Rich media creatives can be built in Studio or Google Web Designer, or uploaded directly (rich media banners only). These creatives use HTML5 to give ads complex features: rich media creatives can play videos, support multiple interactions, expand or float across the page, and engage users with other effects.
When you use rich media creatives, you can also track how users interact with these features. For example, you might track the number of times an ad is expanded, which interactions are popular, or how many times a video is watched until the end.
You can assign rich media creatives to standard ads.
- Use Studio's Enabler to trigger exit events instead of click tags
- Can include rich media components, such as video, 3D objects, browser scrolling detection, viewport detection
- Can include Google Web Designer's parallax, swirl, or live stream components
- Can expand in size or expand to fullscreen
Before you get started
You can upload rich media banners directly to Campaign Manager 360. To use advanced rich media features, you'll need to associate your Campaign Manager 360 advertiser with a Studio advertiser so you can receive creatives. Users in an associated Studio advertiser can then push their rich media creatives to your creative library.
Creative types you can build in Studio:
- Banner
- Expanding
- Interstitial
- VPAID
- Dynamic
