Think Outside The Video Box: 10 Examples of Youtube Takeovers

April 28, 2011

There are many creative ways to use video, but Youtube takeovers take the cake. Grabbing people’s attention on the world’s largest video site is becoming harder all the time so many brands are looking for new ways to stand out from the crowd and create buzz. Youtube takeovers are one of the best ways of doing that.

YouTube takeovers are actually Flash scripts that run on the page instead of the traditional video box. That is why they don't work when the videos are embedded. So, to see the full animated examples of each Youtube Takeover, you'll have to click on the images to be taken to the corresponding YouTube page. Enjoy!
