Meanings
-
(not-comparable, of a television advertisement) Running for a relatively long time, typically more than two minutes.
Ads may be either long form (30- to 60-minute slots) or short form (30 seconds to 2 minutes). Long-form ads have the advantage that they can paint a richer picture of the organization's activities and more fully develop the essence of its brand.
