation Fund as well as from artist Tay Ping Hui.
