TUBI WINS FIVE CANNES LIONS AWARDS FOR ITS ‘INTERFACE INTERRUPTION’ SUPER BOWL SPOT

June 23, 2023

TUBI WINS FIVE CANNES LIONS AWARDS FOR ITS

‘INTERFACE INTERRUPTION’ SUPER BOWL SPOT 

Awards Include Gold for “Use of Screens,” Silver in Two “Challenger Brand” Categories, and Bronze for “Use of Broadcast” and “Social Behavior & Cultural Insight”

CANNES, France; June 23, 2023 – Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation’s (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported video-on-demand service, today announced that it took home five awards at the 2023 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity for its ‘Interface Interruption’ Super Bowl spot, which was created in conjunction with its creative agency-of-record, Mischief @ No Fixed Address. Tubi was awarded Gold for “Use of Screens” in the Media category, which recognizes work that unleashes media opportunities beyond existing formats to effectively communicate a brand’s message. 

Nicole Parlapiano, Chief Marketing Officer of Tubi, said: “While we debuted Tubi’s quirky personality through an emotional narrative in our ‘Rabbit Hole’ ad, ‘Interface Interruption’ was a subversive media play designed to show you the product in a fun way. The two spots complemented each other really well. We are so proud of the Mischief and Tubi teams for this accomplishment. In addition to the absolute honor of winning us Cannes Lions, ‘Interface Interruption’ spurred a serendipitous collective experience that people continue to talk about.” 

Tubi’s ‘Interface Interruption’ spot, which launched at the Super Bowl in January 2023, was a synergistic 15-second promo created in collaboration with FOX Sports. In the promo, which aired during the fourth quarter of the game, FOX Sports announcers, Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen, came back to the game when it suddenly appeared that screens were taken over with someone scrolling through Tubi’s library searching for something to watch on its platform. As viewers were tricked into thinking someone sat on their remote, the ad instantly became one of the most talked-about moments of the Super Bowl – with Tubi trending #4 on Twitter and the free streamer notching a 40% lift in new visitors for 24 hours following the game. 

Tubi, the largest and fastest growing free ad supported TV streaming service in the US., also took home Silver “Challenger Brand” Awards in both the Entertainment and Media categories, a Bronze “Social Behavior & Cultural Insight” Award in the Entertainment Sport Category, and Bronze for “Use of Broadcast” in the Direct Category. 

Greg Hahn, Co-Founder and CCO at Mischief @ No Fixed Address, said: “Tubi and Mischief have a lot in common. We constantly search for ways to punch above our weight and subvert the norms. Our relationship has allowed us to build instant trust and execute quickly. We’re so proud that the mischief we caused during the Super Bowl resonated with the judges this year at Cannes.”

Celebrating creative work for 70 years, The Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity is considered the world’s most prestigious advertising and creativity showcase and provides the definitive benchmark for creativity that drives progress, globally. While on the ground in Cannes, Tubi launched a B2B marketing effort specifically for the creative ad community. The campaign featured nine different posters for fictitious films with titles that rang all-too-true for festival-goers, from The Idea Someone Else Did to Creative Déjà Vu. Tubi also hosted an activation on the ground at the heart of the festival, where sketch artists created custom drawings placing attendees in their own satirical Cannes posters.

TUBI HEADS TO CANNES LIONS WITH A TONGUE-IN-CHEEK CAMPAIGN CREATED FOR FESTIVAL-GOERS

June 16, 2023

TUBI HEADS TO CANNES LIONS WITH A TONGUE-IN-CHEEK CAMPAIGN CREATED FOR FESTIVAL-GOERS

Marketing Campaign Features Satirical Film Posters Created for the Cannes Lion Audience Alongside an In-Person Activation for Attendees 

SAN FRANCISCO, June 16, 2023 – Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation’s (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported video-on-demand service, today teased its latest B2B marketing campaign which will debut at the Cannes Lions Festival. Created specifically for the creative ad community, the campaign will feature nine different posters for fictitious films with titles that will ring all-too-true for festival-goers, from The Idea Someone Else Did to Creative Déjà Vu, and an activation on the ground at the festival

