In 2025, video continues to be king—but not all videos are created equal.
With the ever-shrinking attention spans and content overload on every platform, short-form video has proven itself to be the most powerful and versatile tool for marketing in today’s digital landscape.
So, what’s the difference between short-form and long-form?
And more importantly: Which one should you focus on?
Let’s break it down.
Short vs Long: What’s the Difference?
Short-form video: under 60 seconds (ideal: 15–30 seconds)
Long-form video: 3–10+ minutes (think webinars, interviews, documentaries)
While long videos are still useful for in-depth content, short videos win when it comes to:
Grabbing attention fast
Sharing across multiple platforms
Boosting brand visibility
Increasing engagement
🔥 Platforms that Prioritise Short Video in 2025
Here’s how today’s major platforms are leaning into short content:
TikTok – Built entirely around short videos; still the trend leader in 2025
Instagram – Reels remain a top-performing format for discovery and engagement
YouTube – YouTube Shorts now rivals TikTok in reach and user time spent
RedNote (Xiaohongshu) – Popular with Chinese users in Australia; short video is key to discoverability
LinkedIn – Short, professional video content is outperforming traditional text posts for reach and interaction
In short (pun intended): if you’re not doing short video, you’re invisible.
💡 So What Does This Mean for Your Business?
Whether you’re running a restaurant, selling furniture, managing a preschool, or launching real estate projects, your audience is watching short videos—on every platform.
And they expect:
Professional-looking visuals
Engaging, fast-paced editing
Content that speaks directly to them
But here’s the catch: producing good video takes time, planning, and consistency.
