Well, for most of 2011, my job was to create, debug, and make informed decisions on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in the emerging browser market, and boy was it frustrating! During December of that year, I had some free time to myself, and took the time to draft an outline to a book that I would want to read, based on all the troubles I faced throughout the year. Needless to say, I had lots to say, so that outline grew to be 20+ pages, covering all topics around advertising in the digital world and more importantly how it’s being drastically altered by HTML5. In the beginning of 2012, I ended up pitching the outline to a few folks in an efort to gauge interest from other people in the industry, and from what I found quickly, I wasn’t the only one thinking about this stuf! In Q1 of 2012, I felt conident that I had developed a strong enough outline on the content, and I was really excited to write this thing! So, after signing with the kind folks at Apress, I began to write, develop, and test for most of 2012. I guess you can say I was pretty fed up with hearing things like “Will Flash deliver on tablets?” or “Why do I need to have ive versions of my ad for this responsive site?” Note: if these questions seem new to you, don’t be alarmed; I’ll cover all these topics throughout the book. Needless to say, the need in the industry was strong! With that said, let me be the irst to welcome you to the crazy world of digital advertising (if this is new to you). his industry is fast-paced, cutting-edge, and growing constantly. If there is one thing that’s consistent with it, it’s that it changes rapidly. I’ve been in this industry for nearly a decade and can attest that it requires someone with high-energy, quick timing and often someone who can deal with stressful surroundings. If you’re looking for a career change by reading this book, I feel you should know the important stuf up front. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at the next logical question: What is HTML5? he W3C states the following: HTML5 is being developed as the next major revision of HTML (HyperText Markup Language), the core markup language of the World Wide Web. HTML5 is the proposed next standard for HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and DOM Level 2 HTML. It aims to reduce the need for proprietary plug-in-based rich Internet application (RIA) technologies such as Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight. his is a great universal outline, but I’d like to elaborate on it for you as it relates to the context of this book. HTML5 is a speciication for the new and emerging open Web. It’s often a widely used term to loosely describe the ability to target platforms where Flash is not accepted. However, in reality, HTML5 is much more than that (http://platform.html5.org). It’s an evolving standard built on many web features that we’ve grown accustomed to in rich platforms, like Adobe’s Flash environment. Since HTML5 relies on the native qualities and APIs of the browser, it provides a faster and higher-performing approach to web and ad development because it ofers the same robust experiences we’ve become used to seeing with plug-ins like Flash. Conversely, since HTML5 is an evolving speciication, managed by two consortiums (W3C and WHATWG), with two diferent agendas for the speciication, it means it’s a moving target to deploy toward because there is plenty of room for fragmentation and interpretation among the marketplace regarding which browsers and devices can utilize which feature sets of the new speciication and, much more importantly, when. xxvii www.allitebooks.com ■ INTRODUCTION HTML5 is the future of the Web but more importantly the present of web advertising, especially if you want to target users in the endlessly growing mobile and tablet landscape, which is becoming a frequent request as more clients make the shift from proprietary platforms such as Flash to the open web standard for more reach and penetration. It will be many years until the advertising space has fully adopted HTML5 as its main platform for delivering and rendering ads, but this book is geared to surveying the current landscape, making some educated assumptions, and adding some developer assistance as the shift happens. Before we dig in, I’ll review what this book is and what it is not in order to set expectations accordingly. First, you must understand that the HTML5 speciication is not set for completion and inalization for years to come. On top of that understanding, the browser manufacturers will have to release inal updates and bug ixes before full adoption within the market occurs and emerging features can be used safely across browsers. Second, this book assumes you have some basic knowledge of the Web and development, which means you understand HTML, CSS, JavaScript Flash, and the use of APIs because there are code samples throughout. Next, you shouldn’t be using a dated browser and attempting to work with HTML5 and the code samples in the chapters. IE6, I’m looking at you! If this seems strange to you, trust me you’ll understand more as you read the book. So, be sure to download one of these browsers before continuing: •฀ Chrome: http://google.com/chrome •฀ Mozilla: http://mozilla.org/en-US/firefox •฀ Opera: http://opera.com •฀ Safari: http://apple.com/safari •฀ Internet Explorer: http://ie.microsoft.com Next, this book is not a beginner’s guide to coding or ad development but a guide to assisting web developers who understand code practices and how it relates to advertising on the Web, while also providing insight as to why certain things occur in the complex world of advertising. Finally, with this book, you’ll learn about HTML5 and its efects on web advertising but at the end of the day, I want you to understand how to take advantage of this cool technology within the browsers that support it. Also, I’d love to include every facet of advertising technology with regard to HTML5 in this book, but truth is there is just too much out there that’s evolving and changing, and that’s a good thing! his industry is moving so fast that any attempt to document some features would do a disservice to you and myself for wasting efort. Before we start, if you’re interested in where the HTML5 speciication develops from, please visit the following sites because the information there is always changing: •฀ http://whatwg.org •฀ http://w3c.org With that primer out of the way, let’s move on to Chapter 1 and start learning about the future of digital advertising. xxviii www.allitebooks.com CHAPTER 1 The Campaign Process Welcome to HTML5 advertising. The goal of this initial chapter is to get a complete, end-to-end view of the entire campaign process before we dig into the big stuff. Understanding the campaign process will provide insight into how everyone works together to get campaigns out the door on time. Furthermore, this book also aims to clarify where creative and development fit into the scheme. After breaking down the process

