Yandex Zen’s Video Blogging Course – стопснято

Spark.ru estimated (in 2019) that video content could be a key driver in user acquisition and conversion by as much as 80% by 2021, and Yandex Zen’s actions seem to be reinforcing this market prediction.

To encourage video content on Zen, Yandex has launched the стопснято (Stop Taken) program.

The video blogging course covers:

  • how to prepare for shooting
  • how to write a script
  • how to equip a studio
  • how to shoot
  • how to mount a video

Those partaking in the program will be rewarded with channel and content impressions.

Recently, Yandex also announced the Zen Aurora program to encourage new channels and new Zen bloggers.
