First edit

Here is my first edit of my production. note that sound, small scenes and some close up clips have not yet been added. 

Streaming Services

Stream media services (Netflix, Amazon Prime) are the new 'kid on the block,' for distributing media products. Media streaming service is often subscription based service allowing users to watch a wide range of  new and old media products (TV series and films). media streaming services not only stream  product for other programs (i.e. BBC) they also have their own originals media product and some of them can become very popular and get a lot of publicity. this not only allows streaming services to 'steal' audiences from other media institutions, it also allows them to draw in new customers due to their original media products. And this has be proving to be success as something stream services have other 90 million customers.

these are some of the most popular original media products from Amazon Prime and Netflix:
