- – 36% of those videos were ads
- – 1 in 6 videos were watched via mobile in 2013, up from 1 in 12 back in 2012.
The video clip was produced by Shutterstock in cooperation with comScore and the creative team at Labour, “Show Me Something” was created in four different languages (English, German, Portuguese, and French) with four different sets of regional data (for the U.S., Germany, Brazil, and France). Exploring a wide range of fascinating facts, the clip tells a powerful story about our evolving relationship with media.
