Promos and PSAs

The Open Media Globe

 

If you want to run a short videos such as PSAs or Promos you should always create a new project for them to be in if they are a part of a regular series. The reason for this is that when the autoscheduler looks for a new show in your project it can't distinguish between what you want to air in that timeslot based on length. So your 2-minute promo may get scheduled instead of your full-length show. For this reason it would be best to create a new project with the same title + promos. In the future you will also be able to add trailers and leaders from this new project.

You now also have the option when creating a Project Page to select the program type as PSA or Promo. Promos are for things promoting some event or show that is likely to have a limited airtime. A PSA is a short program that could be an ongoing announcement or campaign.

Type of project

When creating one of these types of programs please choose your SCHEDULING OPTIONS on show page.