“On the heels of our latest Upfront-timed trade campaign, featuring short films geared towards the advertising community, we wanted to create content specifically for Cannes attendees,  highlighting the sometimes irreverent experiences we all share at the festival,” said Cynthia Clevenger, Vice President, B2B Marketing, Tubi. “Tubi is the fastest-growing free ad-supported TV streaming service in the U.S. because of our foundation in ad tech and our massive hyper-personalized library, which has something for everyone. We hear from our users all the time that they ‘feel seen,’ and we hope to exude that same sentiment to the ad community heading to France this month.” 

Alongside the out-of-home placements featuring additional mock film titles, including Posing With a Lion, Unattended Panel, and Business as Usual, Tubi will host an activation, located on the Parvis, where sketch artists will create custom drawings placing attendees in their own satirical Cannes posters. Those who stop by can score physical copies of the campaign film posters and giveaways from the streamer.

Tubi worked with Mischief @ No Fixed Address, its agency of record and the team behind its Super Bowl spots and latest campaign The Call to Action: A Film Series for Marketers, to bring the work to life. 

João Viégas, ACD at Mischief, said: “With a content library more than 50,000 titles-strong, there’s something for everyone on Tubi—even ad people. And, given that Tubi relies on advertisers as part of its model, it felt only natural that we turn up at advertisers’ biggest festival of the year. Inspiration for the campaign was extremely easy to find, given, well, we are the target audience. It was also somewhat therapeutic. And a wakeup call that I should stop bragging about awards for work I barely worked on.”

Cannes attendees can find Tubi’s Chief Marketing Officer, Nicole Parlapiano, speaking on a number of panels throughout the week, including “Making Sense of the Inputs” at the T-Mobile Cabana and “Stacking the Marketer’s Toolbox for Success” during Adweek Abroad in Cannes on Monday, as well as a panel on the Super Bowl with Mischief @ No Fixed Address and Ad Age at the Infillion Garden on Wednesday. Melanie Brown, Tubi’s Director of Advanced TV, will also be speaking on a panel, “FAST and Streaming Services: A New TV Landscape,” at the Beet.TV Villa on Wednesday. If you would like to meet up with Tubi while on the ground in Cannes, feel free to schedule a meeting

JUST IN TIME FOR UPFRONTS SEASON, TUBI DEBUTS THREE NEW FILMS CREATED FOR MARKETERS

May 1, 2023

JUST IN TIME FOR UPFRONTS SEASON, TUBI DEBUTS
THREE NEW FILMS CREATED FOR MARKETERS 

Dubbed The Call to Action: A Film Series for Marketers, Tubi’s Latest Creative Marketing Campaign Features Three Short Films, “The Gen Z Next Door,” “Under the Impression,” and “Request for Proposal” That All Shine a Satirical Light on the Inner Workings of the Ad World 

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1, 2023 – Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation’s (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported video-on-demand service, today unveiled a new ad campaign whose target audience is, ironically, attendees of industry events like the Upfronts. Dubbed The Call to Action: A Film Series for Marketers, the campaign includes three satirical 5-minute long films that span genres from romance to true crime and feature storylines that blur both the personal and professional lives of media buyers, account teams and creatives alike. Tubi worked with Mischief @ No Fixed Address, its agency of record and the team behind its Super Bowl spots, to bring the campaign to life. 

“The Upfront season is one of the most intense times of the year for buyers, so we wanted to offer them a bit of fun and levity with these hyper relevant short films,” said Cynthia Clevenger, Vice President, B2B Marketing, Tubi. “We have the world’s largest free streaming library that has attracted over 64 million monthly active users because of our ability to offer a personalized experience for each and every one of them. We hear from our audience all the time that we make them feel seen, which is the feeling we wanted to bring to the ad community through  this campaign.”  

