Video Wall Plus

The Video Wall Plus runs cross-screen and enables advertisers to launch highly custom video display campaigns. Video Wall Plus offers more features and customization than the standard Video Wall, including options like animations, character sections, galleries and logo morphs on desktop, in addition to a supporting static unit below the fold. Mobile web and app feature a tall video display banner above the fold, and a large custom unit below the fold.

Desktop

Desktop - Intro Video

• On first impression, a large intro video plays without sound across the site background and resolves to the expanded state of the Video Wall Plus.
• During the intro video, users can click the primary CTA, or click to skip the intro, which resolves to the expanded state of the Video Wall.

Custom IMDb Logo Morph - Desktop

With Video Wall Plus, advertisers can customize the IMDb trademark logo to fit a movie or TV show’s IP style. Upon initial load and on hover, the logo will morph to the custom logo for 5-10 sec, and then morph back to the standard logo. Custom logo morphs for Video Walls require approval on a case-by-case basis. We encourage all interested advertising parties to review our logo and trademark usage guidelines and to seek our permission before using any of our logos or trademarks in any capacity.
