Mark Zuckerberg has made it no secret that he wants Facebook to start producing original content, much like YouTube or even Netflix. One of the company’s most recent job postings shows how serious the social network is in accomplishing this goal since it is now looking for an honest to goodness, Hollywood film producer. In other news, Facebook has added 3,000 employees to start screening for violent content on the platform.
Facebook made the new job posting on LinkedIn several days ago, CNBC reports, which is ironic considering how the social media site just launched a competing feature on its corporate Pages. In any case, the job is straightforward enough since the listing describes the producer to "develop, script, produce and edit sharable motion picture content."
Another job listing that the company posted was for a software engineer with film production being a specialty. This is made clear in the description, which states that the job is to "integrate footage from creative teams into our content rendering engine to produce new personalized videos."
Now, it’s worth noting that Facebook is already hosting several unique video content from its users every single day, but it would seem that the company is looking beyond that. For the most part, it would seem that the goal is to create content that would attract as much attention from casual internet users the way YouTube or Netflix does it. Whether or not the company is willing to go big-budget in pursuit of this goal is the question.
Aside from hiring a movie producer and movie software engineer, Facebook is also adding thousands of new employees who will screen content on the platform that might be deemed violent, The Washington Post reports. This includes hateful rhetoric, gore, sexually explicit imagery, or just good old-fashioned offensive posts.
Impressive as that may sound, Facebook is acknowledging that this is not nearly enough to stamp out violent content. The social network could hire a million screeners and some offensive videos, images, or comments are still going to get through.
