Facebook Originals?

Facebook Videos are going to become more than hosts for “OMG I can’t believe he said this” Or  videos with audio that is  NSFW (hate those….).

Facebook are preparing to launch into the world of original programming, according to Business Insider they are planning 24 original shows in June via the company’s new ‘Video’ Tab.

They aren’t playing around either, napping College Humour Co-Founder Ricky Van Veed to lead their efforts and hiring a former MTV exec in Mina Lefevre to take over creating original content which is both scripted/non-scripted. Business Insider report that Facebook are apparently planning to take on both premium content and low budget in the vein of House of Cards and High End YouTube videos.
