The document discusses four key insights from analytics that are changing the digital entertainment industry:
1) The rise of mobile platforms and short-form content to match shorter attention spans.
2) Personalization of content using viewer data, like a viral film that stalked viewers using their Facebook data.
3) Video on demand (VOD) is the fastest growing content format, pushing networks to offer more content to lure viewers from DVRs. This will increase costs to subscribers and create jobs.
4) Independent producers may benefit from networks seeking lower-cost content for VOD libraries.

Relationships and experiences are no longer virtual but due to the Social World they have become Real. Circles of Relationship (ask google +) have become tighter and one’s manifestation in the Social World is no longer a login ID but it is the portrayal of oneself. In fact, we stand at a turning point where the virtual world is no longer an extension of the brick and mortar world, but entities from the virtual world will soon be occupying physical space of the real world.

OOH media is known to be ubiquitous, accountable and bold, however the medium continues to evolve further as we see convergence across all media. This means we need to redefine what we mean by OOH and use new language to reflect the capabilities and effect of OOH.
With "Why OOH?" Martin Porter, VP Director, Marketing and Integrated Planning explains how OOH fits into the larger convergent ecosystem and why it is important that the medium be included in the media mix to help reach the constantly connected audience.
Looking back to only a decade ago, how we consume and share online video has drastically changed. From the early days of marketing with video, marketers have evolved from the one-to-many approach and now deliver real-time, personalized videos that contain a message unique and relevant to each recipient. As YouTube celebrates its
10-year anniversary and SundaySky its eighth, we look back at the last decade to see how personalized online video has evolved.
The expanding Out-of-Home infrastructure now encompasses not only bought and owned media, but also devices such as mobile, laptop and tablet that are all used primarily while out of home. This convergence of media is driven by the evolving consumer landscape, which is why our Hot Topics for 2014 primarily focus on the intersection of where technology meets media on a multi-platform level.
As a result of the rapid proliferation of mobile devices and screen options we are seeing a significant increase in location-based marketing, as well as the need for value. The momentum behind environment awareness is adding a layer of context that allows applications to be grounded in utility rather than pure entertainment, providing consumers with a more useful and engaging connection.
Our 2014 Hot Topics include a full range of themes including real-time optimization, borrowed formats, smart devices and OOH’s affect on the speed of delivery.

Advertisers face TiVo challenge By Michelle Quinn San Jose Mer.docxgalerussel59292
Advertisers face TiVo challenge
By Michelle Quinn
San Jose Mercury News
Tech-savvy couch potatoes have given TV commercials the cold shoulder for the past few years, ever since TiVo and its ilk unleashed the power to skip ahead and get back to the show.
Now advertisers are scrambling to figure out new TV advertising models in this age of complete viewer control.
Some advertisers are hoping a new breed of commercials will actually strike a chord with users of digital video recorders by tempting them to use the pause, fast-forward and rewind technology to see the latest creative twists in advertising.
Take, for example, a recent KFC commercial for its new Buffalo KFC Snacker sandwich, which contained a subliminal message and secret code that only could be cracked if played back slowly, frame by frame, with a digital video recorder.
Viewers could then enter the code (buffalo) on KFC's Web site to get a coupon for the sandwich. The company gave away 75,000 coupons.
Never mind that such ad campaigns have to practically become news stories to work.
The ad's secrets were so hidden that viewers wouldn't have known about them if KFC hadn't leaked the story to the media.
Still, it's clear that advertisers are going to make more of these so-called "DVR-ready" ads. What isn't clear is if these efforts will be successful enough to convince advertisers that television is still a good place to hawk Cadillacs and Dial soap. The challenge is how to appeal to the growing number of viewers with DVRs who are enjoying their TV commercial-free.
KFC is not alone in trying new approaches. In the past couple of months, Coca-Cola and General Electric have aired TV ads that contained hidden messages or scrambled entertainment.
And TiVo itself has launched several features to coax TiVo users to watch commercials about products and services in which viewers have expressed an interest.
"We think about consumers and respect the fact that they are in control of television viewing," said Davina Kent, TiVo's vice president of national advertising sales. "We only choose things that are opt-in, meaning that they can choose to view on their own time."
