Episode notes
In this TellyCast episode, we bring you the Digital Docs panel from the TellyCast Digital Content Forum, recorded live at BFI Southbank on 7 November 2024.
In this session, we dive into the world of digital-first documentaries with a fantastic group of panellists who are each making waves in the industry. Moderator Sam Barcroft and the panel explore what it takes to succeed in the digital documentary space—whether it’s finding the right niche, driving growth, or generating revenue on digital platforms.
First up, we have Serena Brown from B1M, whose YouTube-first approach has turned her channel into a go-to destination for all things architecture and construction. Joining her is Yusuf Omar from Seen.TV, a company built on mobile journalism, reaching millions of viewers and focusing on stories that mainstream media often overlooks. We’re also joined by Ben Zand from Zandland, a producer with a knack for storytelling that brings fascinating, under-explored subjects to light across multiple platforms. And finally, we have Gerrit Kemming from Quintus Studios, a digital documentary pioneer, who shares how they leverage their extensive network of creators to produce compelling content for both online and traditional broadcast channels.
Each of our panellists has carved out a unique path in the documentary world, and today, they’ll be sharing their experiences and the lessons they’ve learned along the way. If you’re curious about the future of digital documentaries or you’re looking to break into this field, this panel will give you valuable insights into creating and growing digital-first doc brands.
