Advertainment

thumb|Title card from the "Colgate Comedy Hour." Advertainment is a term used to reflect the intertwining relationships between advertising and entertainment. Typically it refers to media that combines various forms of entertainment (television, movies, songs, etc.) with elements of advertising to promote products or brands. An example would be product placement in a film. The word is a portmanteau of advertising and entertainment.

Advertainment has become increasingly popular over the years and is now used in a variety of formats, including films, television programs, video games, music and books. Advertainment can be an effective way to reach a wide audience and to create greater brand engagement. However, it is important to use advertainment in a responsible and non-intrusive way.
