Content Operations In The Multi-Screen Age: Part 2 - Harnessing Multi-Screen Delivery

In an increasingly complex multi-screen landscape, broadcasters are navigating a difficult transformation. As streaming proliferates across multiple delivery channels, traditional broadcasters are absorbing the fundamentals of master control within the framework of ‘Content Operations’ and encompassing strategic planning across the entire content supply chain.

Part one of our ‘Content Operations In The Multi-Screen Age’ series examined how broadcasters are producing multi-format content to feed all these different outlets simultaneously.

In part two we look at how broadcasters are adopting streaming era tools to monetize that content across all delivery channels. It looks at how AI is optimizing content workflows to help broadcasters compete on personalization; how harnessing return path data is matching streaming platforms' audience insights and ad-targeting capabilities; and examines the importance of pursuing consolidation to achieve scale while preserving their unique value as trusted local brands.

The stakes are high, but the broadcast industry is responding to the challenges of multi-screen fragmentation with a mix of technical innovation and strategic partnerships, including collaborative ventures with the streaming giants themselves.

This exclusive Themed Content Collection is essential reading for all broadcasters navigating their way through the increasingly complex multi-screen delivery landscape and examines a range of challenges as production and delivery workflows increasingly migrate to cloud compute-based systems.

Content Operations In The Multi-Screen Age is a collection of six articles presented in two parts.
