Tbo Touch (real name Thabo Molefe) has launched a new video on demand offering, which will challenge the dominance of Netflix and Showmax in South Africa.
THD24 will focus primarily on local empowerment, including South African-focused content and job creation within the space.
How it came about
“A lot of VODs in the country have international movies and series, but where is job creation in all of that? We’re going to brag about our catalogue, but you have products that we saw on Ster-Kinekor and Box Office. So, I’m taking humble steps to say ‘all graduates from film schools, come into THD24. We’re going to create sitcoms, series, vodcasts’,” he explains.
The idea was sparked when Tbo Touch was filming a movie called Blessers. He noticed how 120 people had been hired around the project (caterers, gaffers, hair and make-up, wardrobe etc.).
“It’s all because of what I learned at Touch HD. Radio online is an expensive exercise when there’s free radio out there. But if you add an unique proposition, give high quality, cutting edge video, make it something different, then you have a different offering than what traditional is doing. So THD24 is the evolution of Touch HD,” he adds.
