Original Video Content

Let our talented content team produce custom content with your brand in mind, promoted on our official social media channels. For an On The Street Episode Feature, the SXSW Content team will capture, edit, and post a lo-fi, "man on the street" style video spotlighting your brand, providing immediate exposure during the most active part of the festivals and conferences. This is a great add-on for any brand planning a creative activation anywhere in the SXSW footprint. The Evergreen Original Series is a more robust opportunity that features ten one-minute episodes and takes advantage of the A-list talent that attends SXSW each year. Our Content team will curate a series idea around your brand’s goals, film the episodes in the SXSW Studio during the event, and roll them out weekly after the event has passed. This gives your brand a turnkey way to authentically connect with our audience long after the event is over.
