- Capturing someone’s attention in a matter of seconds might sound like a complex creative challenge. But in the supersaturated media environment that people now live in, it’s crucial to your marketing. For a growing number of marketers, mastering the six-second video ad is a key component of their efforts. Luckily, the brands on the latest YouTube Bumpers Leaderboard — which features this year’s most-watched six-second bumper ads from across the globe — have some pointers.
