And Luke Sullivan tells you why. http://a.beining.com/blog/index.php/2009/10/simple-is-better-and-luke-sullivan-tells-you-why/ http://a.beining.com/blog/index.php/2009/10/simple-is-better-and-luke-sullivan-tells-you-why/#comments Fri, 02 Oct 2009 00:20:00 +0000 admin http://a.beining.com/blog/index.php/2009/10/simple-is-better-and-luke-sullivan-tells-you-why/ Luke Sullivan, the Author of “Hey Whipple, Squeeze This: A Guide to Creating Great Advertising” was on Mediastash.tv on Vimeo, lecturing for the Miami Ad School.http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1045964&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1

In this talk he comes with some great points and quotes.
38 min: Luke Sullivan says “Simple is better. Simple is faster. Simple is more memorable.”

Neil French:
“For everything you add, you take away the importance of everything else in that frame. It is competing for the readers 2 seconds of attention.

Everything you add, reduces the importance of what is in there.
Everything you take away raises the visibility and importance of what is in the ad.”

Amen.

They have created a touchless photoalbum interface. Check out the video:

Ah, and if you happen to be really interrested in testing it (or just in Amsterdam), meet them at IBC 2009 and try their prototype at the Opera Software booth – 3.C11.

Nothing better than to see a client doing great.

(Example: The fantastic song “Bonkers” by Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden is not available on iTunes, nor have I found it in any shop, but its on Youtube…)

Only bad part about Gazzump is that you have to register.

Found it on Youtube. The video has been uploaded by someone else than EMI, namely “aleduke”. Rather than asking him to remove it from Youtube, EMI says: “Embedding disabled by request”. Oh the joys of the musicindustry…

Good and very uncorporate ads coming from Microsoft. WPP has done a good job with the $150 milions they got for the ads. Well, I guess some of that money is also media spending.. :)
