Online video accounts for 50% of all mobile traffic. (Source)

One of the most staggering statistics for Marketers in 2015.

Half, probably more in fact by now, of all content viewed on a mobile devices is video.

And according to Cisco by 2017, video will account for 69% of all consumer internet traffic. Scarier.

The evolution of smartphone cameras means content can be created at reasonably high quality and shared instantly. GoPro® action cameras are also widely used as a relatively low cost option for shooting shareable content.

AIB used a smartphone in this 30 second TV ad placement promoting their mobile banking app:

These are just a few examples but they show what can be achieved. Sharing photos captured on mobile devices has been the norm for some time – now its time for video.
