The company's producing the "first-ever scripted film, shot in real time, designed for mobile viewing" called Sickhouse. And by that title alone, we're sure you can surmise that it's a horror.

It's the former and latter than come together in this frigidly cool video.

  • Four alternatives to YouTube for video marketing

    By on 6 July, 2010

    When it comes to video marketing, YouTube is usually the first video-sharing site that people think of when considering where to submit their video content. This isn’t surprising as YouTube is the undisputed leader in terms of audience reach, market share, and the volume of video content that is uploaded to it everyday. Ironically though, the site’s phenomenal success means that it is becoming increasingly hard to make your content stand out due to the large volumes of other content on every conceivable subject matter. Unless you hit the viral jackpot, which is tricky and unpredictable, you therefore may not...
