Hailing from the communications industry and beyond, they will share their expertise not only on how to find the inspiration that sparks creative new ideas, but also – and perhaps more importantly – on the most effective ways of turning this inspiration into real innovations, and putting creativity into action.

Today’s theme: Creative Talent

Creativity is a talent business. To succeed, organisations must find, develop and retain the most creative people. The businesses that actively search for bright thinkers with an array of skills, backgrounds and perspectives are the ones that succeed. Where do you find true talent? How do you keep it? What are the structures that allow creativity to flourish? This Forum answers these questions and more. Moderator: Sasha Martens, Sasha the Mensch

The Cannes Lions Festival is big. Seven days packed with seminars, workshops, discussions, classes, awards and the occasional party. There’s so much to see, learn and experience, and so many people to meet, it can be difficult to know where to start. This exclusive welcome session for Young Lions and students will help you get the most out of your Cannes Lions experience, with a special appearance from a Cannes Lions legend.

An introduction to the day’s Forum theme with moderator Sasha Martens.

Today, the most successful companies don’t just attract the best talent, they’re also best at unlocking talent. In their work across the creative industries, The Lookinglass has identified the practices used by those companies that consistently win the Talent Wars. Charles Day will discuss how these practices apply to your business, and will explode some myths about how to attract and retain the best talent, including why a company’s culture is not the Holy Grail. Charles is joined by representatives of leading creative organisations to explore how they bring these principles to life every day and have built an organisation that attracts talent gravitationally.

This session is followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from this session.

Creativity is effective in today’s world if you can master the concept of relevance. With millions of messages and images competing for our attention, we have become experts at screening out what is irrelevant to us. Why do some ideas penetrate? Why do some brands and celebrities endure the fickleness of time Golin will conduct a pioneering, live experiment on stage with legendary icon, David Hasselhoff. With our command of the science of relevance and the power of social media, Cannes Lions attendees will be invited to create and share Hoff-based content around the world. Can we build his brand in real time? Have we trended? What are the funniest posts and retweets? What is the impact of the campaign so far and, most importantly, who in the audience has won a trip to see The Hoff? Delegates will leave with practical ideas on how to apply relevance to any creative campaign and several “Were you there?” moments for the Croisette. If you’ve ever wanted to drive Knight Rider’s car or wear a red Baywatch jacket, this seminar is for you.

This session examines the approach to fostering a culture of creativity in a highly pressured, fast-moving organisation. The speakers explore the importance of adhering to a set of principles and practices for managing creative talent in order to build a sustainable creative environment. Topics include the celebration of risk taking, how to ensure creativity is central to every decision from the outset of any project and the imperative that creativity is a driving force throughout an organisation, not just in the creative department.A+E Networks is a multi-billion dollar global media entertainment company well known for the creativity of its content. Its networks and branded programming reach more than 300 million households in 150 countries. A+E’s portfolio of networks includes the genre-busting History network and the record-breaking A&E network. A+E’s internal agency, 360 Creative, is responsible for a significant proportion of the organisation’s marketing communications, from advertising and internal communications through to events.

At festivals we celebrate the best advertising in the world, but even the best creatives have done really bad work that has never been shown. Whether it’s the result of risk-taking or mere miscalculation, the fact is that our biggest creative flops have the seed of greatness gone wrong. During this seminar, some of the most awarded creatives in the world will share, for the first time, their worst work and what they have learned along the way.

Marketers often overlook and undervalue the power of sound in their quest to develop distinct, memorable brand identities. In today’s media-rich environment, where audio-enabled touchpoints are increasingly available, the strategic use of sound plays a key role in brand differentiation, recognisability, preference, emotional connection and purchase intent. We’ll explore the discipline of audio branding, opening your ears to how brands can harness the power of sound to engage consumers, establish identity, and maximise ROI. Through discussion and hands-on (or, even better, ‘ears-on’) exercises, participants will:• Develop an understanding of audio branding as a process: from

strategy and creation to testing and management• Use audio audits to uncover sonic strengths, weaknesses,

opportunities, and threats• Evaluate audio moods based on specific brand profiles• Construct a brand centric music brief• Learn to identify the audio ROI ‘sweet spot’: engagement, identity,

and monetisation

This session is repeated at 14:00.

Hockey great Wayne Gretzky famously said the secret to his success is that “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.” And that’s exactly the advice the creative industry needs in order to thrive in the future. As both a digital school and an executive training consultancy, Hyper Island is in a unique position to have witnessed first-hand what it takes to nurture and develop young talent as they enter the industry – as well as how to inspire confidence and clarity in executives faced with disruptive change. Hyper Island invites you to an inspirational session where it will present ideas on how to become a front seat driver in the creative industry. Micke Ahlström will present the latest research, ‘Tomorrow’s Most Wanted’, showing what talent the creative industry will need three to five years from today.

This session is followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from A+E Networks and hyper Island.

Ignore the pundits. Advertising is not dying. It’s about to be reborn, and about to explode into a new era of growth. The Advertising Renaissance has begun. Are you and your agency prepared for it? No longer will advertising be an interruption, an expensive distraction competing for our attention. Instead, it will be the core stimulus for human dialogue and brand engagement, and a celebration of our shared and individual needs. Instead of replacing fact with ‘message’, advertising is set to become a proclamation of what is authentically ‘true’ about a product, a service, and especially, a brand. This interactive workshop will be fast-paced and inspiring, showing participants how to re-imagine their own careers, the application of their talents to emerging client challenges, and redesign the very form and structure of their agencies themselves. Attendees will: • Redesign core roles and key competencies enabling their agencies

and careers to sustainably grow • Imagine and describe a transformative innovation program that

will drive client success • Invent at least one new tool for creative innovation that they can

Today, the creative process is becoming faster, more flexible and more open. It’s a feedback loop, where the audience has a seat at the writers’ table. It’s an opportunity to create not just with words and pixels, but also with people, ideas and opinions. And it’s all happening live. Twitter is seeing this creative and cultural shift from the front-lines, working with partners across TV, film, news, music, new media and, most importantly, brands and creatives. The live storytelling movement is perhaps the greatest shift in our industry today and this seminar looks to shine a light on the incredible work, emerging process and creative people behind it today. In this seminar, Joel Lunenfeld leads a conversation about how this new form of storytelling and creativity is actually being executed. The talk will include a select group of influencers in this space, across a variety of disciplines, with supporting footage and case studies that reveal the insiders’ view.

In Greek mythology, Theseus used Ariadne’s thread to slay the Minotaur and crack the labyrinth. Instead of considering that only one route might lead to freedom, Theseus was able to explore all possible routes as many times as he liked, knowing the thread would always lead back to the start.

Think pluralistically. Don’t be singular. Instead, explore all avenues, nurturing multiple ideas simultaneously, rather than using a process of elimination to find the ‘right idea’.Ideas are autonomous. Ideas can’t be forced – the onus on us, as creatives, should not be to ‘create’ them. The focus should be on getting better at spotting and running with them. Ideas need entertainment, not to be put in the inquisition chair. Paranoia or a zealous drive to find the ‘right’ idea will kill great ideas.Imagine, don’t dig. Often, clients think creativity is a process of discovery, of digging until we find the right answer.

The possibilities are endless: like Theseus, the only way of finding truly creative solutions is to acknowledge and harness this.

What is it about sports that gets marketers’ creative juices flowing? And how does advertising in big events like the Olympic Games and World Cup differ?

Marcello Serpa, Chairman and Chief Creative Officer, Almap BBDO in Brazil (host country for this year’s FIFA World Cup) leads a spirited discussion that examines why marketers use sports as a business-building creative platform. Marcello is joined by Kevin Burke, CMO at Visa Inc., to talk specifically about why and how Visa has used sports to build business and launch its new global ‘Everywhere you want to be’ platform.Rounding out this discussion are appearances by US Gold Medalist Freestyle Skier David Wise and World Cup footballer Marcel Desailly, who share their own personal stories of sports and how partnering with global brands like Visa has inspired them to achieve their own ‘everywhere’.

Brands regularly leverage celebrities and entertainment content as a way to create an emotional connection with a more engaged consumer. Content integrations, branded content, commercial tie-ins, or whatever is the jargon du jour, consistently achieve better results for savvy marketers attempting to capture the attention, interest and affection of the ‘skip generation’ and their ever-enhanced ability to avoid, evade and disregard traditional advertising. For new ventures, the ability to rapidly burst into the market and grab widespread consumer attention, often with very limited marketing budgets, is vital. In this seminar, we will discuss best practices for new ventures and emerging brands to leverage established brands, celebrities and entertainment content marketing to quickly gain ground and mindshare.

If you could start afresh and train a creative to know everything they need to know to create great communications, how much copywriting and art direction would you teach them? As communications has completely changed from a passive to an interactive landscape, has our training of creatives changed along with it? To create ideas that get people involved, or ideas that ebb and flow through culture, is difficult. There is more clutter to cut through and less resources to do it with. We’ll need to get better at our jobs and rely less on clever penmanship, and more on the emerging disciplines such as behavioural sciences (how to change behaviour), technology and data. So how then do we inject this kind of thinking into the creative department? Although ‘making it up as we go along’ has been a good strategy up until now, it’s doubtful if it will be good enough moving forwards. Imagine if you could start from scratch and re-train our creatives – what would you do?

India is not a country, it’s a continent. As you move from north to south in India, everything changes – food, clothing, language, weather and even the look of people, from Aryan to Dravidian. There are five languages spoken by over 70 million people (greater than the population of UK), and 11 by over 30 million (more than the population of Australia). Within an overall Indian culture, there are many subcultures. The biggest film star in the north, Amitabh Bachchan, finds limited traction in south India, which has a population of 250 million with four different languages!

