This is the presentation I gave at Planningness in Brooklyn in October 2010. I must apologize as it uses BBH work examples, something I generally don't do. However, we were setting up a work session to evaluate how planners could help agencies rethink media. BBH was the guinea pig.
11. BUT WE’VE CONFUSED SYNCHRONIZATION
WITH INTEGRATION
and the output shows it
15. WE ASK A LOT OF MEDIA PEOPLE
MEDIA planning where and when to align
PLANNING/ desired consumer behavior with
BUYING relevant channels
architecting experiences at the
ENGAGEMENT intersection of consumer behavior
PLANNING
+ brand essence
tactile creative outputs using
MEDIA media as a canvas
DESIGN
(vs. a container)
16. AND NOW I’M GOING TO ASK IT OF PLANNERS
(pretty please)
17. HOW CAN YOU HELP US USE MEDIA AS
A CANVAS FOR CREATIVE IDEAS?
media is a tool, as valuable as words or images
19. HOW CAN YOU HELP KILL THE MANDATE
FOR ‘MEDIA AGNOSTIC’ THINKING?
let’s architect ideas with media
21. HOW CAN WE BE SURE WE’RE USING THE
YOUTUBE RULE TO OUR ADVANTAGE?
we must craft media-scalable ideas
23. HOW CAN YOU HELP US BUILD A MASTERPIECE,
NOT TRY TO REVEAL ONE?
ssshh, we know big ideas come from briefs
24. PRODUCT LAUNCH

FEEDBACK
= TRADITIONAL
= COLLABORATIVE

25. WE’RE TRAPED INSIDE A MAZE OF “CAMPAIGN-ABILTY”

39. CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE
evolve the creative brief to
PRODUCTIVE help use media as a canvas
rather than a container
take a ‘media agnostic’ campaign
LESS & concept terrible media tactics
PRODUCTIVE
to show them who’s boss
mingle amongst yourselves and
SCREW discuss how utterly boring this
YOU
presentation was
40. CONGRATULATIONS ON CHOOSING PRODUCTIVE
The Challenge
How can you help us use media as a canvas?
How can you help us architect ideas with media?
How can you help us craft media-scalable ideas?
How can you help us build not reveal masterpieces?
How can we use media as a cultural lens?
How can we understand the impact of the channel on
the content?
41. CONGRATULATIONS ON CHOOSING LESS PRODUCTIVE

42. CONGRATULATIONS ON CHOOSING SCREW YOU
The Lowlights
When I showed too much BBH work
How much I said “uuuhhhh”
Assuming you could read red on black
The night club called; they want my shirt back
