No / Mobile television environments offer the potential for the repurposing of media content and services, and also the introduction of new forms of commercial advertising which are more accurately targeted towards a user’s profile, as per an advertiser’s requirements. This modality can include non-commercial information provision. The Google model for linking search terms and keywords to advertisements demonstrates that ‘intelligent’, context-aware, targeted advertisements are more responsive to user profiles. Advertiser practices such as product placement need re-examination in this context. Prototype mobile TV interfaces, as alternatives to the well-established TV model of viewing content, are presented, in order to evaluate the relationship between television content and mobile devices and to understand the key factors determining possible directions, for the future of mobile television. Changes need to be made to content display, interaction paradigms and device parameters, as social and cultural expectations are re-negotiated.

Produktplacering och sponsrat material i sociala medier ökar markant till följd av det digitala landskapets spridning. Det blir allt mer vanligt att blanda kommersiellt innehåll i icke-kommersiella sammanhang, vilket medför förvirring och oro hos konsumenter. Ett exempel på detta är videoplattformstjänsten YouTube. Influencer marketing på YouTube växer för var dag av orsaken att man genom tjänsten kan nå ut till en bredare publik – vilket många företag utnyttjar. Uppsatsen syftar till att bidra med en ökad förståelse för vilka eventuella reaktioner som produktplacering i videoklipp framkallar, eller inte framkallar. Studien undersöker mottagarens attityd till sponsrat material och produktplacering och visar likheter och skillnader mellan producenter och konsumenter. Den undersöker även om konsumenternas reaktioner skiljer sig åt beroende på hur videorna förhåller sig till givna rekommendationer och riktlinjer. Undersökningen har skett genom kvalitativ metod och intervjuer tillsammans med både en konsumentmålgrupp och en producentmålgrupp.Resultatet visar att reaktionerna är många och varierande, de negativa reaktionerna är dock dominerande. Producenternas och konsumenternas åsikter skiljer sig till största del åt och producenterna är mer positivt inställda. Faktorer som varumärkeskännedom, tillit och engagemang har ofta stor betydelse för en framgångsrik marknadsföring genom YouTube.Slutsatsen indikerar att reaktioner så som nyfikenhet, intresse, irritation och avundsjuka är vanliga reaktioner på produktplacering. Konsumenterna tycks också mer positiva till integrerad reklam i videoklipp trots att rekommendationerna talar för det motsatta kring hur de bör framställas. / Product placement and sponsored content through social media is increasing significantly as a result of the digital landscape evolving. It is becoming more common to mix commercial content in non-commercial contexts which leads to confusion and concern amongst consumers. An example of this is the video platform service YouTube. Influencer marketing on YouTube is growing by the day because of the wide audience that companies can can reach out to – thanks to the service. This essay aims to contribute to a better understanding of the possible reactions that product placement in videos provokes or does not provoke. The study examines the viewer’s attitude to sponsored material and product placement and what similarities and differences there is between producers and consumers. It also investigates whether consumer’s responses differ depending on how videos relate to recommendations and guidelines. The survey has been conducted through a qualitative method with interviews in focus along with both a consumer- and a producer target group.The result show that the reactions are numerous and various, but the negative reactions are the dominant. The opinions of producers and consumers differ greatly, as producers are more positive towards product placements. Factors such as brand awareness, trust and dedication are often of great importance for successful marketing through YouTube.The conclusion indicates that reactions such as curiosity, interest, irritation and jealousy are common reactions to product placement. Consumers also seem more positive towards integrated advertising in videos despite the recommendations speak for the opposite.

Yes / Toy industry in the US is product driven and full of challenges. This case presents an overview of the California-based Micro Games of America (MGA) Entertainment, which is a consumer entertainment products company, engaged in innovative lines of proprietary and licensed products including toys and games, dolls, consumer electronics, home decor, stationery and sporting goods. It had more than 200 licences. In 2001, MGA launched a fashion doll called ‘Bratz’, and it sold 150 million Bratz dolls all over the world. Bratz line surpassed the legendary brand ‘Barbie’—Mattel, Inc.’s flagship brand—in a short span of time through many innovative marketing strategies and different product placement, roll-outs, tie-ins and other promotional tactics, despite facing many challenges, such as, fast-changing demographics, shorter product life cycle (PLC) and negative perceptions about brand. This case can be used to address two issues: first, structural change drivers and trends that shaped the toy industry in developed economies and, second, how to develop effective marketing strategies for product with shorter PLC in highly product-driven market?

