30 March 2017 - Video viewership on Twitter continues to grow exponentially as this electronic medium has become an increasingly important channel for publishers, creators and brands to reach their audiences.

Mike Folgner (@mfolgs), Group Project Manager, Periscope, stated “Pre-roll ads on Periscope video enable brands to marry their message with specific broadcasts from creators and publishers. The same control that brands have to design their campaigns through the Amplify program will be extended to the new opportunities created with these ads. The experience will mirror how ads currently appear on all Twitter video. When consumers scroll through their timelines or search for content from a specific publishers or creators, Periscope videos - live and replay - can start with a short ad.”
Ads on Periscope content are a new way to use live and on-demand video to reach audiences at the most relevant moments. Periscope’s authentic and interactive nature brings people immediately into compelling live experiences and the conversation that surrounds them. From 360 degree and professionally-produced broadcasts to spontaneous mobile live video, stories can be shared through a wide range of video content.
For creators and publishers that use Periscope that go live on Twitter every day, these pre-roll ads present a new way to monetize their video content. For marketers, they have a new source of brand-safe video advertising beyond what was previously available, including ads during live streaming programs from select premium publishers, Promoted Tweets with Periscope video, and custom Amplify campaigns with premium content creators.
First announced globally on March 2015, Periscope has been popular among Filipinos for sharing their live experiences on Twitter. Well known personalities, influencers and industry professionals uses the platform to connect with their audience. The app is also used for concerts, behind the scenes, new shows, and their latest escapades.

Ads on Periscope videos are now available to select advertisers through custom Amplify packages, and will roll out more broadly in the coming months. To learn more, contact your Twitter representative about packages that include this new offering.