Hunter Fine, Creative Director at Mischief, said: “It’s kinda like Inception. We created a highly-targeted ad campaign to people who buy and place highly-targeted ad campaigns. B2B marketing can rely heavily on touting the latest ad tech features or metrics. But we took a different approach, aiming to entertain with these provocative short films. It’s true to Tubi’s unconventional style—which you’ll know all about if you saw the mischief they made at this year’s Super Bowl.”

The short films, which will live on Tubi’s platform and on YouTube, include:

  • The Gen Z Next Door (Mystery) – Tasked with researching the Gen Z audience persona, Anna, a media strategist, takes a step into the unknown as she tries to understand her younger neighbor.
  • Under the Impression (True Crime) – A mild-mannered media buyer is put in the hot seat and interrogated by his higher ups when the wrong creative is trafficked.
  • Request for Proposal (Romantic Comedy) – A media buyer and her graphic designer best friend come up with an ad campaign targeting her boyfriend in hopes it will convince him to propose.

As part of the campaign, the short films will be promoted across social channels and OOH placements in key ad markets.  

Tubi accounted for 1% of total TV consumption in March, making it the most-watched FAST (free ad-supported television) service in the U.S., according to Nielsen’s The Gauge Total TV and Streaming Snapshot. Tubi delivers net-new audiences for advertisers, with 25% of Tubi streamers unreachable on other major ad-supported streaming services. Tubi’s audience continues to be young and increasingly diverse, with African American and LGBT audiences growing over 50% in 2022. Audience growth exceeded 25% in each major level of household income and the Hispanic demo, according to MRI. Tubi’s core younger demographic has remained strong, with more than 1 in 3 (36%) Tubi streamers between the ages of 18 and 34.

Tubi, Fox Corporation’s ad-supported video-on-demand service, has over 50,000 movies and TV shows, including a growing library of Tubi Originals, 200+ local and live news and sports channels, and 455 entertainment partners, featuring content from every major Hollywood studio.

Through interviews with Tesla insiders, superfans and industry experts, and , accompanied visually by extensive archive and social media footage, CULT OF ELON will track the story of Tesla’s success and examine how Elon Musk became one of the most influential and controversial business leaders in history by building a powerful cult of personality. CULT OF ELON is executive produced by Maral Usefi and Stacey Sommer. Jeb Banegas and Patrick Mannion serve as editors and Steven Bartus produces. 

VIGILANTE INC. is a deep dive investigation into the recent rise in cases of online vigilantism and asks a number of critical questions about criminal justice, privacy and policing in the internet age. Through the incredible and dystopian story of a manhunt for an arsonist in Los Angeles, the documentary follows the crime and neighborhood watch app, Citizen, as it sprung into action and tracked down a possible suspect, blasting out his photo to the app’s one million LA followers. With Citizen issuing a $30,000 bounty for the suspect –  there was just one problem – they had the wrong guy. VIGILANTE, INC. shows how quickly and easily things can spill out from the online world into the real world, sometimes with terrifying consequences. The documentary features exclusive reporting from the VICE News Tech vertical, Motherboard, including Citizen’s leaked internal Slack messages and interviews with former employees who have never appeared on camera. Directed by Paula Neudorf, who also serves as producer, VIGILANTE, INC. is executive produced by Matthew Skene and Gemma Jordan.

Beverly Chase, VP of Current Programming at VICE News, will oversee the partnership with Tubi.

Tubi’s latest partnership with VICE Media Group highlights the free streamer’s dedication to expanding its original unscripted offering and serving its viewers more of what they love.

