Addroid, TVGla and Universal Pictures Create the First In-Banner Video Ads for Mobile Browsers

Addroid showcases its mobile video banner technology with Universal Pictures’ Fast and Furious 6

Their system is easy to grasp, allowing us to quickly create and modify our ads.” – Julie Gargan, Executive Creative Director at TVGla

Los Angeles, CA – Addroid – the universally accepted in-banner video-ad platform – has teamed with Universal Pictures and award-winning Los Angeles based creative agency TVGla, to release the first-of-its-kind in-video mobile-ad unit for the theatrical film release of Fast & Furious 6, now in theaters.

The ad, which was created by the team at TVGla using Addroid’s revolutionary ad-creation platform and proprietary video codec, .jpv, is able to create and deliver full-motion video ads which are compatible with every device and placement. The collaboration marks the first non-click-to-play video banner that reproduces full motion video in an iOS browser. Producing a vivid, interactive ad unit unlike any other previously seen or available in mobile advertising, the ad exceeded expectations and produced excellent results.

Addroid’s innovative .jpv format and proprietary creative development platform fully presents the visual dynamics of a theatrical trailer directly inside the mobile browser for the first time. Addroid’s single ad tag works in every device and across all display and mobile placements, eliminating the need to create multiple units for each placement, device and publisher.
“This was our second time partnering with Addroid, and both campaigns were successful,” said Julie Gargan, Executive Creative Director at TVGla. “Their system is easy to grasp, allowing us to quickly create and modify our ads.”
