SmartNews App


CTV Campaigns 


We developed a trio of CTV ads for SmartNews, built to increase app awareness and installs across Roku, Hulu, and other streaming platforms. The creative leaned into fast-paced visuals, bold messaging, and platform-specific formatting to break through in high-noise, low-interaction environments. Each spot was tailored to test different value propositions—from unbiased news delivery to local updates and personalization.
