Social media and second screening

 Alka Marwaha (2009) watching TV is increasingly being integrated with social networking, via screens such as the smart TV, smart phones, tablets and laptops. This allows people to watch TV, film and online videos and chat about them together regardless of their geographic location.

TV is more like secondary media now.


Thoughts online when watching tv show. Stranger things, Strictly Dancing, MAFS.....

 

Miso was a social TV app, tell you when programmes are on and you can join a community and talk to others while watching the show

 

I have used secondary screening:

Look up actors- Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Titans, PLL

Looking up storyline that isn't explained- Halloween, The Shining like maybe Reddit


One TV program and how it is promoted, how viewers are chosen to interact a week before the program

The Circle

 

 



 The fans can watch the show and vote who gets the extra cash prize on the app at the end of the season and who gets certain perks on the show. They might vote who they want to see next in the game show. They also use the #thecircle. On their social medias they tell the audience when the show is on so everyone can watch and participate together. The Circle TV app has exclusive The Circle content

Voting

End of the season the watchers choose who gets a cash prize

#thecircle