Advertising creativity has to manage this diversity when it tells its brand stories. Many local and global brands have successfully managed this. Creativity in India is about using emotions and visual stories and getting deep into local culture to make strong consumer connections. What the west can imbibe from India is how to manage diversity and the importance of understanding local culture to win consumers.

Why are all planners at Holler sent on intensive stand-up comedy workshops, and asked to perform at comedy clubs? Ever wondered what the best creative planners and the best stand-up comedians have in common? James Kirkham and Jonathan Fraser explore and prove the similarities between the art of planning and stand-up comedy. Split across the three core areas of creative planning: uncovering insights, crafting those insights to meet a brief, and the delivery of your thinking to clients. More importantly than just proving it, they want to give a glimpse of what planners can learn from stand-up comedians, and vice-versa (in case Chris Rock is looking for a career change). The session demonstrates the importance to creativity of unlocking the inner comedian, with the aim of creating a Secret Society of Stand-ups within advertising. Expect live interaction, stand-up technique spotting, call backs and alerting the crowd to look out for either planning or comedy origins. Very participatory and hopefully genuinely hilarious.

Sunday 15 june

Steve Jobs famously said “creativity is just connecting things.” In Where Good Ideas Come From, Steven Johnson identifies seven patterns of innovation that depend on creating opportunities for the collision of perspectives and ideas. By building on those, you have a framework for discussing how creativity needs to work inside organisations in an age of smarter clients looking for better partners, not just new ideas. Michael Lebowitz will discuss breaking down silos and leveraging every available skill to make creativity everyone’s responsibility and create more value, faster. A pioneer of Digital DUMBO, Lebowitz has shunned the ‘creative department’ since he set up shop in 2000. In fact, he doesn’t allow the word in anyone’s title. Hear Lebowitz draw from his own experience putting creativity at the center of his company culture and discuss how emerging and longstanding businesses can harness its power to innovate inside and out. Your brand is the sum of its interactions. Creativity is what makes them work together.

The call for more more female creative directors is not just about fairness, equality and diversity (although these are very valid reasons). It is fundamentally good business. Women are driving the economy by bringing in more than half the income in 55% of US households and dominating social networks. Women account for upwards of 80% of all purchases in every consumer category, are early adopters of tech and drivers of social media, and will control two-thirds of the US wealth in less than a decade. Yet when asked if they think advertisers understand them, 90% say no. The ad world is slowly waking up to the fact that ‘business as usual’ will put us out of business, but with only 3% of CDs being female in agencies today we’re killing this epic opportunity to be a hero for our clients. Join SheSays for a panel discussion with its co-founder and inspirational speakers who are driving change in the industry.

This session will be followed by a Q&A session with the Forum speakers. The Forum moderator, Sasha Martens, will then share his thoughts on the day’s sessions.

Digital publishing is headed off a cliff if we don’t get back behind the wheel. There’s a five-fold gap between mobile revenue and desktop revenue for the same page. In other words, for every page viewed on a mobile device, publishers currently see only 20% of the revenue they’d receive from a desktop visit. What makes that gap even starker is how quickly it’s happening. By the second half of next year, Say Media predicts more than half of all time spent with online content will happen on a mobile device. On the industry’s current course, that’s a recipe for disaster… That said, mobile also represents a massive opportunity for content creators and marketers alike. Engagement is higher. You can access content on the go. And as a platform, it lends itself to social discovery more than desktop content.

Say Media CEO Matt Sanchez lays out the challenges - and the exciting new creative strategies that are improving engagement and harnessing the power of mobile for advertisers and publishers.

Advertisers have adopted Real-time bidding (RTB) over the past couple of years as it provides real-time feedback on the consumer’s browsing habits, enabling increased personalisation of the ad playing. However, RTB is still limited to the traditional web due to the lack of – or difficulty enabling – cookies on mobile devices. Mobile advertising has historically been risky for brands and agencies due to the seemingly intrusiveness of the ads. In addition to the perception of mobile advertising, the large adoption of RTB by both publishers and brands has transformed the ad landscape by enabling full personalisation of the adverts playing online. Synched advertising, which relies on a link between the TV and the mobile screen, enables brands and agencies to leverage the viewer’s TV consumption habits to ensure they reach the right audience with the most relevant advert. This session will provide guidance for brands and agencies looking for increased ROI of their mobile video creative, whether as part of a social advertising mix or a complete media buying plan.

Solar Impulse is the first ever solar-powered plane capable of flying day and night with unlimited endurance. It is part of a revolutionary movement that combines science, technology and creativity to evoke the timeless spirit of adventure and shows that we can achieve anything with ambition and imagination. Motivated by a higher purpose to change the current paradigm of energy, innovation and technology, two pilot-pioneers – Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg – joined forces to design, engineer, fund, build and fly a solar-powered plane from scratch. People said it could not be done, but through their determination and vision, Solar Impulse proved that no challenge or obstacle is too great when the power of creativity is unleashed. As a result, they created a plane that carries a powerful message, not just passengers. Interviewed by Christopher Nurko of FutureBrand, the pilots will describe their inspirational journey over ten years, which led them to challenge all our assumptions about the potential for manned solar-powered flight and clean technologies.

Pictures are the language of our generation – a powerful cultural force in an age where advertising and social media has saturated us with visuals. But what message do our images send? Visual media often portrays women as sexualised, sidelined or in supporting roles, and research shows that the more media a girl consumes the less options she believes she has in life. Fortunately, this is changing. On social media, where females are the majority of users, young women are using the language of images – from memes to GIFs to the rise of the #uglyselfie – to shift perceptions about gender and power. Through visual language, YOU have the power to effect change, too. Join image anthropologist Pam Grossman and award-winning journalist Jessica Bennett to examine the changing relationship we have with images – and how we can all use our creativity to shape the future.

In early 2012, Dan Greenberg wrote the first ever series of articles on a new term – ‘native advertising.’ In less than two years the term has exploded in use, especially in relation to mobile advertising. Recently, Dan co-chaired the IAB Native Ad Taskforce, which published an overview of the space that formally recognised a selection of emerging native ad formats. Dan will provide the definitive overview of how the native advertising category has evolved and the key creative and technological trends in mobile.

Some of the core subjects that will be explored include: What types of ads are being promoted through mobile native ads? What is driving the best performance? What is a native mobile exchange and how is it different from display or pre-roll ad exchanges? How are native ads effecting mobile monetisation for publishers?

Creativity is exploding. With the proliferation of technology and new media, creativity is no longer the domain of a select few. Today, more people have access to creative tools and avenues for expressing themselves to more people than ever before. The opportunity and rewards of creativity have never been brighter. But while this digital explosion has put creative possibility and capability in the hands of more people and in more places, it’s brought tremendous upheaval to creative professionals, agencies, and the work they do. Today’s creative professionals must re-invent themselves. Art directors can no longer be ‘just’ art directors and designers can no longer be ‘just’ designers.

If storytelling is the most powerful way to put ideas into the world today, then mobile is its most powerful delivery method. While mobile may be the smallest screen, it has become the primary screen for many consumers. As a result, mobile can provide the ultimate stage for storytelling moving marketers closer to their consumers and inviting them to live within the brand story on a daily basis. In this discussion, moderated by Greg Stuart, CEO of the MMA, you’ll hear marketing innovator John Costello, President of Global Marketing and Innovation at Dunkin Brands share his thoughts on the transition of mobile from the third to the first screen and how this shift has changed the marketers’ playbook to think beyond brand as a product, and embrace a lifestyle mentality that embodies and inspires consumer self-expression.

‘Back to the Future’ will be the official theme for this year’s SAWA seminar, as the famous movie trilogy approaches its major milestone when Marty McFly and Doc Brown travel from the year 1985 to 2015 in Back to the Future II.

At a time when engagement with the customer is paramount, the captive cinema audience can now be inspired, enthralled and participate in a way that even Doc Brown would love. 2015 is predicted to be one of the biggest years in cinema, with international blockbusters lined up to attract millions of cinema-goers to the big screen and set to deliver record box office numbers.

Cinema has been showcasing the future use of technology in movies since film first arrived. In that tradition SAWA will run a 45-minute innovation showcase connecting the past, the present and the future of products and brands, proving that cinema truly is “the portal to the future”. It will highlight new and innovative ways the integration of technologies can connect advertisers and brands with rich entertainment content in 2015.

Travel through the portal to the 5th floor Estérel Theatre at noon on Monday 16 June 2014 – and you will truly feel that like you have been ‘Back to the Future’.

According to Keith Reinhard, Chairman Emeritus of DDB Worldwide, the recipe for creative achievement has three ingredients: Talent, which God gives you, either a little or a lot. According to Keith there is nothing you can do about the size of your gift. Skill, which he says you can do a lot about, through learning, training and practice. And passion, which Keith believes can trump the other two. He agrees with the German philosopher who said “Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion” and, in his master class, Keith will show why this is true. His presentation includes stories from his own career as he rose from a cub copywriter to creative leader, Co-founder of Omnicom and Chairman, CEO of DDB Worldwide, one of the world’s most awarded advertising agency networks.

Mobile devices can not only connect their users, distribute content and deliver experiences – the future of mobile is an entertainment hub, uniting the worlds of gaming, music, live events and social media. As wireless capacities increase, the potential of mobile is only limited by the quality of the content and the context in which it is served. There’s no reason why content for handheld devices shouldn’t be as good – if not better – than traditional broadcast media. Could device manufacturers be the media owners of the future, and just how innovative can you be with mobile-only content? With case study examples featuring Michael Jackson, Rita Ora and Kasabian who found new audiences through Sony Xperia Access, Matt Beavis, Sony Mobile, Crystina Cinti, Sony Music and Mark Walsh of Citizen Relations will show just what the handheld screen is capable of.

