Video In-Stream Pause Ad Specifications

Video In-Stream Pause Ad Specifications

Definition

The Video In-Stream Pause Ad is a prominent opportunity within an engaging video setting. When a viewer pauses video content, advertiser messaging takes over the video screen and the paused video content shrinks to the bottom left-hand corner. Advertiser messaging remains in the video screen until the viewer clicks to return to continue viewing the video content. The pause ad functions in normal screen viewing mode only. A companion ad compliments the Video In-Stream Pause ad and appears below the video player.
