Video ads for as cheap as $300

Cory Bergman December 7th, 2006

A startup called TurnHere will shoot and edit a video ad for as little as $300 a pop. Then for a little more, it will feature the ad in its own travel and entertainment directory, as well as distribute it via search engines. “It’s dirt cheap,” said Colin McAuliffe, a freelance filmmaker. It’s TV advertising for smaller companies, without the TV.

    Hmmm… color me skeptical. Can’t beat the price, to be sure, but I wonder about reach and frequency.

    The comments about reach and frequency are valid however, with more content chasing advertiser’s pre-rolls this could be an alternative revenue source for Indie content producers.

    I was at the last NY Video 2.0 Group, in NYC a week ago and Ari Paparo, VP Rich Media - DoubleClick pretty said there are few sites and content creators who are going to benefit from pre-roll revenue from major advertisers, this because there is less inventory then people think. If this is the case then perhaps initiatives such as TurnHere could gain traction?

    Come learn the truth and dominate the game.
