Time has decided to make advertising a little more interactive and creative with a new Double Snap model. The ad would start as a regular Toyota banner at the top, and as you scroll down the ad will “snap” into a larger interactive ad, then as you scroll further, the ad will move out of the way.
This new format is “intended to be eye-catching, but not overbearing,” reports AdWeek. It always leaves the user with access to the content but its also meant to be “impossible to miss.”
