Here’s What Viewers Voted As YouTube’s Most Iconic Ads Of 2017
Advertising has no shortage of industry awards, but considering we’re all just as—or more—likely to see a good commercial on YouTube as on TV, the annual collaboration between YouTube and The Webby Awards may be the most egalitarian of them all. The public chooses six winners from 30 nominees across six categories for the ad that’s your Guilty Pleasure, Puts Stars In Your Eyes (celebrity), Knows No Limits (inspirational), Takes A Stand (voice for change), Goes Straight To The Heart, and Has Six Appeal (six-seconds long).
Check out the winners below.
