Yeah, but there is still a very real need to work together with the

'wankers' to provide cross media solutions for clients.  If diciplines

within an agency work separately, then there ceases to be very little

point in having large agencies at all... (whether your owned,

affiliated, or know a guy whose passed the work your way...)


Successful cross media marketing campaigns (print/DM/Web/iTV/wap yaddayadda)

are pretty thin on the ground. Does the panel think this is an issue?

In some campaigns this simply is not relevant, but as more people use

more platforms, the need for a thread (idea/creative concept...call it

what you will) to link them together is going to be pretty key. The hard

bit is finding a thread that works.

Flyposting and other guerilla media is the only thing that keeps outdoor

media vibrant. Its much more in keeping with the spirit of the web of

finding a niche and attracting attention through content and

juxtaposition than a banner ever could.


Lets hear it for Banksy!
