Episode description

In this episode, Jillian and Sophia discuss the new streaming service Quibi. Quibi was thought to be the merge between Hollywood and Silicon Valley through its "quick bite" content only accessible through phones with over $2 billion in funding and major A-Listers attached like Jennifer Lopez, Sophie Turner, Steven Spielberg and more.  Our hosts discuss what worked and didn't work and how it was poorly executed. It can be described as "The Fyre Festival of Streaming Services." Jillian and Sophia discuss other possibilities that could have made the platform better such as sticking to unscripted shows, attaching digital creators who know-how to make the most out of short-form content better than actors, six minutes isn't enough to create a story and its similarity to Snapchat technology. Was this project rushed? Created and Produced by Jillian Chilingerian and Sophia Badalian. Artwork by Alex DaSilva. Music Produced by Kiyoto. Follow us @offscreenwithjillandsoph
