Overview

Description

yuTUBERS is a new hybrid format (digital-radio-social & television) in the Spanish audiovisual offer, so there is no regulatory framework clearly applicable. The current regulatory framework of the LGCA (Audiovisual Communication General Law) basically appeals to TV formats, so the restrictions apply to traditional advertising and sponsorship formulas, mainly during the advertising times and broadcasting slots.

By now, these limitations benefit to more flexible formulas like branded entertainment, where there are no time restrictions and where the action goal is finding a natural space for the brand in a content that add value to the users in addition to entertain them.

Execution

We created the first youtubers program to make the leap into television; the first TV show made by those who don’t watch TV; the first YouTube Late Night show seen on the radio; a project by a brand recommended by those who laugh at brands.

yuTUBER:

32 TV shows in Comedy Central produced with the help of Viacom.

More than 200 program in “40 Principales” a Spanish leading radio station. A one-hour program with the ability to laugh at itself, where everything that happens at the studio goes on the Internet.

And a lot of Youtube videos, memes, tweets...
