One of the easiest ways to update your video creative is by adding an end card.

This static frame can be added to the end of an existing video to highlight a call to action, add timely messaging, or include disclaimer text. An end card is a great way to pad out an existing video asset that is a little shorter than our standard inventory lengths (15, 30, and 60 seconds), or to update messaging on a video with existing graphic overlays that can’t be edited.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for CTV and OLV.

  • Optimize end card content for
    mobile to ensure readability at all sizes.

  • Not available for Disney and Hulu.

  • Ideal for video assets of irregular duration.

End Card

An in-frame ad is an ideal choice for adding context to an existing video. Timely messaging, logos, CTAs, disclaimers, and more can appear onscreen throughout the duration of your ad, without obscuring any of the existing composition. This format is also a great option for fitting a video with a non-standard aspect ratio into a layout that can be easily trafficked across our catalogue of placements. Try it for converting vertical social media assets into a suitable size for CTV and OLV.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for CTV and OLV

  • Be aware that pre-existing text overlays
    may be harder to read, especially in
    mobile OLV placements. In-frame ads
    work best for videos without
    existing overlays.

  • Great for creating a collage effect with
    multiple assets or converting vertical
    video to a horizontal format.

     

     

In-Frame

Adding a logo placement is an easy way to customize unbranded or stock video assets for your awareness campaigns. This strategy is perfect for ads where the video speaks for itself, highlighting your product or service with bold and simple visuals. Instead of using overlays that may be illegible or distracting, try adding a logo placement on mobile OLV or in-game video, and allow the brand identity to take centre stage.


What you should know:

  • Recommended for in-game, CTV,
    and OLV  placements.

  • A transparent PNG or vector format
    logo is strongly recommended for
    maximum flexibility.

Logo Placement

When you don’t have video assets available, a motion graphics overlay can transform stock clips into ads that seamlessly reflect your brand. Our team can incorporate your existing vector graphics or draw inspiration from your collateral to create new animated elements. Adding motion graphics to stock video or your branded content helps reinforce your messaging and create ads fine-tuned for any campaign goal.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for all channels.

  • Perfect for adding your brand
    voice to stock assets.

Motion Graphic Overlay

Add a flexible, actionable CTA to your video with a QR code overlay. Drive viewers to your blog or overview pages for awareness campaigns, and direct scans to product pages to meet your conversion goals. Add a UTM to your code’s exit URL to capture data on successful interactions. A QR code can be combined with many of our other capabilities, but be aware that it is not ideal for mobile placements, as users will need to use their mobile device to scan the code.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for CTV or desktop
    and console in-game. Will require
    creative approval from the
    StackAdapt Inventory team.

  • Not available for Disney and Hulu.

  • For best results, the QR overlay
    should appear early and last for
    the entire duration of the ad.

QR Code

Elaborate on unbranded or stock video assets with a text overlay to highlight your key offerings. By calling out selected information you can increase the memorability of your message and make your video ad more accessible for viewers who have their sound muted. A text overlay is also a great choice for including subtitles on CTV ads where they would not otherwise be supported.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for OLV and CTV.

  • Must not contain landing page
    URLs for Disney or Hulu.

  • Take a mobile-first approach to
    selecting text content to ensure
    readability, and limit the number
    of words used.

Text Overlay

When you have content that needs to appear throughout the entire length of a video ad, a ticker gets the job done. Feature subtitles, logos, a call to action, discount codes, phone numbers, disclaimer text, or key points with this versatile format. You can also use this space to A/B test copy variations or cover outdated video footers without starting from scratch. Colours and fonts will always reflect your style guide to seamlessly integrate with your existing marketing.

 

What you should know:

  • Recommended for CTV and OLV. Copy
    will be optimized for mobile.

  • Must not contain landing
    page URLs for Disney or Hulu.
