The Xbox team are demoing:

Product Spotlight – Click to Video

Click to Video allows you to play your advertisement in HD on the biggest screen in the house. It is easy to implement as you can use your existing creative and campaigns are live in 3 working days.

Introducing NUads™

NUads™ transform traditional TV advertising into engaging and actionable experiences using the voice-and gesture-control of Kinect for Xbox 360. NUads™ are:

  • Engaging: Build memorable brand experiences through the magic of Kinect
  • Inviting: NUads™ create a two-way conversation that allows the brand to instantly connect with consumers
  • Simple: No work necessary, simply hand off your existing :30 ad spot and we take care of the rest

Simple interactions with voice, gesture or the controller transform your video ad from a passive to an active experience. NUads™ will appear both on the Xbox LIVE dashboard as a click to video execution as well as within content served by selected app partners.

NUads™ Scenario - The Polling :30

  • The Polling :30 enables direct feedback from the community using a poll
  • Ask any question and allow the community to choose from 2-3 responses
  • The poll will appear as an overlay on your video ad and users can vote using voice, gesture or the controller