Does it ever seem like we’ve been having the same conversation about social responsibility, sustainability and ‘social good’ for years and years? It seems we’ve been talking to the same target audiences about the same things and recommending the same strategies for decades. It’s time for a different conversation about social good and this hands-on, strategic planning workshop will show you how. Attendees will be given a proprietary brief and work in groups to develop fresh ideas and purpose pathways for a major global brand.

They will learn:

• How to look at the target audience differently based on new global research that identifies a bigger, broader, better audience for social impact messages. This target – ‘Generation World’ – has different attitudes and expectations about brands.

• How to reframe the strategic conversation. We’ll share a different way of landing on a strategy that lets you ask better questions, so you get to better answers.

• How to execute differently. We’ll share best practices and cases from companies and brands that have successfully changed the conversation.

Technology is rapidly changing the world we live in, affecting our experiences, interactions, expectations and the way brands engage consumers. Immersing the consumer within the DNA of a brand by engaging as many human senses as possible is becoming the go to strategy for experiential activations. Drive discusses three examples of where technology is forcing the advertising industry to adapt. Drive explores the future of projection mapping, taking it beyond spectacle to permanent installation, showcasing how architects and building developers are now designing buildings with projection mapping in mind. Drive explores the potential of Virtual Reality headsets like Oculus Rift and takes you on a tour of its lab and the role it plays in crafting out the future of experiential, using a myriad of technologies to overwhelm the senses and catapult experiences into a new dawn of entertainment.

Imagination is the only restriction to innovation. Whether harnessing humidity to create drinking water for UTEC or teaching dogs to drive for Mini, FCB (Foote Cone and Belding) knows the power of imagination has the potential to set ideas free. Thus, FCB is proud to partner with Framestore – technological masters who make the impossible possible – to reveal a fascinating, behind-the-scenes look at the magic of cinema’s biggest blockbusters. Oscar and BAFTA award-winning Tim Webber will take centre stage to unveil the ingenious creative thinking and problem-solving techniques behind Hollywood’s most ambitious ideas. Tim’s credits include epics like Avatar, Harry Potter and The Dark Knight and cinematic sensation Gravity. His innovative solutions have been widely recognised as game-changers. Collaborating with Gravity writer/director Alfonso Cuarón to translate his story from script to screen has raised the bar in VFX and opened new possibilities that inspire the industry to tell new stories. Don’t miss this fascinating presentation and be inspired to make brands think bigger.

With the growth of multiple screens, the 30” and 60” are increasingly only part of a brand’s video arsenal. Vine has popularised the microvideo format. At the other end of the scale, the most popular ads on YouTube average two minutes and one in eight are over five minutes. While there is general acceptance that you don’t just modify your TV content for digital use, there’s less consensus on what you do. This session showcases research on the most viewed YouTube ads that unlock the elements of success in film longer than 60 seconds. It shows that while more time can allow for stronger engagement, it can also be a liability, particularly if the brand’s role disappoints the viewer. At the other end of the scale, the session shows, for the first time, research on microvideo that demonstrates how the format can best be used to ensure sharing but also to benefit the brand.

Vegas is a Disneyland for adults. Sin City – a uniquely magnetic, insane neon metropolis occupying just 6.5km in the Nevada desert – generates $7 billion dollars annually, the same GDP as Zimbabwe. But for all its Cirque De Soleil, Celine Dion, showgirls and slots, it has become an unrecognised, untapped epicentre of creativity and marketing excellence. Brave shines a sequin-clad light on what brands can learn from the ‘Big 4’: the casino groups that converge experience, innovation, divine data and magic – to compete and extract just enough dollars to keep a smile on the face of the 40 million annual visitors who remain eager to return. How can the industry apply this sophisticated thinking outside the Vegas bubble? And, as the city of sin lures with its own brand of glitz, glamour and celebrity, Brave’s own show boasts global megastar magician Dynamo, whose uniquely mesmerising illusions will give the Vegas-inspired talk a spectacularly dramatic resonance.

Converging technologies, the increasing speed of innovation and the expectance of social media have prompted a ‘now’ society and heightened the accepted pace of change. While the innovation world sits in the driving seat of inspiration and operates at real-time speed, the marketing world traditionally operates in a more protracted manner. Today, we reach the intersection of both worlds. The seminar explains how the marketing industry can use the models and frameworks from the innovation sector to implement fast prototyping, testing and scaling. This is aimed at marketers who want to learn fast, fail fast and win in an increasingly real-time industry. MIT Media Lab’s Andy Lippman showcases key practises that brands need to change in their businesses and share the vision he’s building for the future of media.

Sherlock: The Network broke new ground in storytelling when it was released earlier this year. A chart-topping app that combines broadcast-quality video, story and gameplay, it has been both a commercial and critical success. Starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman and expanding the story-world of the TV series, Sherlock: The Network shows that a stand-alone interactive product can reap tangible rewards in its own right. Rather than just putting TV on another screen, interactive storytellers need to extend the story-world as a consistent but different experience on digital devices. Critical to creating companion apps/sites/destinations is maintaining the integrity of the story-world while delivering appropriate interactive experiences that work for the audience. Choosing the story lines, the games, the level of interactivity and the rewards for the audience are key to planning this; managing hackers, controlling IP and being responsive to a real-time audience are also part of delivering on the promise.This session will look at the design and development of Sherlock: The Network, and how it was received by an incredibly demanding audience.

We live in an ‘always-on’ connected world, driven by constantly evolving technologies. With rapid technological progress, where change is the only constant, the way we ‘tell’ stories – historically using words and images – must change, too. At the intersection of technology and story lies a new opportunity for businesses to re-imagine the way we communicate with consumers – to build worlds, not ads. Technology not only acts as the equipment to build these worlds, but now forms a part of the narrative itself. SapientNitro brings creative disruptor and recent Oscar recipient Spike Jonze (Best Original Screenplay for Her) to explore our relationship with technology today, how it is evolving, and what this means for humanity. The seminar will present a vision for the next generation of successful brands – brands who will transform from telling stories with words and images to create worlds in which consumers can immerse themselves. This technological tapestry of rich experiences is only the beginning, as the disruptors continue to push the boundaries of what is possible.

Andrew Deitchman will be joined onstage by Yaniv (Nev) Schulman – creator and star of the 2010 documentary Catfish and its subsequent show on MTV, which has become a global phenomenon among the millennial set and is currently #1 on the network. Andrew and Nev will explore truth and lies on the social web created by brands and people and its effect on their audience. With the growing number of digital mediums for brands to speak with/at potential consumers, the appetite for authenticity and lack of BS is at an all-time high, particularly among the elusive millennials. But what is the checks and balances system monitoring the messages that get put out there on both ends? Who is ‘regulating’ it or does it even matter? As Catfish continually points out, social media is a landscape prime for falsification by users. Brands are just as guilty of this as well. Are we ultimately doomed when we speak and sell to one another and exist on this ‘fake’ medium? Is it possible to find a way everyone can communicate and benefit in an honest way?

With the potential to reach and excite millions of people, why are advertisers today abandoning any semblance of creativity and opting for predictable, uninteresting and intrusive banner ads? Frustration is high among brands and fatigue even higher among consumers as mobile has fast become a modern wasteland for advertising. In this seminar, executives from Kiip and IPG will discuss the results of a comprehensive IPG Media Lab study with the potential to reverse the tide in the mobile advertising industry. Measuring physiological responses among participants by using facial coding and biometric data, the study scientifically reveals how serendipitous, rewards-based advertising is delivering happiness by generating emotion and excitement amongst consumers while creating stronger KPI returns for brands. Attendees will discover how an emotion-based approach leads to effective engagement and learn which types of ads consumers view most favorably. By not settling for the status quo and injecting creativity into their mobile strategy, marketers can finally activate the tremendous potential housed within the most personal devices we’ve ever owned.

In 1997, Richard Edelman was entrusted with the sole global leadership of Edelman by his greatest role model and mentor, his dad. A company that now has a 62 year heritage of client service, and is the world’s largest independent PR agency. There is a special responsibility for anyone leading a family company; technology changes, the market changes, competitor sets and industry as well, but values do not. For Richard – family, community, decency, honesty, loyalty and hard work will always remain the most important values that are the essential force for business to succeed. He believes that business must show up differently, with an entrepreneurial spirit and integrity. From account executive to president and global CEO, Richard has accumulated a number of leadership lessons: “you cannot do the CEO job from behind the desk,” and in this master class he will discuss the significance of leading from the front. As his dad taught him, “everyone is an account executive” - strategy must reflect reality and intelligence can only be gathered from experience. He will talk about the importance of remaining humble, having a sense of humour, admitting when you are wrong and having the same ambition and hunger at 60 as he had in his 20s.

The zeitgeist; viral; plain old ‘cool’. Call it what you like but, for brands, finding a way to connect with consumers around global ‘moments’ means global success. However, it has always been unpredictable – until now. Now we are beginning to plan zeitgeist; to scale viral and to invest in driving ‘cool’. Hear how adaptive brands can identify the moment, create the content, optimise their efforts and invest to drive success in a modern digital eco-system of continuing feedback loops fed by data – all the while remaining within a heartbeat of the cultural zeitgeist. What are the impacts for the creative department in this brave new world? And how does it change our view of ‘creative’?

Photography has the power to undo your assumptions and alter your perspective; to inspire, shock, and yes, change the world. National Geographic is renowned for its photography and now, with 4.8 million Instagram followers (the #1 brand on the platform), the power of photography extends across more and more screens. Still, even in a world saturated with content, a strong, single image has enormous impact. To wit, National Geographic’s recent “The Price of Precious” photography series almost single-handedly compelled Intel to change its policies this January and become the first company to ban conflict minerals. In #change: The Power of Photography, National Geographic will explore the nature of creativity and power of visual storytelling to transform hearts and minds. Our leading photojournalists from around the world will take you behind the scenes to discuss their work, their creative process, and the nature of storytelling under risky conditions.

Understanding how we perceive others and the world is key to effective communication and building genuine lasting connections. For brands, a deep appreciation of how the brain makes sense of itself, others and the space in-between is central to establishing relationships and engaging with their audiences. In recent years, neuroscience has generated remarkable new insights into human perception and behaviour, and these findings are starting to impact the fields of design, media and beyond. At the same time, technology and art are increasingly overlapping to create new kinds of spatial and emotional experiences. Through the voices of a maverick neuroscientist and an experimental artist, these intersections will be at the centre of the special TED@Cannes session, brought to the stage by TED and SMG. Featuring Beau Lotto, Neuroscientist and Imogen Heap, Recording Artist. Hosted by Laura Desmond, CEO, Starcom MediaVest Group and Bruno Giussani, European Director, TED.

The video and advertising industries are experiencing unprecedented growth and innovation. Screens are getting smaller, and the average person now carries multiple devices. Content consumption growth is exponential and is becoming localised, personal and real-time. All of this brings about a vast amount of opportunity for brands, marketers and advertisers – but today’s fragmented ecosystem also brings hugely complex challenges. How do you navigate this landscape and smoothly transition from being an interruption to being a positive and native experience that adds value? Videos tell creative stories and deliver awareness. Buttons put dollars into shopping carts. Big data brings real time optimisation and personalisation. Let’s discuss how we can simply merge all of these layers into a unified experience, and let the technology do its job as an enabler that allows creative people to get back to doing what they do best. Join us for an exploration on the current hot trends within interactive video and how to prepare for the future.

Planning is under siege as channels are more fragmented. Clients are more demanding in a world where consumer demand is scarce. Planning for ideas, for creativity and planning for insight is relevant but within a traditional agency or network is lost and its real currency is undervalued. Planning, if redefined, can help clients save their brands and help agencies win clients. But it needs an overhaul, to survive. MCCP, the planning agency founded by Kay McCarthy, can prove that planning can be reinvented to both save brands and be a profitable, credible force and a truly creative business. Winning clients such as Heineken, Kepak, Tourism Ireland, Smurfit Kappa in markets from Mexico to China, MCCP brings a new force in planning to work with agencies and clients, and make planning a creative process that generates business ideas which result in even better creative and impactful results.

The industry challenge: Delivering impactful advertising across social networks requires a unique approach, and very little has been published about effective strategies that can feed back into broader media decisions. How impactful is sequencing creatives into a story versus exposing consumers to the overall message? Even if advertisers have the best creative, how can they leverage the unique characteristics of social media to drive business objectives?

The insight: During this exclusive presentation, we will reveal for the first time globally the results of an Adaptly research study to help advertisers continuously improve their creative diagnostics, optimal frequency and sequencing within Facebook. We will explore the topic of optimal frequency while in flight – a common question of every media buyer. This study will also experimentally demonstrate the value of rotating creatives versus sequencing creatives, and will reveal best practices for driving core business objectives through social media advertising.

Consumers and clients today expect a seamless experience through all touchpoints, and even the most creative advertising will not be able to deliver the desired objectives if the rest of the organisation and its supporting network are not aligned. Success in today’s rapidly evolving business environment requires that every function in the organisation must challenge the conventional way of doing things, not just the ‘creatives’. This session will provide guidelines for how to challenge our mental models of creativity and ignite the creativity of ALL functions and individuals in the organisation, turning them into change agents.

With small group assignments we will identify and challenge the most stubborn and persistent mental models of creativity. We will design experiments that will overcome our aversion to risk by delivering understanding about what works and what doesn’t. And we will practice applying the WFoA RAVES standard of effective advertising through all touchpoints. By the end of the session, participants will have a set of tools for taking on risks and reimagining what’s possible.

The answer used to be simple. It looked like a TV spot, a print ad or a promotion. The role for insight was also simple. To ensure that the answer worked. But for modern participation brands the answer could be anything. It might resemble a shift in culture, a new service or a product innovation. And if you’re going to hack into a consumer’s life and offer a meaningful solution, you need to be clear about where the gaps are.So how do you find the gaps? How can data be used to find the next white space opportunity when our lives are already overloaded with brands? The new wave of data insights, from the quantified self to predictive analytics, shouldn’t simply help refine creative solutions. They should be used to identify the start-points that enable true creative leaps. In this session Ben Essen and Chris Baylis explain why, in an age where the answer could be anything, it’s the questions you ask that are what’s important.

This session is followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from MCCP and iris Worldwide.

The ideas and emotions that images convey really matter to people, especially given the fact that imagery has become the language of our time. As Co-founder and CEO of Getty Images, I have witnessed the evolution of the creation, distribution and use of content across all areas of media and advertising, and I’ve seen firsthand what a photo can do to inspire action and positive change. In this talk, I will describe my journey of building Getty Images and falling in love with pictures, share some photos which have shaped my life, and explain why we are so moved by what we see.

You know that your TV ad spend isn’t as effective as it was, and that just putting your TV spot on YouTube and hoping it will go ‘viral’ doesn’t cut it either, but what can you do to make sure your marketing spend is effective, engaging and impactful? You know you need more content, better content, different content and to change your standard distribution strategy. You can no longer rely on consumers seeking you out, you have to find them and give them what they want. Three intrepid and successful pioneers in online content creation and distribution delve into how to create a successful creative content distribution model, the importance of social influence, what role celebrity endorsement and co-creation can play in amplification, and why curation can be just as important as creativity. Leaving you better armed to ask the right questions when you plan and execute your next campaign.

Branded content is, when you get it right, one of the most powerful advertising techniques in the world. Get it wrong, and you’ve got an expensive failure on your hands. That X-factor ingredient that elevates branded content into an advertising art-form is engagement. This workshop will teach you about the 7 ‘E’s of Engagement. You will learn how to keep it real, how to respond to friend (and foe!) and, more importantly, how to re-think the creative brief. Since the days before the original Mad Men, we’ve been chasing those magic 30 seconds of engagement, but this is the workshop where everything changes. Discover how you can achieve 30 minutes, or even 3 hours, of audience engagement with the right approach to branded content. Working to a live brief for a NFP organisation, you will be tutored by Patrick Collister, editor of Directory magazine and archive and Creative Director of The Zoo at Google NACE. It will be exhilarating, exhausting but enlightening - and even entertaining.

“When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro” - Hunter S Thompson.Great strategies have often seemed eccentric. In the Burmese Campaign of World War II, General Slim started all his assaults with an insistence that all Allied troops be issued with a pair of fresh socks, to be put on just before the attack. The greatest investor in modern history, Warren Buffett, deliberately does the opposite to the rest of the market. Has herd mentality destroyed the possibility for eccentric strategy in large corporates? Is it only start-ups keeping Weird Strategy alive? Sense Worldwide thinks not, and would like to celebrate the weirdness in the strategies of some of the most valuable companies on earth. Learn why consumers are buying weird; where to look for weird strategies; how to sell a weird strategy (dress like an accountant); the difference between weird and stupid; and how to measure the unmeasurable. Sense Worldwide will also share their experiences in implementing weird strategies for clients like Nike, PepsiCo, Samsung and Converse.

Digital technology has only recently advanced to the point of widespread consumer adoption, becoming as universal as the printed word in just a matter of decades. As a result, we have entered an age in which technological progress and cultural evolution are inextricably linked. The digital platforms we engage with are not chosen on merit alone, but also on the rate of cultural adoption. How then can marketers learn to decipher cultural cues – identifying where in the digital landscape their target consumers can be found, and where those consumers are going next? Marketing executive Steve Stoute and venture capitalist Ben Horowitz join forces for a wide-ranging discussion of consumer adoption and the complex network of value systems that drive it. Together, using insights from their professional careers as well as their respective books (Stoute’s The Tanning of America and Horowitz’s The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers), they offer best practices into the art of reading the cultural landscape.

Why did Nike, Dove and Pepsi win Cannes Lions so convincingly in 2012/2013? What was different about their consumer insights, brand purpose and consumer engagement programs that led to competitive success? And how did the central and local marketers inside these global companies work differently with one another, as well as with their agency partners to book such impressive gains? Marc de Swaan Aarons presents an analysis and summary of interviews with Nike and Dove Lion-winners of recent years and leverages the findings of both the Marketing2020 and Agency2020 programs to help brand and agency leaders better understand what it takes to win in global marketing. Brad Jakeman gives an update on PepsiCo’s ongoing marketing transformation and sets out how Pepsi is working differently internally as well as with its creative partners to drive winning marketing programs. In a closing discussion, Marc and Brad will discuss key personal lessons that every marketer and agency leaders can apply for growth.

Great creative is about making connections. Today, advances in neuroscience have revealed that our brains connect to creative in a matter of milliseconds, influencing behaviour before we even realise it. By applying neuroscience to marketing, we can now capture and decode these critical moments. See for yourself during a live demo of Nielsen’s new Fourier One headset, and watch real-time brain response in action. Dr. Michael Smith and Patty Goldman will then reveal the role of consumer neuroscience in driving killer creative for the Ad Council, where the bottom line is about creating connections that effect positive social change.

Before there was MTV or the world’s first mobile phone, there was Calvin Klein. The brand’s controversial 1981 TV ad starring Brooke Shields simultaneously received rave reviews and outraged critics. It catapulted fashion advertising into the mainstream, elevated the status and accessibility of fashion, and marked the Calvin Klein brand as a marketing icon. Today, Calvin Klein maintains the ability to provoke conversation and create brand advocates across every medium. Melisa Goldie shares the four truths that, over time, have continued to guide and solidify the creative evolution of one of the world’s most powerful brands. She also reveals what a nearly naked man in Times Square taught her about consumer engagement.

“If you can dream it you can do it” said Walt Disney. Today, design plays a key role at all levels of a company to create, inspire and deliver transformational visions. From Pepsi to Coca Cola, Tumblr to AirBnB, and Burberry to NYC design, visions have transformed the brands, experiences and lives of millions over the last five years. The most effective of these create a clear link to a simple consumer or user truth derived from data and insight work. Rufus Leonard presents its approach to generating simple, inspiring visions with the power to align organisations acting as a beacon for development and transformation at every level. Through examples of its work and the work of others, Rufus Leonard shows that there is a simple recipe for success in drawing a clear, powerful line from insight to a vision for the future and an expression of that vision. It sets up key principles for success such as ambition, relevance, and reduction to ensure that the vision is both simple enough to adopt and effective enough to succeed.

Online video creators such as KassemG and PewdiePie are the biggest stars that many in the advertising industry have never heard of. Their huge global ‘millennial’ following comes from the popularity of their irreverent take on popular culture. But these creators don’t see online as a stepping-stone to TV, it’s their natural home, enabling them to interact with their fans. Brands have an opportunity to engage these huge fanbases – helping to create content and becoming part of the entertainment – but only if they behave in an ‘authentic’ way. In this seminar, KassemG gives his irreverent take on the advertising industry, which we will film for his YouTube channel. Maker Studios and Newcast – ZenithOptimedia’s global branded content network – explain how marketers can embrace the exciting world of online video.

This unique workshop shows that the creative communication skills used in extreme situations can assist all professional communicators. It includes presentations, exercises and coaching by experienced professionals who have between them 60 years’ experience of dealing with extreme life threatening situations, including communicating with ‘terrorists’. The presentations will outline a framework of how to be creative in preparing, engaging and developing relationships with challenging people in challenging situations, and each will be followed by an exercise to practice the skills. Engage – First impressions why do they count, and what can you do to improve the impression you give. Develop relationships – Making sense of a person’s viewpoint through listening skills and the ability to assess what is important to the person.On conclusion participants should understand how to be prepared for undertaking their role in any form of communication. This can range from ‘selling’ an idea and improving pitching technique, to understanding how different communication methods can impact professional relationships.

What do a new generation of brand owners have in common with art movements like the Romantics, the Beats and Punk? They are all market-creating storytellers who want to flood the world with new ideas; they tap into the aspirations of new cultural groups, harness new media behaviours and rally their followers behind radical manifestos. A manifesto wraps strategy and plans up in a romantic cause. It captures the imagination of customers, partners and staff. It provides everyone with something to believe in. The world is changing. The unstoppable march of the global corporation ground to a halt after the Credit Crunch. Big business was demonised. The new brand owners reflect new values and beliefs. This session is based on original interviews with people behind brands like Vice, Brew Dog, Hiut Denim and blu. They are just a few of the manifesto brands and The Manifesto Project is charting this new movement.

Data-driven media buying has big potential – especially for advertisers hoping to mine consumer preferences to reach one-to-one, real-time marketing nirvana. But big data advertising methods also create big headaches, especially for brands and agencies looking to create brand impact through creative campaigns. So-called programmatic ad-buying technologies have proven useful for conversion lift in direct response advertising, but can you “automate” creativity and branding? As programmatic platforms automatically sift through millions of potential ad placements out of tens of billions of opportunities every day, media buyers are still struggling to understand which ad impressions will generate the highest returns – and most measurable brand engagement – at any given second. Hear how the most sophisticated advertisers, including BMW, Birds Eye, Lufthansa, and Choice Hotels are using artificial intelligence to automate and optimise web, mobile, and social campaigns at scale. Find out how agencies are using programmatic platforms to complete TV buys that complement digital buys to drive optimal brand recall. Debate how big data will impact the ad industry, and whether there will still be a place for human creativity in a machine-driven world.

123w from Vancouver was asked to submit its company story because of its uniqueness. It won a Lion last year right after opening the 123w.ca website. 123w started out of a garage, purposely positioning itself completely differently than the competitors in Canada. The focus was low overhead and high talent. The company works like the movie business where there is a core group and the best talent is brought in for each project. It’s working. 123w expanded and are creating world-class work in a working linen factory that looks like the meth lab off of Breaking Bad. Already up to 14 clients, including 7-Eleven and Mercedes-Benz, in less than a year 123w has won a Cannes Lion, many other awards and are about to launch a brewpub.

Brands attempt to thrive on specific platforms where images rule, often finding that traditional approaches fall short. How do they develop efficiencies to keep these issues at bay? This workshop offers cheats, tips and tricks for better visual storytelling within image based social platforms and beyond-without excessive overhead.

Practical• “Use what you have”, a review of brands repurposing owned assets

such as archival images to create new formats more disposed to social pass-along, like gifs, multiframe images, and image sets.

• Attendees identify five sources from their own asset libraries that would be ideal in a new format, using their fellow (out-of-category) marketers’ fresh eyes as a trusted, but honest sounding board.

• “Ask and you shall receive” kicks off with inspiration from brands building their capacity for visual storytelling in creative ways. Varied tactics such as submission blogs, creative aggregators like poptent, or commissioning content from media partners all provide inspiration for the next group exercise...

It’s no secret that our industry is in a constant battle for people’s attention. We’ve long discovered that brands are no longer competing with each other, but with anyone who has the means to create content. As more and more people get in the content game, understanding what makes people tick becomes overwhelmingly more important. In his lecture, Mark Tutssel will share the four principles of ‘Borderless Creativity’ and their critical role in creating game-changing, globally celebrated work.

There is one thing that’s clear to everyone: creativity is the key to good campaigns. Jung von Matt also uses creativity to enter people’s heads with outstanding ideas. Coming up with an idea is one side of the story. Protecting it is the other. It’s a hard challenge for a creative. Travelling on a journey packed with haters, technical problems, small budgets and disbelievers, the creative has to stick to one’s ‘creativity’ to bring the idea to life. Looking behind the curtains, take a peek at how Jung von Matt is protecting its creativity.

Wonder why the topics of religion and marketing often become part of the same conversation whenever highly successful brands or best communication practices become part of it? And why comparing Jesus Christ to a bottle of Coke or a can of Marmite may not be so much of a heresy, after all?The session will bring to life the very origins of iconic marketing and demonstrate how iconic brands go beyond marketing culture, or following culture, to shaping culture.With a variety of examples ranging from marketing to art, from design to architecture, participants will explore the symbols, words and rituals that make iconic brands relevant not only within their own category, but humanly relevant. After being exposed to the six key principles behind the creation of successful iconic brands, the attendees will be divided into two groups and given a chance to iconise and evangelise two of the most recognisable ‘brands’ on La Croisette – institutions that are a familiar part of their Cannes Lions experience.

Courtney Love is bringing her own brand of rock to Cannes for the first time ever, in what promises to be an intimate, raw and provocative talk. A true creative force, Courtney refused to let her troubled early life, drug addiction and Kurt Cobain’s suicide define her. Instead she became a three-time Grammy nominated, multi-platinum selling rock star with her band Hole, and a Golden Globe nominated actress. How does she keep overcoming adversity and continuously reinvent herself? When the words and music won’t come, how does she get the creativity flowing? Behind closed doors, how does she deal with failure? What does she have nightmares about? Come find out what drives the confrontational and unmistakable talents of this rock icon.

Television, film, music and art are flowing around the world in new and surprising cross-border directions. What are the new dynamics of cultural influence today? How and why do some story ideas spread around the world like wildfire, whereas others simply get lost in translation? And what does this all mean for global brands? Modern television reflects this new dynamic. With the rise of digital platforms like Netflix and DramaFever, the world’s largest online video site for distributing internationally televised content, local programs are finding a growing global audience. Downton Abbey and Doctor Who’s popularity is massive, encompassing more than 200 countries. Korean romances have blossomed while The Walking Dead has launched a worldwide zombie invasion.

3D printing and accessible electronics have created a new player: the Maker. After years of alienation of mass production, we face the emergence of people that make innovative stuff with readily available means: from the virtual world of software to the physical world of objects, via DIY technological solutions. The FabLabs are spaces that propose new paradigms to the industry. Collaborative work, open knowledge, fluid communities, resourceful environments, and a lot of fun. What makes FabLabs so successful that could be applied to our creative process? Supported by examples from inventors, designers and artists, the possibilities of combining sensors, led lights, step motors, mobile apps and microcontrollers will be discussed, challenging the groups to hack and create a smart and innovative display for a retail store. Via a brainstorm process, attendees will share their findings with sketches, drawings and diagrams. With a basic introduction to electronics and to the Arduino open-source platform, the workshop aims to demonstrate the simplicity of its use, motivating the curious and eager creative to join the so-called 3rd Industrial Revolution.

This talk will question where and how artistic endeavour and creativity should operate in a world that is changing faster than ever before. Creativity is still being used to polish the surface of underlying social and economic structures. But as these structures have been found wanting – look to the 2008 crash, environmental collapse, rising social inequality and so on – the question needs to be asked as to whether creativity needs to be turned from gilding rotten apples to reinventing social structures anew. And then to ask where this leaves the creative industries. In our restless futures, art and design, as ways of thinking and doing, will become central to finding new ways of operating.

In Brazil, there are twice as many homes with a television than basic sanitation. The cosmetics market is almost 20 times larger than the books industry and there are 684 professional football clubs to 197 medical schools. The richest 10% owns more than 40% of national income, making the country the 4th least equal in Latin America. The country has already been called Belindia (Belgium and India) but despite the hailed rise of the middle class in recent years, any stumble in the country’s economic policies and tens of millions of Brazilians will stop buying clothes, travel, cars and computers and return to the daily struggle for survival. There is a Brazil that is only interested in inflating the country’s vainglorious statistics. But it is hidden from institutional radars, forgotten by brands and businesses and misunderstood by the advertising industry.A Brazil that isn’t on Google. At least, it wasn’t…

JWT, AfroReggae and Google have launched ‘Tá no mapa’, the first initiative to digitally map Brazilian favelas, created and coordinated by the communities themselves. Thanks to ‘Tá no mapa’ and AfroReggae’s social technology, millions of Brazilians are coming out of anonymity, awaking to formality, working and forming part of a new, more just and sustainable economy. Brands and agencies need to understand this new long tail, so long shunned in favour of tried and tested formulas and old aspirational logics.

Known for its amazing creativity across all forms of entertainment and its dominance in the social media space, Brazil is about to implement a plan to become a global hub for the creation of TV formats. Recent changes to the law in Brazil have created an enormous demand for content on the TV networks. Not only is this an opportunity to reach an emerging market with enormous potential, but also to develop quality content with universal stories that, from the start, are designed to roll out across multiple platforms and around the globe. The Alchemists, a franchise content company with offices in Rio de Janeiro, Los Angeles and London, discuss how global brands should be taking advantage of this next wave of content innovation.

All your hard work creating that perfect ad? The team pulling late nights and all that coffee? It’s all gone to waste. No one saw it. ComScore found nearly half of all online ads are not viewed by human beings, instead sitting lost below the fold of a web page or behind another open browser tab. It’s time to stand up for the advertisers, it’s time for media buys that matter. In December 2013 Google said it would only charge for ads viewed. During 2013 a group of technology companies including TubeMogul, Nielsen and Blinx pioneered the use of open source software that reveals which videos were actually viewed by human eyes, with shocking results. In the past year, brands and agencies around the world have switched onto the idea that if they’re going to pay a premium for creative, it’s a good idea to know how often their ads met human eyes or if they never had the chance. TubeMogul kicks off the controversial discussion with it’s most recent global research findings.

Last year the BrightRoll platform handled 1.5 trillion programmatic video ad transactions, and this year that figure has already been surpassed. With this speed of growth and rising demand for programmatic video in Europe, the company unveiled its Amsterdam-based data centre in April, connecting the BrightRoll platform to 80% of the European population within 50 milliseconds, increasing performance for buyers and sellers of digital video. Furthermore, while other ad tech companies are able to access inventory on the BrightRoll platform, BrightRoll remains the central unified source of that inventory. Why does this matter? Because the more layers there are between the advertiser and the source, the more difficult it is to clearly see and understand consumer behaviour. With the focus currently on the value chain in programmatic, BrightRoll delivers ROI by enabling brand owners to be positioned at the Point of Most Knowledge with the ability to simply track exactly how campaigns are performing.

Aversion to conflict is often at the root of mediocre work. And it cuts across every level from the new grad to the C-level: we all struggle with saying ‘no’ when “It’s an emergency!”/ “But if we don’t do it we’ll lose the account!” In a business that puts a premium on “yes”, the truth is “no” used wisely is the hallmark of a creative leader. This workshop teaches when and how to say “no” to assure the end goal – great work – won’t be sabotaged by your “yes” to short term fixes. Using group exercises, we’ll reframe conflict as a positive feature of the journey to the most creative solutions, and deliver strategies for effective dialogue when the pressure’s on to do the wrong thing. Teams of five will be given tools and insights to help one person in the group who’s struggling with a real problem that appears to call for a “no”. The team will help identify whether “yes” or “no” is the right response to the problem, and ideas for a better solution than the “yes” that’s the wrong answer. This will illustrate the power of collaboration with others to get to the best response in a high stakes situation, the benefit of not over-thinking, reframe “no” as a positive response that shows leadership, and provide a system to use every time there’s a conflict that’s hard to resolve.

This workshop is repeated at 15:30.

Across the country, 139 design agencies competed to design the Olympics and Paralympics identities. It was the dream project for every creative professional in Brazil; taking on the world’s most complex visual identity and coming up with brands that represented the marriage of the spirit of Olympics and Paralympics with the spirit of Rio. This is the story Tatil Designing Ideas will tell; the stories behind the singular creative process which created two brands that will touch six billion people this summer. It’s the tale of the first three-dimensional brand identity in the history of the Games; a sculptural idea that has become part of an architecturally beautiful city and, in doing so, integrated with local residents’ daily lives. It’s the story of the first Paralympic multi-sensory brand; an idea that talks to the whole community, allowing them to fully experience and feel the brand. It’s a new way to think about how graphic symbols can be more inclusive.

The previously closed world of high fashion has had some of its mystique stripped away thanks to the digital revolution. An industry that used to enjoy an austere, print-based existence has been democratised online. Fashion bloggers like Tavi Gevinson and Susie ‘Style Bubble’ Lau have allowed the masses behind the curtain and now sit alongside Vogue editors and celebrities in the front row of key shows.

Retailers like Net-A-Porter have made buying couture (and returning it) as easy as checking email. In response to this opportunity to find new audiences online, fashion houses have acquired new skills alongside the high-end production craft for which they are legendary. Unsurprisingly, some of these have been in the world of digital, like moving images that click through to buying opportunities.

But French retailer The Kooples, with its short film Today, Tomorrow and its recently-launched content programme TK Foundry, is also bringing in more traditional narrative and film-making skills to create culturally relevant online content that reaches audiences both inside and outside the fashion world.

This session is followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from the IAB and Pulse Films.

Unilever explores how the dramatic changes in its industry are creating more chances to connect with consumers than ever before. However, amidst these opportunities reigns chaos: unmanageable amounts of data, a wild mobile ecosystem, lack of understanding of sustainability, expanding genres of agencies, content created and distributed in multiple forms and confusing jargon in ad exchanges and technology. But it’s this very chaos that makes this a great time to be in marketing. Unilever has an unprecedented opportunity to do a lot more with a lot less. Developing new business models which reflect the transformation of our industry will drive engagement and behaviour change on a whole new scale. As leaders of the industry gather at Cannes Lions, it is not only a privilege but a responsibility to make sure we all act on these challenges with higher levels of innovation and creativity than ever before.

Women working in technology are paid less than men, work mainly with men, and are less likely to get promoted when compared to men. So it’s no surprise that in the UK just 17% of tech positions are held by women. These figures would suggest that we are on the brink of a female digital dystopia. But is the problem really that bad? And does it matter? If it does, what can be done to empower women to claim their digital vote?

Mondelez International launched Mobile Futures Brazil, a program that attracted more than 75 Brazilian mobile start-ups to apply for a chance to work on one of its top brands (Bis, Club Social, Hall, Tang and Trident). Each of the five finalists worked side-by-side with the brand teams to develop ideas that fueled growth for both. This new corporate structure teaches brand managers how to activate a technology-driven idea in real time and scale it globally. Now already up and running in Australia, Brazil and the US, the company is taking the program to China this year. Mondelez International brand teams have embraced this new practice as a way to become more innovative and ‘intrapreneurial’. This session will explore how to build a bridge between brands and start-ups, how brands can adopt a start-up culture (such as failing fast, learning to pivot, and taking risks), and explore the benefits of partnering with venture capitalists, incubators and accelerators. It will also showcase how some of the winning ideas came to life.

A client’s reputation in the global agency community directly impacts on their ability to get the best talent working on their business. That was the unequivocal finding when The Talent Business surveyed over 700 agency leaders around the world. So if clients with the best reputation attract the best talent, what can you do about it? Gary Stolkin draws on this bespoke research and his experience of putting together agency leadership teams and running international pitches to provide a strategy for creating a talent magnet brand.Also in attendance, Daryl Fielding will share her perspective.

This practical and interactive session will ask delegates to work on a client case study to devise a talent magnet strategy for attracting and inspiring the best talent. It will enable participants from both client and agency organisations to gain a mutual understanding of how they can work together, and be better equipped to attract the best talent.

We are living in a market with 2MM+ different apps. Billions of downloads, meaning billions of positive personal experiences every year. A significant part of these individual experiences are based on ‘niche apps’, which are not of general interest but that could still attract a big user basis. Increasingly, the relationship between brands and consumers will be made through these applications (it will be the brand amplification age). This new scenario comes along with major challenges and also opportunities to brands:• How (and maybe why) to build up a relevant application to compete

with those millions of already existing apps and games?• If consumers are selecting which applications they download to their

phones, creating their ‘personal ecosystem’, is it possible for a brand to be part of this new digital world?

• On the other hand, do brands have the opportunity to occupy or partner with many apps and games to reach those users and to be part of their positive daily experiences?

We believe that brands are favorably positioned to be an important part of the app stores ecosystem and we’ll provide examples of how they should insert themselves based on this perspective, bringing creative cases of Brazilian campaigns.

Joe Pytka has spent years shooting thousands of spots and films. He helped Pepsi win the Cola Wars., helped Apple become a business computer, put Nike together with the phrase “Just Do It,” helped turn IBM around when everybody thought they were finished and put life back in “We bring good things to life” for GE. He’s shot Woody Allen, Faye Dunaway, Michael Jackson, The Beatles, Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny, John Lennon, Bo Jackson, Cindy Crawford, Marlon Brando, eskimos in Alaska and the Red Army in Red Square. He directed more Super Bowl spots than any other director in history and is a member of the Clio Hall of Fame, the One Show Hall of Fame, the American Advertising Federation Hall of Fame and the New York Art Director’s Hall of Fame, and the Director’s Guild of America gave him its special Honors Award.

Technology has changed forever the way people experience brands and it is very easy to buy into the amazing new possibilities that technology can offer. We do this, however, at the risk of using technology for technology’s sake – forgetting that it is a great creative idea, and not great technology, that should be at the heart of every campaign. In fact, the more pervasive technology becomes, the more invisible it should be – adding value without disruption and enabling that ‘great idea’ to connect people with the brand.

This Forum will examine the brand experience approach. How putting the user experience first should be applied on a grand scale, both online and off. It will examine the invisible technology trends that can help us move beyond the “like” and the click-thru, engaging people and driving them to take action and be advocates for the long-term. And how using the ‘five brand experience principles’ can help us leverage invisible technology to realise our creative vision.

Should brands become the new patrons of the arts? Has there been a shift in perception from artists to embrace brands as facilitators, sponsors and enablers of the creative industries? In a world where content is so freely distributed and millennials don’t expect to pay for it, how can an aspiring artist, designer, musician, photographer or filmmaker hope to make a living? A world without creativity would be impossible to imagine, so could brands fund the free distribution of creative content to the consumer in a way that would benefit artists through sponsorship and brands from the very content that inspires sharing and participation? And if so, does this new model also provide a new native advertising vehicle where brands are woven into content, word-of-mouth, storytelling and social sharing that positions them positively as empowering creativity?

This session is followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from Jack Morton and Talenthouse.

Creativity is a cornerstone of the Brazilian outlook. The mix of races and cultures has imbued the Brazilian people with a unique character: optimistic, inventive and happy. The country has come a long way from the days when Brazil was just an exotic holiday destination in the jungles of South America, and it has now involved into a market to be reckoned with on the global stage. As a result, Brazil delivers exciting profit numbers for the multinational businesses that trade there. In this environment of such uncommon prosperity and potential, a new creative imperative has emerged. This isn’t just about the creation of big ideas, but also how to sell them. This new Brazilian approach to creativity could be what the world has been waiting for…

The impact of technology is continuously accelerating and reaching ever-expanding aspects of humanity. However, what we are witnessing is in fact just the beginning. In the future, technology will bring new abilities to humans, from communication, productivity to learning. This is the world of the augmented human. A world where technology augments our ability to perceive, interact, and create, not just in the info-sphere, but in physicality. Dentsu looks at how a physical activity like sports will evolve in the era of the augmented human. From the use of motion-sensing to enhance the athletic training experience, to the reenactment of the emotional experience of witnessing a new world record, we will showcase new experiences in both participatory and spectatorship sport. Further, the agency has invited Junichi Rekimoto, Deputy Director of the Sony Computer Science Lab, to talk about his vision of the augmented human and share how his experimental user experience designs have expanded to sports and conduct live demos with athletes.

Brazil is a large country, so it is hard to appreciate its spirit just by the things that are seen in television. This is a country with more than 20 states and which features beaches, big cities, small villages, rainforest jungle and large scale industry and agriculture. It is a melting pot of global influences and immigrant ideas: European, Asian, Indigenous and African. Brazilian culture is based on a mixture, a mash-up, an integration of origins. The most visible expressions of Brazilian are carnival, football and music. To understand how Brazilian spirit reflects in the creative work of advertising, nothing is better than to visit the country and experience the culture that is inspiring the world at the moment. In this session, DDB Brazil invited members from different continents in the DDB Network to get to know Brazil. This is the story of their discoveries and creative adventures.

Today’s theme: Industry Spotlight – Music day

In an industry as creative as the music business, the role of creativity is complex, exciting, frustrating and loaded with promise. From ad jingles to inspired pop music pairings to the latest in audio branding, music has been a lynchpin of creative media since the dawn of broadcast advertising. Now the advertising industry is returning the favour. Product placement, branded content and new music distribution channels have revitalised an industry that is desperately seeking new sources of creativity and revenue. The relationship between advertising and music has always been a close one, but as both industries continue to change and exchange talent, work, energy and influences, the time has come to examine the new creative partnerships and mechanisms at work.

In a world where 97% of marketers think music can strengthen their brands, are marketers really using music partnerships to their full potential? The landscape has changed and we’re living through the brand shift, where product consumers and music fans can prove equally valuable. In a presentation showing proven affinities between music and brands, Olivier Robert-Murphy discusses what brands and agencies can bring to the music fan conversation, and looks at what you have to give to your consumers, to turn them into fans?

Crowdsourcing photos has become a big trend in recent years. But what can we do against getting flooded by tons of crap? Motivate users by promising a better ranking? Badges? Money? Nope! What we learned about gamification is that pure game elements are not enough to motivate people. So, together with Ars Electronica Futurelab, we started rethinking the existing modalities to find out what possibly could motivate ‘the crowd’ to give their very best: Showing the world how cool you are? Being a hero for one day? Just a good feeling? During the festival we will try different setups and challenges, testing how Gamification 2.0, along with some fun ‘game based’ photo wishes and challenges, really can intrigue Cannes Lions visitors.

Charlie Frauscher will surprise you with the results of our live tests. Join us for brand-new insights about how to make more of crowdsourcing.

While holding companies and consolidation are the norm in the advertising industry, Wieden+Kennedy has continued to thrive as the largest independent agency in the world. Over the past 32 years it has maintained the core principles of the agency – the work comes first, independence and the people. While it has and never will waiver from these core principles, the dynamic advertising industry constantly challenges the agency. It’s recently appointed global team of Colleen DeCourcy and Mark Fitzloff as global executive creative directors, and Dave Luhr as President, would like to explore a few topics:

• The challenges of remaining an independent agency and being successful when we are always up against the ‘giants’ of the industry.

• How can W+K service the world from a micro-network of eight offices (not 200).

• While clients comes to the agency because they say they want creativity, do they realise what that means?

• What is it like to follow in the footsteps of Dan Wieden?

THE MARTIN AGENCy: THE RENAISSANCE OF MuSIC IN AdVERTISING: MOVE OVER jINGLES, MAKE ROOM FOR BRANd MELOdIES

Since the first radio broadcast, music has been a constant in advertising. But times and tunes have changed and brands are more likely to have a progressive, memorable melody these days than a cheeky jingle. Brands are increasingly using melodies as a thread to tie together multi-national campaigns. Having created music-based campaigns for Oreo and Free Credit Score, The Martin Agency is one of the agencies that is re-defining how music is used, not just as an accompaniment for a concept but rather the core of an entire creative platform – driving content far beyond ads.

‘Dumb Ways to Die’ was one of the most awarded campaigns of 2013 – also based on a catchy melody. But where is this trend going next? How does music help the brand in the digital and social media realm? How does music affect ad recall? Are musicians who lend their talents to advertising sellouts? Or, can great brand melodies help musicians break out? All this and more discussed in this melodic brand session.

This session will be followed by a 15 minute Q&A with the Forum speakers from Universal Music and The Martin Agency.

The Entertainment, Media and IT community have all converged in the digital age. There are new definitions for behavior, performance analytics, success, creative principles, privacy and government regulations. Everything moves faster than legacy industries can track, competition is fierce and consumers are smarter than ever before. The ‘norms’ and values in digital media have transformed the real estate in this ecosystem. Outlining and examining the goals of tech industry leaders, government participation, the population at large as well as individual creators of ‘everything digital’ will be critical to everyone’s success. Focusing on two pilot markets – Barcelona, Spain and Kansas City, Kansas – we will examine key takeaways from these digital cities. This will provide an opportunity to understand concrete dynamics and contextualise the debate on the complex issues of tomorrow’s technology – today. Through this lens, participants will have an opportunity to build common ground with other stakeholders representing divergent/common interests and to create effective tools to facilitate future best practices.

The City of Detroit declared bankruptcy in 2013. At that time, Lowe Campbell Ewald pledged to participate in the rejuvenation of Detroit by moving its 500-strong agency to Detroit and began to actively participate in the creative reboot of this iconic city. The 103-year-old agency opened its doors in Detroit in January 2014.

The city that brought Motown and Techno to the world is a hive of new creative and technology companies, working alongside world-famous Detroit ‘Motor City’ brands such as General Motors, driven by adversity to a creative reboot that is set to power the city back to greatness. José Miguel Sokoloff knows a thing or two about changing societies using the power of creative thinking.

Our current education system is ill-prepared to educate the next generation of creative leaders. Developing every individual’s creative potential will be one of the crucial value-creating factors for leading economies in the imagination age. Assuming the whole education system will need to make a radical transition in many countries around the world, German creative agency Sommer+Sommer and the Berlin School of Creative Leadership asked more than 100 creatives and futurists in 35 countries to inspire an innovative framework for 21st century schooling. Workshop participants will share their own creativity methods and principles to inspire concrete actions and approaches for the vision of a 21st century schooling framework.

The participants will work in small groups on 4 concrete fields of action: Creativity Culture; Organisational Design; Leadership’s Role; and Creativity Methods. This workshop will bring an extraordinary research project to its final. The results of the overall research and this workshop will be shared with leading education experts and published in the book Classroom Thinktank. Come along and help shape the future.

The advertising business is going through a revolution, driven by consumers and their appetite for on-demand content and culture. Supercharged by smartphone adoption, music is at the forefront of this content movement. Smart marketers are now working with the new generation of artists to provide rich music content that drives brand storytelling.

In this Forum, specialist digital agency Moxie will explain how tapping into music and other popular culture gives marketers the ability to tell new brand stories and to develop long-lasting relationships with consumers.

Music star and YouTube sensation Chester See will then talk about how brand partnerships have been key to his success.

Everyone wants a great idea. But as Sturgeon’s Law states, 90% of everything is crap. And that includes advertising.Most of advertising is not bad. It’s just done before. Or not done well. And sometimes should not have been done at all.The good news then is that 10% of everything is not-crap. A fact reflected in the percentage of work that normally makes the Cannes Lions shortlist. So if you want to have more not-crap ideas then have more crap ones.The problem is we tend to actively filter our own ‘crap’ ideas. Writing down only those that seem ‘good’. This leads to expected, comfortable solutions. And this is what tends to make up the warm and steamy 90% of our output. So to help you climb into the magic 10% we have developed the crap ideas generator. This tool helps you come up with lots of new ideas – in a short space of time.Using the pressure of work in the service of better ideas. In this session we will be using examples from art, culture and occasionally advertising. And we will then take a nominated problem and generate 100 ideas as a group with which to solve it. Please come prepared with a problem you would like tackled – or brief you would like to crack. If our principle is correct we will have 10 good ideas – and perhaps one great one.

The Mother Monster herself, Lady Gaga made the bold statement “Don’t Sell Out. Sell In” when questioned at SXSW about her acceptance of brand money from Doritos. She claims that it is a necessity in lieu of labels not being able to fund her ‘art’. Needing to get in bed with brands is increasingly part of an artist’s career trajectory, but what constitutes ‘Selling Out’ in today’s evolving music landscape? Is ‘Selling In’ merely about generating cold hard cash for increasingly maligned artists or a genuine move towards credible partnerships with brands as the new patrons of culture and entertainment?

Music videos still dominate the digital landscape. In 2013, Nielsen data contributors reported over 57.1 billion music video streams out of the 118 billion total streams, up 32% over the previous year. This makes music videos the most effective vehicle for brands to reach the cord-cutters, the millennials, the demographic that’s hardest to engage with conventional brand messaging. Research also found that not only do people notice brands in music videos, but they can contribute to a lift of 8 percentage points, on average, in purchase intent and improved perception. Why do music videos work so well with the skip generation? How do brands and artists take advantage of this enormous reach? What are the pitfalls? In a few year’s time, will artists make more from their video content than their audio? This panel investigates the successes and failures of ad campaigns in video, best and worst practice, and how evolutions in advertising tech are making CPM from BPM easier and more effective than ever before.

The music industry landscape has radically changed over the past decade, undergoing nothing short of a revolution. It has affected everyone from artists and managers to labels and listeners; and where once talent regarded brands with suspicion, now they are embraced as creative partners. Meanwhile, a climate of collaboration is reaping rich rewards and consumers are engaging with music more deeply than ever. In the face of so much change, this panel will ask: What does the future of the music industry look like? Will our listening habits evolve? How will attitudes to ownership change? What tipping points are on the horizon? And what will they mean for brands, artists and agencies? What will the revenue model of the future look like? Will record labels continue to exist?

SPEAKER

Music is the ideal content to bring together artists, audiences and brands in a multichannel world. Record labels can be viewed as media owners capable of delivering large, engaged audiences direct to brand clients. About five years ago, spurred on by the digitally-driven changes in music consumption that had blown the doors off its traditional business model, Sony Music decided to figure out if there was a better way of doing things – a way that built on the intuition that sits at the heart of a creative business but added some science and rigour to the proceedings. So it looked to the world of agencies for inspiration and ended up building one of its own to serve its labels and artists. This is the story of what happened, and what’s coming next.

Two of the most inspirational creatives take the stage in a special session to say what they really think about the advertising industry and how it is responding to the many challenges it faces.

Sir John Hegarty won the first ever Lion of St. Mark Award in 2011 in tribute to his outstandingly successful creative career. He was a founding shareholder at Saatchi & Saatchi in 1970, founding Creative Director at TBWA London, and with his own name above the door at Bartle Bogle Hegarty has gone on to enjoy over 30 years of success, winning virtually every creative award in the process.

David Droga founded Droga5 in New York in 2006 and is not only one of the most awarded individuals in the history of Cannes Lions, he is also the youngest person ever inducted into the New York Art Directors Club Hall of Fame. Previously, he was Worldwide Creative Director of the Publicis Network, Executive Creative Director of Saatchi and Saatchi London and Regional Creative Director of Saatchi Asia. In 2013, Droga5 sold a significant minority stake to William Morris Endeavour in a strategic move to better serve both entities’ clients.

In this unique seminar, these two inspirational creative leaders will try to put wrongs to right, dare to say the un-say-able and attempt to nail the real issues facing the industry today. Their work has, and continues to, shape this industry and their unvarnished opinions should make this a rare conversation, not to be missed.

Music partnerships have become an ever more integral part of product promotion. But after hip hop, indie rock and EDM, are you brave enough to embrace the next musical movement before it’s mainstream? We’ll explore the balance between creating success for the brand and success for the artist. Will a deeper, growing relationship with an artist help you have a real relationship with your target and their fans? A synch license, tour sponsorship or on-camera commercial appearance are often good business for the advertiser and the artist, but let’s address whether it’s shortsighted to end a relationship between brand and artist there. Join us for a lively debate with some of the top minds in the music + brand world.

CONTENT PROGRAMME

Is it just us, or is the gulf between what marketing aspires to be and what it actually is, getting bigger? Our industry’s original innovators knew it was about aligning every discipline in a company so that it could be accurately mapped to the lives of real people. And yet the more nuanced and complex the media landscape has become, the more marketing has been reduced to an apologetic commodity through which brands barter for a share of customers’ attention and wallets, all while we dream of moonshots and silver bullets. Technology felt like it could, indeed should, help address this gulf, but instead it’s distorted reality, creating a near-obsessive belief that shiny new stuff is the answer, when invariably all the shiny new stuff really does is ask more questions of a company and its reason for existing in the world. In this seminar, Contagious explores the theory that true innovation is actually something marketing was born to do. It just forgot how.

Have you ever tasted words or felt the texture of yellow? Is your alphabet rainbow-coloured? What is the smell of ‘pure joy’? Prepare to be challenged about the way you perceive your senses and let us feed your imagination with Synaesthesia – A Creativity Showcase. In this fascinating session, composer Philip Sheppard demonstrates his theory ‘music is liquid architecture’. By using state-of-the-art technology, together with an electric cello, he will spontaneously compose a piece of music with the audience...without them even realising it. In addition, TED speaker and human cyborg Neil Harbisson will talk about seeing in black and white, but hearing in colour. Suffering from achromotospsia (seeing only in black and white) Neil will showcase the unique antenna that he wears which enables him to hear in colour. Don’t miss this session of provocative presentations and performances relating to sound, music and image. You may never think in the same way again.

MDC Partners Chairman and CEO Miles Nadal interviews Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg, examining the way in which creativity is being leveraged in the C-suite of today’s most innovative companies. Eric is one of the few people ever to make the leap from agency CEO and CCO to becoming the CEO of a global company of Activision’s scale. Since creatives are largely absent from the C-Suite in corporate America, Advertising Age referred to the move as “The Eric Hirshberg Experiment.” And that Experiment has paid off. After three years of record setting results and several industry-first creative innovations, Hirshberg is evidence that the application of a creative ethos at the top can drive not only creative excellence, but most importantly, marketplace results. The breaker of entertainment records, the architect of marketing firsts, and the leader of one of the most innovative and successful companies in the world is proving that creativity in leadership is not only powerful, but highly profitable as well.

For decades conventional research to pre-testing creativity has been criticised for its inability to accurately reflect how consumers respond to brand communications in real life. Conventional approaches to research, such as interrogating audiences in a lab, can create false readings. People do not consume media in a Big Brother environment. Daniel Kahneman has significantly advanced our understanding of how people make decisions in their lives through two key neurological systems: System 1 (emotional) and System 2 (rational).No decision can be made without these two systems working together. But most conventional research relies heavily on System 2 thinking. VCCP’s Studio Ex Nihilo are looking at wearable technology that can be used at home, alongside a bespoke methodology, to better understand how decisions are made. See how sound design, context and different types of edit affect perception, interpretation and responses to marketing.VCCP will show how emotional measurement technologies as well as conscious measurements can uncover new ideas and insights into what works creatively, ultimately driving better results for products and advertising.

Increasingly, brands are struggling to thrive in a world where their marketing messages no longer stack up next to the latest season of House of Cards or The Walking Dead. Now, brands need to focus on becoming part of culture rather than leaving it stuck in the ad breaks in between. This requires brave new ideas and an experimental approach to content creation. An approach centered on imperfection, iteration and the recognition that failure is a crucial component of success. DigitasLBi is pioneering a new creative process that draws on technology, rapid protoyping and always-on learning to transform the ideation process and create an environment that encourages brands to invest in happy accidents. DigitasLBi’s Chris Clarke, Lorenzo Wood and John McCarus lift the lid on the ‘Accident Factory’ to reveal the ideas that worked...and, more importantly, those that didn’t. Join this seminar and change the way you think about creativity forever.

Introduced by Anne Finucane, Global Strategy and Marketing Officer, Bank of America.
