Buzz60.
Buzz60 is sometimes quirky, sometimes topical, always smart digital content in 45 seconds - “video snacks.” Owned and operated by ZMG | Ruckus Factory, the brand encompasses all kinds of trending video stories from viral clips to lifestyle tips. Buzz60 is on Facebook, YouTube, and partner news platforms such as USA Today, MSN, and AOL. ZMG produces, distributes, and monetizes more than 1,500 videos per month under owned & operated brands that net 100 million+ monthly views across connected TV, mobile, and desktop devices.
As a content producer at ZMG, I’m sometimes responsible for editing up to 6 of these quick-turn stories each day. Here are just a few I’ve worked on:
