Ad formats – Follow standards and innovate

Videoplaza Format Family™

Whether you want to follow industry standards or innovate, Videoplaza offers you maximum flexibility for working with ad formats. We are strong advocates of standards and have invested heavily in VAST and VPAID, understanding they are key ingredients in the evolution of our ecosystem.

We believe there is also clear value in being able to offer premium and interactive formats. VP Premium Formats can help you:

  • Differentiate from your competition
  • Generate higher yield on your inventory

VP Standard Formats

Our VP Standard Formats are pre-, mid-, postrolls and overlays in different variations. These can be static or contain interactive elements. They can be booked as sponsor bumpers and with combined display elements like companion banners outside the video player. These formats are the obvious choice for long form content and are available on all devices.

VP Premium Formats

Offering true interactivity, engagement and impact, VP Premium Formats empower your sales team to bring something extra to the table. Used in the right way, these formats will generate higher yield and differentiate you from your competition.

The VP Takeover is highly impactful – a traditional linear ad, which takes the standard preroll or midroll and raises the impact by taking over the full screen when the ad is showing. Carefully capped, this format drives engagement and gives the advertiser a premium position.

The VP Ad Selector delivers great user experience – giving a user the option to select which advert they want to watch. Users select from between 2-6 ads from different campaigns. This format enables increased brand recall and generates real user choice and engagement.

Working with Format Partners

In addition to offering our own formats, we work with best in breed format partners, including Innovid, InSkin and Brainient. Our native VPAID support keeps the doors open should you want to work with a 3rd party.

Industry Standards

The Videoplaza platform is compliant with the leading video advertising industry standards – VAST and VPAID, ensuring we can deliver interoperability between different ad serving technologies and video players.

VP Custom Formats

Innovating around new formats is challenging – this requires significant technical work, QA, and education. The Videoplaza platform with its flexible Ad Player architecture can dynamically deliver new formats without impacting your development team or your high priority internal projects. We’d love to talk to you about format innovation and how you can get even more creative with your inventory.
