How is product placement different from a commercial?Product Placement is when a brand is seamlessly integrated into the plot and story, of a video production.  The major types of product placement are either verbal, visual, signage, or usage.

     Product placements in music videos range from 3-5 minutes whereas product placement in movies can range in 12 minutes-1.5 hours or more in length.

A commercial is specifically geared  specifically toward interrupted television with a  5-30 sec ad placed in between TV shows.  The prices of each of these can vary which depend upon the reach, demographics of target markets, viewership, time of day, and more variables. While over 70 million Americans have ad-blockers, the consumer shift in media behavior has turned towards Ad-Free such as Netflix, Hulu and Amazon.  This is where product placement lives and breathes.

Product placements are integrated naturally into the setting.  If an actress is taking a drink, why wouldn’t it be your famous tea?  If someone is eating in a movie, it is natural to see a brands logo and packaging while they divulge.  Product placements in movies and music videos are valuable because people naturally will re-watch a good story or listen to a great new song, share, and like it.
