- Digiday reports Snapchat has launched Snap Originals in a bid to grow its audience after seeing a loss of 3 million daily users in the second quarter of 2018
- Snap Originals features scripted shows, and documentary style series that are published periodically to give users a reason to check the platform on a recurring basis
- Snapchat will place 3 minutes worth of unskippable 6-second ads within the shows. They expect to play two to three of these packages each episode, as reported by Digiday from Sean Mills, head of original content at Snapchat’s parent company
