A new web app for product placement has launched, with a different take on how product placement deals can be approached. Product Place Me, founded by Rex Riepe, co-founder of Presskit’n and HootCourse, seeks to take on bad product placement with a “scripts first” policy.
The web app works as a simple mailing list which puts filmmaker-submitted placements in front of advertisers. By only accepting concrete, already-in-the-script placements, Product Place Me ensures that placements follow the script, instead of scripts being written around a placement.
The initial version of the app includes a signup page for advertisers and a submission page for filmmakers.
Especially important for struggling filmmakers: Product Place Me is completely free. Submissions don’t even require a signup.
In addition to traditional film placements, Product Place Me also has categories for TV, video games, celebrity wear and events.