The historical definition of product placement had, at first, the clarification that the advertising message should be carried out subtly, incorporating itself in the content so that consumers did not perceive it; because if this perception happened, the tendency would be to reject the advertisement. This argument remained for some time, however a significant variable emerged in the context of women’s television programs, in which the brand presenter dialogues in a non-subtle way, endorsing the consumer experience, strengthening the narrative with lived stories of sucessful experiences. It is the materialization of the product in people’s lives, through entertainment and information, which is a reference for the viewers present in the audience of the program. The main objective of this research was to analyze the use of brands’ testemonials advertisement as a communication tool in women’s programs of open television presented in a non-subtle way by brand communicators, called merchandetes. Thus, the research focused on the analysis of the product placement – better known in Brazil as merchandising – in the television program Mulheres, from TV Gazeta, in São Paulo, setting up a case study in a women’s program broadcast in the afternoon. In addition, it was interviewed managers advertisers of frequent testemonials announcements, merchandetes of others women’s programs and a commnunication manager in social network. The investigation showed the importance and commercial strength of merchandising not only as part of the content of women’s programs, but also in relation to the others formats of advertising. The study emphasizes the importance of the endorsement carried out, either by the merchandete or the program’s TV host, as a fundamental tool to generate the immediate sales of the announced products in real time. The originality of this study consists in the understanding of the permanence in the context of the testimonial merchandising as an effective advertising format in Brazilian television from its origin, where the placement of products was made exclusively through the so-called “brand’s speakers”, who existed because of the transmissions performed exclusively live. The interviews revealed that all the participants in the commercial and artistic structure of the broadcaster that generates the women’s program seek to monetize the arguments and quality of the messages in order to effectively achieve the goals of their advertisers when the ads are broadcasted. This study also demonstrates technically, through audience data, investments and number of insertions, the intense presence of the testemonials advertisers broadcasting in the daytime, where are the greater participation of the investments and concentration of viewers conformed by the audience surveys predominate. / Este estudo apresenta uma análise dos elementos gerais dos testemunhais sutis ou não sutis representados por indivíduos contratados por anunciantes para a divulgação de suas marcas na mídia de massa, especificamente a televisiva. A definição histórica do product placement teve, no início, o esclarecimento de que a mensagem publicitária devia ser realizada de maneira sutil, incorporando-se ao conteúdo para que os consumidores não a percebessem; pois, caso isso ocorresse, a tendência seria de rejeição do anúncio. Permaneceu por algum tempo esse raciocínio, no entanto, surgiu uma variável significativa no contexto dos programas femininos de televisão, na qual o apresentador de marcas dialoga de forma não sutil, endossando a respeito da experiência de consumo, fortalecendo a narrativa com histórias vividas de experiências de sucesso. É a materialização do produto na vida das pessoas, através do entretenimento e da informação, que é referência para os telespectadores presentes na audiência do programa. O objetivo central desta pesquisa consistiu em analisar a utilização das marcas de anúncios testemunhais como ferramenta de comunicação em programas femininos da televisão aberta, apresentados de forma não sutil por comunicadores das marcas, chamados de merchandetes. Desse modo, a investigação centrou-se na análise do product placement – mais conhecido no Brasil como merchandising – no programa Mulheres, da TV Gazeta, de São Paulo, configurando um estudo de caso em um programa feminino transmitido no horário da tarde. Adicionalmente foram entrevistados gestores de anunciantes frequentes dos anúncios testemunhais, merchandetes de outros programasfemininos e uma gestora de comunicação em redes sociais. A investigação permitiu constatar a importância e a força comercial do merchandising não só como parte do conteúdo dos programas femininos, mas também em relação a outros formatos de veiculação. O estudo ressalta a importância do endosso realizado, seja pela merchandete ou pela âncora do programa, como ferramenta fundamental para gerar as vendas imediatas dos produtos anunciados em tempo real. A originalidade deste estudo consiste no entendimento da permanência do contexto do merchandising testemunhal como formato de anúncio eficiente na televisão brasileira desde a sua origem, onde a colocação de produtos era feita exclusivamente através das chamadas “garotas-propaganda”, que existiram em razão das transmissões serem realizadas exclusivamente ao vivo. As entrevistas revelaram que todos os participantes da estrutura comercial e artística da emissora geradora do programa feminino buscam rentabilizar argumentos e qualidade das mensagens para efetivamente alcançar objetivos de seus anunciantes no momento de transmissão dos anúncios. Este estudo evidencia ainda tecnicamente, através de dados de audiência, de investimentos e quantidade de inserções, a intensa presença dos anunciantes de testemunhais veiculando no horário diurno, onde predominam a maior participação dos investimentos e concentração de telespectadoras constatadas nas pesquisas de audiência.

