brand placement

Embedded commercial content

Brand placement is the practice of featuring commercial products or logos within entertainment media—films, television shows, video games—as a form of advertising.

Unlike traditional commercials, brand placement integrates products into the content itself: a character drinks a specific soda, drives a recognizable car, or uses a particular laptop.

The brand placement in that movie was so obvious it was distracting.

Also called product placement.
