The Guardian has today launched ‘Watch Me Date’, a new weekly video series which will bring the Guardian’s hugely popular ‘Blind Date’ series to life.
The innovative new series follows a different couple each week as they go on a date, each wearing a pair of Google Glass. Filming begins the minute they meet and the resulting footage is presented along with interviews with each blind dater once the date is over. The videos will be hosted on the lifestyle section oftheguardian.com and will also have their own dedicated YouTube channel. A selection of the daters who appear in the videos will also feature in the Guardian’s ‘Blind Date’ column.
The new series is the latest development in the Guardian’s evolving approach to its video output as it seeks to cater to the ever-changing needs of its growing global audience. Other recent developments include a weekly Comment is Free video series, a new range of short documentaries - produced by the best independent filmmakers - following the appointment of a new head of documentaries, Charlie Phillips, last September and an innovative new sponsored animated agony aunt series What’s Troubling You? with Philippa Perry, which forms part of the Happy for Life hub...