Plaintiff brings this shareholder class action on behalf of himself and all other public shareholders of On2 Technologies, Inc. (“On2” or the “Company”), against On2 and its Board of Directors (the “Board” or “Individual Defendants”), arising out of the proposed sale of On2 to defendant Google Inc. (“Google”) in a transaction valued at approximately $106.5 million pursuant to which each share of On2 common stock will be exchanged for 60 cents worth of Google Class A common stock (the “Proposed Transaction”). 2. In connection with the Proposed Transaction, however, the Board failed to discharge its fiduciary duties to the shareholders by, inter alia : (i) failing to ensure that they will receive maximum value for their shares; (ii) failing to conduct an appropriate sale process; (iii) implementing preclusive deal protections that will inhibit an alternate transaction; (iv) favoring the interests of certain “insider” shareholders over the interests of the Company’s unaffiliated public shareholders; (v) falsely portraying the Proposed Transaction as one in which the On2 shareholders will receive Google stock in exchange for their shares; and (vi) favoring its own interests in connection with the Proposed Transaction by attempting to extinguish shareholder derivative standing to evade liability for admitted accounting improprieties that resulted in the generation of false financial statements.

Selling Empowerment: A Critical Analysis of Femvertising Alexandra Rae Hunt Boston College Senior Communication Honors Thesis Dr. Michael Serazio Spring 2017 ii Abstract This thesis explores the impact of femvertising on representations of women, its relation to and conversation with third wave feminism as a growing social movement, and its extension of a brand’s dedication to corporate social responsibility. Feminist critical discourse analysis from a third wave perspective was used to conduct qualitative visual and textual analysis of three different femvertising campaigns: Dove’s “Campaign for Real Beauty,” Always’ “Like a Girl” campaign, and Pantene’s “Shine Strong” campaign. Although femvertising diversifies the representation of women and girls in the media by challenging restrictive beauty standards and damaging rhetoric, it fails to accurately represent or reference the third wave movement by shying away from the feminist label and omitting mentions of intersectionality, sexuality, and storytelling. In addition, in order for femvertising to seem genuine rather than manipulative, the campaign must reflect a sustained effort on behalf of the brand to empower women and girls through philanthropic efforts and organizational partnerships.

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jmm.v4n1a2 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jmm.v4n1a2 Hash tag Slogans, Super Bowl Commercials, and Millennial Dr. Douglas M. Carroll1 Abstract This study measures brand awareness of Super Bowl commercials using hash tag slogans with survey samples comprised of Millennial. The day after the Super Bowls of 2015 and 2016, participants were given a recognition test and asked to match the slogan with the correct brand from a list of three. Test items included traditional slogans and hash tag slogans. Participants also responded to a survey questionnaire regarding personal electronic device ownership and social media use. Results indicated greater brand awareness of traditional slogans as compared to hash tag slogans. The study also noted high degrees of electronic device ownership and social media use. Implications for researchers and marketers were discussed. Keywords: Super Bowl commercials, hash tags, online advertising, Millennial Introduction The rise of online advertising has generated considerable pressure on all other sectors in the advertising industry. Television has been the traditional gold standard for decades but today broadcast and cable networks are engaged in an ongoing competition with increasingly popular digital platforms. One strategy networks have employed is convergence or merging television and online techniques and technology. This convergence becomes evident when television producers create pop-up ads, computer generated graphics, references to social media, and hash tag slogans.
