Scorsese Spot For Dolce & Gabbana Breaks Out on YouTube

When it comes to brands as publishers on YouTube, it's typically Red Bull or GoPro's world. But not last week.  Instead, a pair of luxury brands proved to be unexpected YouTube stars, thanks to Martin Scorsese, Matthew McConaughey and David Bowie. Last week, an arty, black-and-white Scorsese-directed Dolce & Gabbana spot took off on YouTube, landing it atop the VideoWatch/VidIQ branded video ranker with 3.2 million views and an 84 percent average view-through. The one-minute clip, which also features Scarlett Johansson, even prompts users to check out a director's cut. In second place on the ranker was a similar, so-not-typical YouTube music video for Louis Vuitton featuring an extremely young-looking David Bowie. That spot delivered 3 million views. Check out the full VidIQ chart here: NOTE: Adweek’s VideoWatch Chart, powered by VidIQ, reveals the Top 10 Branded Web Videos on YouTube every week.
