Your host, Alex Shevelenko, talks with the Co-Founder and CEO of Scenery, Mike Folgner. Mike's journey began at Stanford Business School, where he started his first company, Jump Cut, founded in 2005, focused on video sharing and allowed users to share videos without the need for downloading. This was a revolutionary concept at a time when video was primarily shot on film. With the idea of bringing digital sharing to video. Inspired by the success of photo-sharing platforms like Shutterfly.
Mike saw the rise of social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, which were feeding the virality of YouTube videos. Recognizing the structural limitations of incumbents like Yahoo, he saw an opportunity to create a platform that allowed rights holders to quickly post highlights to social media.
Mike believes that the future of content will involve deeply integrating video with other mediums, allowing for different learning styles and preferences. Mike acknowledges the potential of AI in content creation but believes that human decision-making and editorial processes should remain the primary drivers. He emphasizes the importance of collaboration and teamwork in the content creation process.
