DEFIANT is a new, weekly, video-based newscast from the people who bring you Definition

S o what does a publisher do in a time of global upheaval? You innovate. For us, that’s taking what we know – desktop publishing – and mixing it with off-the-virtual-shelf telecoms software with video as its base. Put all that together, place it in an ideas oven at 200˚C (gas mark 6) and you get DEFIANT – a weekly video newscast with a pinch of traditional magazine formatting. Over the next few weeks, we’re talking to – and connecting with – a captive audience of industry professionals. The idea is to become one of the heartbeats of the industry, with interviews and other video content about the week’s worth of news. A lot of the content will appear in the pages of Definition , as well as on our website and in digital issues. While the industry kicks its heels, we will be presenting many names you may have heard of, but will now be able to see and hear from in their state of lockdown. Sign up for our newsletter at GetDefinition.co.uk or just visit the website at definitionmagazine.com to get your new weekly issue of DEFIANT. GET YOUR NEWWEEKLY
