The lesson

The 23rd lesson in the Crash Course series will cover making eye-catching videos for Gen Z, the generation born between 1995 and 2010. Making content that this demographic wants to watch calls for strong messaging and relatability.

In this lesson you will learn about the social video marketing funnel. This video also discusses how content for Gen Z needs to evolve across five categories:

Short form clips to build awareness
Long-form to drive consideration
Livestreams to push conversions
Private communities to cement loyalty
Referrals, bundling and early access to build advocacy
