Social media has created the ability for creators to connect directly with their audience like never before. In the past photographers, filmmakers and other content creators had to have their work published and distributed. But now, they can simply click “upload” and send their content out to the world. 

With this new connection, the world of content creation has grown into its own art form. From shooting mini-vlog documentaries to sharing ‘story times,’ people have started creating high-quality content from the comfort of their homes. Check out how these TikTokers have upped their content game by using Sony Xperia smartphones. And for even more great content, be sure to follow @sonyalpha for Sony creative content in your feed and the latest from the Alpha Universe.
