Tokyo, Japan – September 14th, 2011 – Miew Inc., a subsidiary of Samurai Incubate Inc., launched its new Social Video Service Application for iPhone, called “5Seconds”, aimed to provide new communication platform for iPhone users utilizing a 5-second video complete with audio and personalized end credit message similar to last scene of a movie.
Social Video Service “5Seconds” is a new type of free communication service that adds end credit, effects and messages on the 5-second movie taken on an iPhone. The length of movie is limited to five seconds; however, the concept of 5Seconds is to establish communication between users by short videos. The system allows users to easily “Take, Edit, Add Effects and Watch” movies on their iPhone.
“With 5Seconds, users can make cool videos that is like the last scene of the movie, share those movies on Facebook, Twitter, and 5Seconds Portal, make communication with emotions by adding end credit message, enjoy 5Seconds movies without hassles of registration or any other sign up, and manage movies easily on Album tab, sending 5Seconds contents and events on the application”, Shinnosuke Tone, CEO of Miew Inc. said.
5Seconds is a similar idea to that of numerous Silicon Valley related companies but instead of photo sharing with added expressions; it uses 5-second video plus the stylish effects with the ability to share on Twitter and Facebook. The time limit of 5 seconds is based on the assumption that most people are not interested in watching personal video for more than 10 seconds, similar to the concept of 140 characters for Twitter.
Users can share their 5-second videos to broadcast events such as trips, parties, sport activities, or simple birthday calls to facebook, personal video logs, various scenes where you can take 5 seconds video, and text messages by end credit function.
5seconds is currently available in English and is only available on iPhones; however, by year end, it will be able to support Android devices and aims to get 300 million users. 5seconds developers are now also thinking incorporating pre-written messages, quotes, and poems to preloaded videos that will match user’s emotion.