電視新聞置入性行銷雖是新興現象，但在新聞界蔓延已成為普遍現象，成為影響新聞產製的重要力量。電視新聞置入性行銷，以較為迂迴、精心設計，與新聞內容融合一體，使消費者難以區辨到底是新聞，還是為商品廣告的行銷訊息。國內目前研究，多是探討此種行銷方式，對新聞專業與新聞工作者的影響，尚未見對閱聽人接收與影響面向的研究。是故，本研究欲探究閱聽人對於產品置入性新聞之接收評價，在溝通效果中扮演的角色。 本研究以實驗法進行，採取三因子實驗設計，為2(置入型態：顯性/隱性)*2(論點品質：強論點/弱論點)*2(產品涉入度：高涉入/低涉入)*2=8個產品置入策略組合，為避免受試者觀看不同產品的效果差異，故讓每位受試者觀看分別看高低二種產品涉入度的實驗影片，形成4個實驗組別，共邀集185位受測者參與，回收有效問卷164份，有效回收率為88.65%。　 研究結果發現，「產品置入型態」對置入性新聞溝通效果未有顯著影響。「訊息論點品質」是影響產品置入性新聞的關鍵因素，對產品置入性新聞之溝通效果影響最為顯著；採取強論點訊息，能引發閱聽人較正向的接收評價，不論是訊息接受度、可信度與資訊性皆有較佳的評價，進而影響消費者對品牌的態度，對訊息的記憶程度亦有相對較佳的表現。閱聽人對「置入性行銷的既存態度」影響閱聽人接收不同論點品質的溝通效果：即置入性行銷持以高既存態度者，暴露於強論點品質之產品置入性新聞，比暴露於弱論點品質時產生更多支持性的想法、較高的記憶效果與較佳的訊息態度。 / Although being an emerging phenomenon, the product placement on TV News has spread into an universal phenomenon in the News circles, and become an important force influencing News production. With relatively roundabout and meticulous design, the Product Placement on TV News is well integrated with the News content, making consumers difficult to distinguish it from News and Marketing message of product. Present domestic researches are mainly investigating the impact of such marketing method on journalism and the News workers, but still haven’t focused on the reception and the influence of the audience. Therefore, this study is to investigate the audience’s reception comments on the Product Placemen on TV News and their roles in communication effect. This study adopts the experimentation of three-factor experimental design, which are 2 Placement Types (prominent/subtle) *2 Argument Qualities (strong /weak) *2 Product involvements (High /Low). A total of 185 participants were invited and all of them were randomized to watch the experimental films, and required to fill out the questionnaires after watching. A total of 164 effective questionnaires were returned, with a valid return rate of 88.65%. The results of this study show that the “Type of PPL” has no significant impact on the communication effect of the Product Placement on TV News. The “Message Argument Quality” is the key factor influencing the Product Placement on TV News. Using strong argument messages can trigger the audience’s relatively positive reception comments in message acceptability, News credibility and message informativeness and then impact the consumers’ attitudes towards brands. Also, it has relatively better performance on the recall degree towards messages.The audience’s existing attitudes towards the Placement Marketing impact their communication effects in receiving different argument qualities. The Placement Marketing with high existing attitudes will produce more supportive thoughts, higher recall effect and better message attitude when exposed in Product Placement on TV News of strong argument quality than that exposed in product placement news of weak argument quality.

El presente trabajo analiza la percepción de la generación millennial respecto al product placement utilizado en las películas peruanas. Este estudio opta por escoger el film de “Asu Mare 3”, el cual logró tener una gran aceptación por el público peruano. Si bien es cierto, el product placement es considerada una gran herramienta publicitaria en el mundo cinematográfico, puesto que brinda la gran recordación de marcas. Debido a que las generaciones van cambiando con el pasar de los años, esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la percepción de los jóvenes millennials hacia esta estrategia. Por ello, este trabajo utiliza una metodología cualitativa para comprender la perspectiva del consumidor y descubrir si la estrategia publicitaria sigue brindando beneficios positivos para una marca. Además, el enfoque que usa la presente investigación es el estudio de caso, el cual permite usar diversos recursos como entrevistas, documentos o reportes para la recopilación de información. / This work analyzes the perception of the millennial generation regarding the product placement used in Peruvian films. This studio chooses to choose the film "Asu Mare 3", which managed to have a great acceptance by the Peruvian public. Although it is true, product placement is considered a great advertising tool in the cinematographic world, since it provides great brand recall. Because the generations change over the years, this research aims to analyze the perception of young millennials towards this strategy. Therefore, this work uses a qualitative methodology to understand the consumer's perspective and discover if the advertising strategy continues to provide positive benefits for a brand. Furthermore, the approach used in this research is the case study, which allows the use of various resources such as interviews, documents or reports for the collection of information. / Trabajo de investigación

