Definition
Video content typically under 60 seconds (and often under 15–30 seconds) designed for rapid consumption and high shareability on platforms such as TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels. Short-form video has become the dominant content format for audience growth and discovery, though it generally generates lower direct ad revenue than long-form content.
