Snapchat Story

An ephemeral collection of photos and videos used for time-sensitive film promotions.


Overview

A Snapchat Story is a collection of user-generated photos and videos visible to followers for 24 hours. Brands and filmmakers utilize Stories to share ephemeral content—film teasers, countdowns, interactive polls, and location-based filters.

Features and Engagement

Snapchat offers AR lenses, geofilters, and swipe-up links for external content. Film campaigns deploy branded lenses so users can ‘become’ characters, as well as snap ads embedded between Stories for targeted outreach.

Role in Film Campaigns

Limited-time promotions—exclusive clips, behind-the-scenes Q&As, and premiere event coverage—drive urgency and real-time engagement. Snap Ads with deep links facilitate seamless ticket purchases and trailer views.

Analytics and ROI

Metrics include views, completion rates, and swipe-up actions. Geofilter impressions and lens activations provide additional data on user reach and brand recall.
