THE QUESTIONS

LOWER YOUR
EYEBROWS.

Yes, it’s a film full of ads. No, that does not excuse vague answers.

Wait. You removed the movie and kept the ads?+

Finally, someone understood the assignment. Your Ad Could Be Here is a film made from approved, advertiser-supplied commercials, plus a limited frame sequence, a shared pixel screen and end credits. The campaign follows our attempt to sell and promote this spectacularly questionable idea.

Who would voluntarily watch this?+

Curious internet people, advertising nerds and participating brands' communities. We want to find out whether marketing can make the thing people skip into something they choose. Those are intended audiences, not guaranteed viewers. We sell a defined placement, not imaginary eyeballs.

What can my brand actually buy?+

Screen time for a finished commercial, one or more individual frames, a rectangle on the shared pixel screen, an end-credit name or the general-sponsor opportunity. Early Bird base prices are $25 per frame, $1 per pixel and $100 per credit name. Screen time depends on position; general sponsorship starts with a $5,000 proposal. Your written offer sets the final scope and price.

One frame. That's one second, right?+

Nice try, time thief. At 24 frames per second, one frame lasts about 0.042 seconds. There are 720 frames in the separate 30-second sequence. Your approved still appears for the consecutive frames you buy. One frame is a blink of participation, not a readable commercial.

What does my glorious $1 pixel get me?+

One actual colored dot. Easy there, billboard tycoon. You can select a larger rectangle, draw your artwork or fit your logo into it. All approved areas appear together on one 2048 × 858 screen for 30 seconds in the film. Your area also appears on the clickable website wall for at least 12 months from publication, with one approved link.

Why does the front row of this terrible idea cost more?+

Position is part of the product. The first and last three minutes have the highest base rate; minutes 3–10 from each end have the next rate; the middle is standard. An ad crossing a boundary is charged for the time in each zone. The 60-minute timeline is a planning canvas; changes to an agreed position require your agreement.

Is Early Bird just a countdown having a nervous breakdown?+

No resetting clock. Each format has a real introductory allocation. Stage 2 is 25% above its base price and the final stage is 50% above. Larger eligible selections receive automatic savings of up to 15%; selections crossing a stage boundary get a blended price. Saving a place or receiving an unpaid offer does not lock a price allocation.

How do I claim a place without making this my second job?+

Choose a place, create an account and submit your request. We review your material and send a written offer covering price, position, rights, delivery and cancellation. Accept that offer before paying. A saved selection or free request is a wishlist item, not ownership. Capitalism remains annoyingly literal.

Can I reserve a place while my boss thinks about it?+

When the reservation window is open: 10 days costs a separate 1% holding fee; 30 days costs 2%. The full placement price is still due, making the combined total 101% or 102%, subject to cent rounding. No renewals. New reservations close three months before collections end or when 50% of commercial time is sold. Existing paid holds keep their agreed expiry. Your account shows whether this option is currently available.

Does a payment screenshot make me an advertiser?+

It makes you someone with a screenshot. A place is confirmed after your agreement is accepted and payment is verified against the actual transaction. Only use the payment route and instructions provided for your offer. If a payment is uncertain, check the account status before trying again. A return from checkout is not proof of payment.

What files do I send?+

Commercial review copy: MP4, H.264, AAC or silent, constant 24 fps, 1024 × 428, up to 8 MiB, matching your selected duration. After approval, send the full-quality 2048 × 858 original using the project's private email instructions. Frame art is PNG/JPEG at 2048 × 858; pixel art must exactly match your selected rectangle. Images are limited to 4 MiB. Credits need your business name, up to 60 characters.

Can I upload absolutely anything?+

The movie may be a bad idea. Stolen music and unlawful ads are worse ones. You must have the rights to the footage, music, brands and people in your material. We review content and technical requirements and may reject unlawful, hateful, misleading, infringing or unsuitable work. Payment does not buy immunity from review.

When does my logo actually appear on the website?+

Within 10 business days after all three are complete: full verified payment, approved artwork and your permission to publish. You approve the proof first. The approved brand name, artwork and link become public; your contact details stay private. A reservation fee alone does not start publication.

Where and when can people watch it?+

Public online viewing of the agreed film edition through this website is included, even without a cinema deal. The online target is March 31, 2027. US cinema screenings are a goal for July–September 2027; venues and dates are unconfirmed. A Guinness category and record attempt are also unapproved. Ambition is free. Announcing a booked venue requires an actual booked venue.

What if the film does not happen, or I change my mind?+

Read the cancellation and non-delivery terms in your written offer before paying. They must state the remedy, refund amounts and deadline. Early reservation cancellation releases the place and goes to refund review; lawful, evidenced deductions may apply. A fully provided hold that expires unused is normally charged as a holding service, subject to mandatory rights. 'Refund due' means action is pending, not that money has already returned.

Who is responsible for this, and can I become the main sponsor?+

Narek Nazaryan and DeFlick Production LLC in Armenia. We focus on US advertisers. The general sponsor is a negotiated package that can include lead-partner credit, a supplied 30-second commercial and agreed founder promotion. Project proceeds fund production and the founder's pay. You buy the agreed advertising deliverables; no equity, profit share or guaranteed return is included.

The accepted written offer sets your specific placement, deadline and remedies. This FAQ explains the project; it does not replace your agreement.
