Clicky

brands, behavior, culture

Helping the good guys win at the internet. I like branding, strategy, culture, cognition, behavior and bourbon.

BETC Euro RSCG created an automated system for producing static advertising. All you have to do is input product type and category, objectives (generating awareness, creating loyalty, introducing a new product, etc…), demographic targets and intended benefits of the product.

The system then generates 3 ads meeting the specifications. And the ads are apparently terrible (“There’s no set age to be healthy”? Really?).

But it’s still a cool idea. If they could combine it with the Sketch2Photo internet image compositing tool, we could stop wasting so much money on creative departments that produce terrible work.