TUBI ANNOUNCES FIRST-TO-MARKET PLANNING INTEGRATIONS AND PARTNERSHIPS AT TUBI CONNECT

New Integrations with VideoAmp’s Planning Tool, LiveRamp TV Activation and Comscore Audience Measurement, Plus Introduction of Pause Ads – Allow Brands to Tap into Tubi’s Unique and Growing Audience

NEW YORK, March 23, 2023 – Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation’s (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported video-on-demand service, today announced new first-to-market planning tools and partnerships at Tubi Connect, an event in New York City bringing together advertisers to take a deep dive into how Tubi is connecting diverse stories, brands and data with the right audiences. The new integrations enable brands to capitalize on Tubi’s rapidly growing and highly engaged audience through more informed planning decisions, identity solutions and flexible currency options ahead of Upfront season.

Tubi’s new first-to-market solutions include integrations with VideoAmp’s Premium Video Planning Tool and LiveRamp TV Activation for forecasting and planning investments, as well as partnerships with Comscore and VideoAmp to offer more choices for advertisers on how they measure audiences for their campaigns. Additionally, Tubi is expanding the success of its Sponsorship and Total Takeover formats with the addition of Pause Ads to the suite of products available to buyers.

“Tubi is the largest and fastest-growing free ad-supported TV streaming service in the US, and we offer advertisers unique and incremental TV audiences to drive brand impact,” said Mark Rotblat, Chief Revenue Officer at Tubi. “We’re expanding our partnerships with key industry players to make it easier than ever for buyers to transact on Tubi and deliver the seamless experience they need to effectively plan, activate and measure their campaigns.”

Tubi’s platform is built for 100% ad-supported content with no hidden paywalls or tiers and is optimized for viewership and engagement, not sign ups. Tubi has been at the forefront of implementing industry-first solutions to address buyers’ needs and make it easy to transact on CTV. The Tubi Ad experience features lighter ad loads, first impression Tubi total takeovers, thematic sponsorships, award-winning Advanced Frequency Management, advanced targeting and uniquely transparent Campaign Insights along with an interoperable Certified Measurement Program.

Tubi’s new planning tools, integrations and features include:

  • Integration with VideoAmp’s Premium Video Planning Tool – VideoAmp’s Premium Video Planning Tool becomes more powerful with the addition of Tubi as a streaming service. Through the first-to-market integration of Tubi into VideoAmp’s platform for Upfront and Scatter deals, brands can now plan holistically across media channels.
  • LiveRamp TV Activation – A first for any streaming service, LiveRamp TV Activation will help advertisers leverage the full universe of Tubi, giving them more control. Brands will now be able to take third- and first-party data and forecast the coverage on Tubi. Advertisers can send Tubi an audience for planned transactions, with LiveRamp helping to inform scale across Tubi’s viewership.
  • Alternative Audience Measurement – Now brands will be able to measure their campaigns via Comscore Campaign Ratings (CCR) and VideoAmp Audience Measurement, allowing advertisers the ability to test a variety of partners while the industry adapts methodologies for cross-screen measurement. With VideoAmp, brands can measure reach, frequency and attribution on Tubi, creating an end-to-end solution for advertisers to measure and optimize their cross-platform investments all in one unified platform.
  • Pause Ads – Tubi is launching Pause Ads later this year, which will feature full screen display messaging that will be presented to viewers when they pause what they are watching. Like the Total Takeover, which gives an advertiser 100% audience reach in-stream over a selected window, Pause Ads can be used to reach every viewer to deliver high impact with 100% SOV.

Tubi’s new offerings for advertisers also build on its existing suite of integrations, including Unified ID 2.0 which enables brands to find more scale across target audiences via platforms such as The Trade Desk, LiveRamp’s Authenticated Traffic Solution (ATS) that helps create addressable audiences on CTV, and its partnership with Nielsen which provides more measurement transparency across devices. Tubi’s new partnerships also complement its existing Certified Measurement Program, in which the streamer has combined forces with industry-leading measurement providers to give brands unparalleled insights on their streaming investments.

Last week, Tubi announced that it has made its debut in Nielsen’s February 2023 report from The Gauge, which tracks monthly TV usage across key content delivery platforms. According to The Gauge, Tubi accounted for 1% of total TV consumption in February, making it the most-watched FAST (free ad-supported television) service in the U.S.
