Description

Product placement, the practice of placing brands within editorial content, has recently been liberalized across the EU with the aim of tapping into an additional source of revenue for commercial television companies and programme makers while at the same time ensuring that they retain editorial control over programmes they transmit and protecting viewers from surreptitious advertising. This presentation will examine the implementation of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive rules on product placement in the UK and Germany and discuss whether the new regime is likely to achieve its aims.

This event is free.
