Creative of the Month ??
This month, the award goes to…??????… Experimentarium !
This ad created by Experimentarium offers a brief glimpse into the fun experiences available to their visitors.
While these activities are definitely meant for kids, I can't help but feel a tiny bit intrigued... Which proves the high standards of this ad.
The sleek, almost rhythmic appearance created by the fluid text animations are definitely something to be inspired from.
Speaking of appearance, the recurring vibrant blue color across the fast-paced changing video frames gives the ad a visual pop ??
Big kudos to the ad creator, Anne Viberg Pedersen , and Experimentarium for this one!
Tip of the Month ??
There's few bigger pains for ad creators than having designed a masterpiece of a display ad... only to realize your creative weighs more than a brick house. Not literally, but it sure feels like it.
This can be an issue since display ads require hosting - and the price of hosting depends on the size of the creative. Larger ads means less money in your pocket.
So without further ado, here's...
3 ways you should be optimizing your creatives.
1. JPEG files are generally lighter than JPG files. Try converting your chunky JPGs to JPEGs, and in the future, export as JPEG instead. It can actually make a surprising difference!
2. But if your images still aren't slim enough, you'll need to give them a little squeeze. This is where image compressors come in handy. Personally, I use tinyPNG at Zuuvi; simple tool - gets the job done.
What if I have a GIF, that's waaay too big? ... No, you cannot convert GIFs into JPEG for obvious reasons. ??
3. Swap out these hefty?GIFs for video files when it comes to short animations and clips. They are much lighter and often look smoother. Win-win.
These steps will decrease your file size and allowing your piggy bank to stay intact for longer. You should aim for a maximum of 300 kb per display ad.
And trust me - you can be plenty creative with just 300 kb! ??
