Global Video Insights • October 2012
Hello and welcome to this month’s Global Video Insights Report.
This month’s report highlights the connection between branding and mobile
video in a number of ways.
First off, we conducted a global mobile survey on the subject of autos. We
received more than 60,000 responses from over 125 countries in six days and
uncovered some trends car makers would love to know. We determined the
most-preferred global brands, which luxury brands consumers are aspiring to,
when they intend to purchase a car and the features most important to make
that decision.
Secondly, in tracking the most-watched mobile video clips, not only did we find
that movies, sports, humor and religious content are front and center, but big
brands Pantene and Range Rover also captured the attention of a fully-engaged
mobile audience. Both brands had ads that hit the top ten most-viewed clips in
various countries.
I hope you enjoy this month’s report!
Cheers,
Judith Coley
