1. KEY TAKE-OUTS
8. • Best performing videos are teasers of
the most exciting scenes of each
episode of a series.
• Brands are more active than ever,
releasing daily videos to incentivise
users to watch the latest released
episodes.
• Fox published 28 “Hell’s Kitchen” videos
of less than 1 minute each, teasing each
one of the episodes to keep users on
top of the newest events of the show.
To create awareness around a new
film/series, the trend is to use a text box on
the foot of the ad sharing the release date
during the entire ad in a non-intrusive way.
The teaser “It’s the Flamingo, Isn’t It? -
Marvel’s Agent Carter Season 2, Ep. 1” is
a good example of how to share subtle
details of the series. The ad shows the title
of the series and the premier date in grey
letters on the bottom of the ad.
The teaser “Hell’s Kitchen: Opening
Sequence from "18 Chefs Compete” also
presents the data in the first seconds of the
video.
• Upcoming film/TV series trailers have
extraordinary performance over half a
year before the film/TV series goes live
(“Suicide Squad” to be released and
“The Get Down Sizzle”, both to premier
in August 2016)
• Sequel trailers perform best by views
and interaction rates when published
one month before the release date
(“Hell’s Kitchen” season 15 premieres
on January 15th or “Hannibal Buress” to
be released on the 5th of February).
Sequels, revival and current issues drive engagements
Teasing each episode Interactive buttons
• Best performing videos share the
secrets that make a good film or TV
series.
• Rehearsals and “In the studio with” work
very well in TV series videos such as
“The Grease Live” by Fox.
• Other example is “What you’re
supposed to do when you’re a comic”
promoting American comedian Tom
Segura’s show.
• Trending videos feature characters from
films/TV shows creating awareness for
global issues.
• The ad “Deadpool - Gentlemen, Touch
Yourself Tonight” for instance aims at
creating awareness for the risk of men
having testicular cancer.
Social issues
• The most awaited films and best
performers by views are successful
sequels (“The Conjuring 2”,“Neighbors
2” and “Marvel's Daredevil”, Season 2).
• American sit-com “Fuller House” is a re-
launch of Full house and “Zoolander 2”
comes back to theatres after the first
film was released 15 years ago.
• “Sesame street” is also going to be on
TV after more than 45 years since their
first appearance in the 10th of
November, 1969.