For example, in a deal that blurs the line between commercials and programming, TiVo users watching an episode about the BMW M series on the show "Test Drive" will be able to stop the program at any moment to request and watch an ad about the BMW M series.
In its news release, TiVo said the ability to place ads with products in the show, which appears on the Speed channel this summer, "opens up more opportunities for advertisers to extend their in-program product integration."
Yes, those products that appear like silent supporting actors in sitcoms and TV dramas may soon come with ads a click away.
Subscriptions growing
Founded in 1997, TiVo popularized technology that allowed viewers to download TV programs to a hard drive and decide when they watch a television show. They can also zip past advertisements.
Now, .
For my Capstone at Flagler College, I conducted primary and secondary research to establish a marketing and public relations campaign to deter consumers from pirating Netflix Original content.
BI Report- The Future of Pay TV summaryKeith Johnson
The impact of OTT TV services and the quest for a ‘better TV’ experience.
The arrival of interactive OTT (over-the-top) TV platforms is opening up direct, non-traditional routes to market for brands, rights owners, content publishers and production companies, and with the consumer firmly in the driving seat, the issue of consumer choice of TV services is the competitive motivator now at the heart of business strategy for both incumbent Pay TV operators and the new breed of consumer –facing content aggregators entering the market.
The clash of competing mind-sets is going to be intriguing as broadcast and Internet businesses build new services on the centre ground of hybrid TV delivery of consumer entertainment, anytime, anywhere the viewer wants to access it. The one thing the general viewer does not want is complexity, driven by the overt clashing technologies in poorly designed and difficult to use viewing experiences.
This report lays out the impact of video content convergence across multiple screens and consumer devices on the Pay TV business and includes a comprehensive look at the impact of connected consumer devices and social media on the future Pay TV and brand advertising engagement models.
Marketers are starting to use the second screen (smartphones, tablets, PCs) to complement the first screen (TV). While it’s still early days—with tactics so far ranging from basic to innovative—this report highlights the potential here for brands, with examples to illustrate.

Current
analytics
is
giving
our
industry
insights,
which
are
so
profound,
that
they
are
impacting
and
changing
content
creation,
its
accessibility,
as
well
as
the
way
we
are
monetizing
it.
What
does
this
mean
for
the
future
of
digital
entertainment
and
advertisers
who
market
through
it?
There
are
four
particular
developments
I
would
like
to
share
and
the
direction
they
are
driving
this
industry.
First,
the
development
of
new
platforms,
which
have
allowed
viewers
to
watch
content
no
matter
where
they
are,
has
affected
content
format.
Consequently,
short-‐form
video
and
photo
stories
have
now
taken
their
place
alongside
long-‐form
video.
Increasing
numbers
in
viewership
have
resulted
because
of
the
market
penetration
of
smaller
screen
platforms
that
best
serve
the
shorter
attention
spans.
For
example,
YouTube
‘shorts
under
20
mins’
and
photo
stories
in
Instagram
and
Snap
Chat
are
dominating
the
mobile
world.
YouTube
provides
shorter
entertainment
series
and
funny
home
videos
that
viewers
can
get
their
fix
on
in
a
world
where
free
time
is
harder
and
harder
to
come
by
and
attention
spans
are
getting
shorter.
Instagram,
Vine
and
other
photo
apps
are
allowing
consumers
to
share
personal
photo
stories
as
the
new
text
message.
Second,
personalization
of
content
has
proven
its
impact
and
created
an
opportunity
on
personal
devices
for
the
future.
In
2011,
an
interactive
short
horror
film
was
released
where
Facebook
users
could
approve
the
website
to
access
their
profile
information.
As
a
result,
a
viewer
would
sit
back
and
watch,
horrified,
as
they
saw
themselves
being
stalked
in
the
film
by
a
serial
killer
using
their
Facebook
information.
The
video
links
with
the
Facebook
Connect
App
to
personalize
the
experience
directly
to
the
single
viewer
by
actually
putting
their
information
and
photos
in
the
film.
It’s
no
surprise
that
this
phenomenon
went
viral
with
400,000
views
and
30,000
likes
within
24
hours
of
its
release.
A
week
later,
the
film
had
been
viewed
7
million
times
with
1.1
million
"likes".
[1]
Today,
4
years
later,
it
has
over
15
million
likes.
