Blacked.com Announces Winner of Video Ad Contest

BARCELONA, Spain—Blacked.com, in conjunction with Traffic Junky, is proud to announce the winner of their $5,000 Video Ad Contest. To celebrate the launch of their new high-end anal site, Tushy.com, the team behind Blacked.com worked with renowned ad platform Traffic Junky to offer a contest in early August, searching for talented video editors. Open to all individuals, contestants were given a selection of Tushy.com’s best scenes, and tasked with creating 300x250, 8-12 second video ads. From the submissions, three entries were chosen and ran on $10,000 worth of Traffic Junky ad inventory to determine the best-performing ad. The winning video editor would receive a $5,000 prize, and a potential offer to join the team. “We received an unprecedented number of entries,” said Michael Chan, Marketing Manager of the affiliate program. “The community responded with such an incredible amount of high-quality submissions that we wanted to give everyone fair attention. It was not easy choosing the three finalists.” The final three ads were: Finalist 1 Finalist 2 Finalist 3 After running the ads head-to-head on Traffic Junky’s ad network and careful monitoring of many performance indicators, the winner was Finalist 2. “We were looking for someone who understands our brand and could translate that to an eye-catching ad,” said Greg Lansky, Chief Creative Officer. “I’m very happy we found that person, but also thankful to everyone else who created amazing ads, and took the time to participate.” The winner will also be contacted regarding future collaborations.
