Snapchat has announced that it is releasing new Snapchat original shows onto the app this year.

But what are Snap Originals?

Snap originals are new shows produced by storytellers with the addition of interactive experiences throughout. Genres include horror, comedy, reality docu-series and much more…

According to Snapchat:

Made-for-mobile shows started on Snapchat. We’ve created over 128 original series. In the second half of last year, over 85% of the Gen Z population watched a Snap Original.

So what do the snapchat shows cover?

• Shining a light on social issues and racial injustice

• Sharing honest conversations on mental health

• Informing its users on the impacts of climate change

Snapchat has released a list of a few of the snapchat orginal shows coming to the app.