[2]
Although
the
film’s
purpose
was
to
create
public
awareness
on
the
risk
of
sharing
personal
information
across
the
Internet,
the
film
also
reveals
an
opportunity
for
content
creators
and
advertisers;
an
opportunity
to
leverage
this
2. concept
of
using
personal
viewer
information
to
connect
them
to
a
story
or
ad
that
otherwise
may
not
emotionally
affect
a
viewer.
It
is
proven
that
when
made
personal,
content
will
have
a
greater
impact
on
a
viewer.
Greater
impact
equals
greater
sales.
It
won’t
be
long
before
you
will
be
seeing
ads
personally
addressed
to
you
or
more
stories
with
you
as
a
character.
Third,
VOD
(Video
On
Demand)
is
the
fastest
growing
content
consumption
outlet.
[3]
While
DVR
penetration
has
slowed
[4],
consumption
of
recorded
shows
is
not
disappearing
for
now.
Since
it
is
in
the
network’s
best
interest
to
promote
viewers
to
watch
their
content
on
demand
over
DVR,
so
they
can
obtain
their
Nielsen
ratings,
VOD
will
become
the
dominating
consumption
outlet.
In
order
to
lure
viewers
away
from
their
DVRs
and
for
cable/OTT
box
(Over
The
Top)
companies
to
remain
competitive,
they
will
have
to
continue
offering
even
more
content.
There
are
two
sidecars
to
this.
One,
is
that
all
content
comes
with
a
licensing
cost.
The
more
content
offered,
the
greater
price
cable/OTT
box
service
companies
will
charge
to
subscribers
to
offset
those
costs.
Second,
it
takes
a
whole
production
team
to
create
the
kind
of
content
worthy
of
VOD.
If
“more”
is
the
future,
then
we
are
looking
at
an
industry
boom.
Rising
employment
rates
and
increased
funding
to
buff
up
film
programs
is
not
far
off.
But
not
just
for
studios,
lower
budget
indie
films
are
finding
the
VOD
outlet
a
more
feasible
means
to
reach
their
audience.
With
current
studio
productions
only
able
to
spit
out
a
handful
of
films
and
shows
at
a
time
due
to
sky
high
costs,
distributors
will
be
turning
more
to
independent
producers
for
content,
especially
if
it
costs
them
less
which
will
make
their
subscriber
costs
more
competitive.
If
studio’s
want
in
on
the
game,
they
just
may
partner
up
more
with
these
little
independent
production
companies.
With
this
increase
in
diversification
of
our
content
creation
players,
I
predict
we
will
see
much
greater
creative
output
which
no
doubt
will
send
us
into
a
new
renaissance
for
the
arts.
Fourth,
DAI
(Dynamic
Ad
Insertion),
the
ability
to
replace
outdated
commercials
from
original
broadcast
on
VOD
with
more
timeless
local
commercials
allows
content
distributors
and
networks
to
monetize
otherwise
stale
inventory
and
allows
smaller
local
companies
a
more
affordable
way
to
break
into
advertising
in
the
digital
streaming
world
in
only
their
targeted
market.
Although
still
in
its
infancy,
DAI
is
well
on
its
way
to
taking
over
and
being
available
for
all
ad
inventory.
To
sum
up,
analytics
tells
us
short-‐form
and
photo
stories
are
becoming
more
prevalent,
allowing
content
providers
and
distributors
another
revenue
stream
by
giving
advertisers
this
additional
means
to
reach
consumers.
Personalization
and
3. localization
with
the
DAI
of
ads
and
personalization
of
creative
content
is
the
foreseeable
direction
of
the
future.
It
is
an
opportunity
to
drive
the
economy
with
its
more
personal
impact.
VOD
is
not
only
looking
towards
being
the
main
means
of
content
consumption,
but
is
driving
the
creation
of
even
more
content
and
more
players
into
the
field.
Even
though
the
cost
of
content
subscription
services
will
likely
increase,
with
the
new,
more
affordable
and
localized
ad
inventory
now
available
through
VOD,
it
will
result
in
more
ad
dollars,
which
will
fuel
the
digital
entertainment
industry.
With
more
dollars
and
more
diversification
of
players
in
the
game,
the
next
renaissance
is
right
around
the
corner.
