In VOD We Trust 2015

In October 2014, Channel 4 undertook a pioneering
study with Cog Research and Dr Amanda Ellison at
Durham University, using Eye Tracking & Skin
Conductance Response to understand exactly how
people consume VoD.
We found that advertising on TV on-demand players
outperforms YouTube for viewer acceptance,
engagement and attention.

Channel 4s on-demand player (4oD) grabbed 80% of

respondents attention versus YouTubes 20%

YouTubes cluttered visual environment increases the work a

viewers brain has to do by 50% as they process what to
watch next whilst the ads are playing, reducing their ability to
concentrate

Five seconds of free YouTube airtime is unlikely to be of any

significant benefit as viewers were impatient to skip the ad
when given the option to do so and less inclined to engage
and opt in

Get in touch to see the full study.
