The Billion Dollar Question: How Will Online Ads Make Money
Despite high viewership for prime-time shows online and the early success of program aggregation services like Hulu and Veoh, advertising revenue for video on the Web remains a tiny fraction of television advertising revenue. There’s plenty of confusion about what types of online ads work best: pre-rolls, in-stream, in-page, banners, branded ads or sponsorships? What are the most successful revenue models? Is there an organizing framework that allows stakeholders to think about where the future might be? What will be required to win?

Breakout Sessions

2:30 – 3:20 | Brands as Content Creators
Branded entertainment has gone well beyond simple product placement. Brands are playing a growing role -- an in some cases creating -- the content of TV series, interstitials and web programming. TNT’s latest micro-series, Blank Slate, is sponsored by Honda and incorporates an Acura into the series plot. Nike has created a web series about five world-class female athletes and their inspirational stories. How successful -- and lucrative -- are these efforts?

3:30 – 4:20 | Mobile Marketing: Ads on the Go
Texting and TV have become close cousins as a growing number of shows cultivate carriers for voting on reality shows or carrying news about plot twists. A growing number of television networks also run video on mobile phone, and many affiliate stations now supply local news and stats to carriers. These efforts provide both a promotional boost to TV programming as well as an opportunity to woo advertisers to the emerging mobile platform.
