A Slow Start (With Big Dreams)
ShortVids was a small company back then. We didn’t use to focus on Long-Form Content because at that time, short-form content wasn’t at its peak. It was June 2021 when Jakib Sports came knocking. They’re a Sports media company covering Philadelphia sports teams, like the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers, and they need a ton of short-form content, specifically for the Eagles.
At that time, Short-Form Video content was still pretty new for us, and let’s just say, our team was not exactly ready for the challenge. But here’s the thing, we love challenges, we’re not ones to back down. So we took a deep breath, rolled up our sleeves, and got to work. When Jakib first came on board, we could only manage about two shorts a day. Yep, you read that right, just two.
Think about it, just 2 shorts. That’s not a lot when you’re working in the rapid environment of sports, where the news cycle moves faster than ever before. Our goal was simple: “Scale it up”. As the season was ending, we needed to hit around 10 shorts per day. No big deal, right?
What Challenges Did We Face Long Along the Way?
We hit some bumps along the way, okay, let’s be real, we hit a lot of bumps. Have you ever tried to cover an event in real-time, with the clock ticking and the pressure building like a football game in the final seconds? Welcome to our world.

Here are just a few of the hurdles we had to clear:
Building the Team
Let’s be honest, at first, we didn’t have enough support in place. Our team had to grow fast to meet the demand. ShortVids started with only 3 people on the deck… not enough, we know. So, we found the best editors, project coordinators, and the work. The dream team was born. Learn more about How ShortVids is Better for Your Content Needs.
Deadlines, Deadlines, Deadlines
Sports news doesn’t wait for anyone. One minute, the big play happens, and the next minute, it’s old news. We needed to produce content fast and not just fast, but really fast. Initially, we had a six-hour turnaround, which wasn’t cutting it. By the peak of the project, we were getting that down to a quick 15 minutes after the event. And yes, we’re proud of that.
Time Zones, Oh My!
American football is played across various time zones, so we had to figure out how to work across the board. A 15-minute turnaround meant we needed editors available round the clock, so we built a global team setup. It wasn’t pretty at first, but eventually, we made it work.
Software, Tools, and More Tools
Let’s just say, without the Right Tools, this wouldn’t have happened. We got our hands on software like Replay and integrated tools that helped speed up the process. With the team and tech in place, things started to fall into place (and it was just as rewarding as we’d hoped).
What Results Did Jakib Sports Achieve With ShortVids?
Finally, when the big day arrived, we didn’t just meet the target of producing around shorts in a single day, we exceeded it. By the end of the day, 10+ completed and reviewed shorts were ready to go. Here’s how we made it happen:
