Outline

The advertising industry is seemingly transformed beyond all recognition, with programmatic buying, targeted use of social media and even the incorporation of virtual reality into campaigns. But the modern era owes more the traditions and craft skills of previous generations than we often care to admit. Meaningful insights and strong ideas – interpreted visually and verbally in an engaging way – are still the bedrock of success. How can the wisdom of advertising practitioners of the past influence the world of Snapchat and Oculus Rift?

 What you will learn

• The parallels between successful advertising campaigns of the past and those of the modern era
• The importance of powerful storytelling and arresting messages – both past and present
• How current strategies such as ‘native advertising’ and content creation can trace their origins to the past
• Ways to find new inspiration for advertising strategy and creativity in 2017
