Beats by Dre Creative Advertising Strategy Externship
Overview
The project surveyed video-ad formats and platform behaviors across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, and analyzed factors that shape ad visibility and audience attention. The work mapped algorithmic drivers, attention-economics principles, and the competitive landscape in the premium audio market.

What I've accomplished
I collected and cataloged more than 25 video ads across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, coding each for hook type, talent strategy, CTA, sound, production, and flagging duplicates and quality issues in a shared spreadsheet.
