To submit your advertising content, click on the link below and use the form to upload your file(s). Make sure you check the content guidelines section below prior to submitting anything.

Upload Content

 

Content Guidelines

You may upload images or video files. Before creating content, we strongly advise that you refer to the University's Digital Content Guidelines. You should also note the following:

Images - please use JPEG or PNG format images, 16:9 aspect ratio and a minimum of 1920 x 1080 pixels in size.

Video - please use MP4 or AVI format, 16:9 aspect ratio and 1920 x 1080 pixels in size. Note that the screens do not have speakers so if your video has sound, it will not be audible.

Quality Control - all content will be checked before it appears on screen. If your content does not meet the requirements above, it will not be made live and you will be contacted and asked to submit new content. Content must also be University specific.

Notice period - we ask that you send your advert(s) to us as far in advance of the "go live" date as possible. Whilst we may be able to process requests at shorter notice, this may take up to 4 working days.

Screen Time - due to the number of adverts being submitted, we operate a fair usage policy on screen time. This means that all images will stay visible for 15 seconds at a time and videos for 1 minute (or the length of the video if that is shorter). All adverts will be placed into a rotation, so how often your advert will appear on screen will depend on how many adverts are are currently in the rotation. We will also not normally allow any advert to remain "live" for longer than 3 months duration and to allow fair use of this service, please restrict the number of items included in any submission request to 3 or fewer.
