Overview of Video Content Types
By default, Brightcove Campaign™ is configured so that videos will have an additional video property, Video Content Type. With this property enabled, Brightcove can compile your analytics with those of similar videos and provide more robust analytics that includes Brightcove's Video Benchmark Score (VBS) and customized advice. This allows you to, for example, compare how your "how to" video is doing compared to other users "how to" videos. This information appears on the Dashboard page.
Available Video Content Types
A Video Content Type can be assigned to a video when uploading, on the main Videos page or by using the video properties page. The table below outlines the Video Content Types that are available inside Brightcove Campaign.
| Video Content Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Brand/Company Promotion | Non-product specific videos that describe a company’s mission or values. These videos often have high production value. |
| Product Overview | Videos that focus on a specific product and how it benefits a consumer/user. These videos assume that viewers have not used the product previously. These videos don’t delve into how to configure or operate a product but show the product benefits in broad terms. |

| Testimonial | Testimonial videos include non-employees discussing the benefits of engaging with a product, service or company. |
| Event Promotion | Videos that promote a conference, meetup, or online gathering. Videos that recap what happened at an event. |