<p>The aim of this thesis is to study how television spot and product placement compare in terms of gaining the target audience’s attention, having control over the marketing message and creating credibility for a product or a brand. The context of the study is Finnish television from advertisers’ point of view. Three major theories used are: AIDA, Generic Communications Process and Two-Step Communications. Twelve hypotheses are built based on the theories, the main hypothesis being: “Although a marketing message sent through product placement gains the target audience’s attention better and creates higher credibility for a product or a brand than a television spot, advertisers are keener on sending the marketing message through a television spot than through product placement because they have more control over the message in a television spot and because it historically has a more stable legal position.” Five experts on the field were interviewed to test the hypotheses. In general, the hypotheses were supported.</p>

<p>Studies show that product placement is becoming a more and more common method for companies to use when communicating with consumers. The results of this study can’t confirm nor deny that claim, but instead we offered the observation that as a communication method, product placement and TV-commercials are more similar than revealed at first glance.</p><p>Cars of the brand Ford appeared in seven out of the 50 motion pictures that made up the sample material in this study. In several instances the values that were communicated regarding the brand matched, completely or in large parts, the values communicated about the Ford brand in Ford’s own commercials.</p><p>This doesn’t hold true for all companies. The similarities between Ford’s commercials and Ford’s appearances in motion pictures were only found after disregarding several companies whose appearances on screen didn’t amount to more than a flash of their logotype or a passing mention of a brand name. Still, the possibility to use the appearance of brands in motion pictures in a way equal to the communicative effort that’s taking place in a commercial is very much a reality.</p>

<p>Produktplacering har växt i popularitet över åren och används i allt fler typer av medier. Det har gjorts flera studier om konsumenters attityder till produktplacering men endast ett fåtal av dem har gjort en distinktion mellan konsumenters attityder till produktplacering i olika slags medier. Genom att använda fokusgrupper ska denna studie därmed undersöka studenters attityder till produktplacering i de fyra följande medierna; filmer, musikvideor, datorspel samt bloggar. För att ta reda på detta användes ABC-modellen av attityder och studenternas attityder delades upp under de tre olika kategorierna inverkan, beteende och kognition. Resultaten visar att studenter överlag är positiva till produktplacering i filmer och anser att det ofta är en naturlig del av filmer. Produktplacering i musikvideor anses lämplig så länge det inte är för mycket fokus på produkten. Angående datorspel tycker studenter att datorspel ibland är bättre när de använder produktplacering för att det gör dem mer realistiska. Emellertid är vissa produkter mer passande än andra att produktplacera i datorspel när det handlar om sannolikhet att de påverkar konsumenters till köp i verkligheten. Bloggar ses som den mest trovärdiga typen av medium för produktplacering då studenter anser att de är mer trovärdiga och pålitliga än andra typer av medier. Likväl är det svårt att uppskatta huruvida produkter i bloggar är produktplacering eller inte.</p> / <p>Product placement has grown in popularity over the years and is current in more and more types of media. While there have been several studies made about people’s attitudes towards product placement, only a few of them have made a distinction been people’s attitudes towards product placement in different types of media. Thus, by using focus groups this study seeks to study students’ attitudes towards product placement in the following four types of media; movies, music videos, video games and blogs. In order to achieve this purpose the ABC-model of attitudes was used and the students’ attitudes were divided into the three different categories affect, behavior and cognition. Findings suggest that students overall are positive towards product placement in movies and believe that it is often a natural part of movies. Product placement in music videos is deemed adequate as long as there is not too much focus on the product itself. Regarding video games students find that video games are sometimes better when they use product placement because it makes them more realistic. However, some products that are placed in video games are more suited than others in terms of likelihood of affecting people to buy the products in real life. Blogs are seen as the most realistic media for product placement because students feel that they are more trustworthy and reliable than other forms of media. Nevertheless, it is difficult to estimate whether products in blogs are in fact product placement or not.</p>
