🤔 I want to share this outstanding small ad from the AICP (Association of Independent Commercial Producers). 😱 Although the narrative employs artists and viewers as its main characters to talk about the specifics of creative thinking in the advertising industry, the plot is relevant to numerous situations I encounter, where innovative and creative thinking from specialists ought to be celebrated and upheld rather than diminished by those without expertise. #Innovativethinking #creativethinking #expertise

This ad perfectly illustrates what is happening to creatives in advertising right now. Oh, and the "influencer marketing" part is for real. That's where all the ad dollars went. 🤷 Just look at all of the celebrities in the Super Bowl ads this year. Soon every celebrity/influencer will be peddling credit cards, prescriptions and personal care products. Oh wait, they already do. Brands' appetite for influencer testimonials is ravenous right now. Almost everything our eyes touch online is at least partially influenced or funded by a company that wants to sell us something. And it's working. Profits are up as they announce massive layoffs...again. It's all about the money, of course. Lest we forget. Because, hey, a few celebrity cameos and a hundred brand embassadors is still faster and cheaper than what they spent on "real" ads a couple years ago. Things are changing, but there's always greater opportunity with any change. Don't agree? Tell me why and what you're seeing from your side of the world. Let's compare notes. Post a bonus "🏆" comment if you think this AICP (Association of Independent Commercial Producers) Awards ad deserves an award of its own. Congratulations to all of the brilliant minds who were involved on this project. brian billow BBDO Worldwide Cutters Studios #influencermarketing #advertisingagency #advertisingcampaign

Hold fast artists and studios the Renaissance has turned Baroque and soon the Classical period will emerge just waiting to embrace your structural clarity and new styles developed from this drama and energy. The commercial art landscape is always changing but the one constant is that it’s paid for by an advertiser. Influencer marketing, which occurs outside of the bounds of the AICP, production houses, and post houses, is an advertisers dream come true. Hyper segmented marketing, measurable audience, personalization at a dynamic level and now, AI tools to enhance ROI. But it’s a style. And styles change. You’ll adapt just like you always have.

Theatrical needs more movies and more competition. Why? Moviegoing begets moviegoing. When we have more movies in theaters we have higher attendance (shocking!). When we have more movies in theaters we continue the moviegoing habit. But "more movies" has to mean more movies that people want to see in ways they want to see them. This leads me to competition. Movies are not truly competing with one another for audiences on any given weekend or weekday. First, we don't have enough wide releases to really force any kind of competition. Second, our industry is so homogenized in the way distribution deals are set and the way success is defined, that individual films are not truly able to experiment. We have seen attendance shoot up for indie films and family films when there are price incentives like #NationalCinemaDay or MoviePass or exhibitor programs in place. So why is there no widespread adoption of variable pricing? Why does a movie cost the same on week 10 as it did on week one despite that title likely being offered by the studio at home at a deeply discounted price? Why is attendance not as relevant as box office especially for films that do not benefit from PLF pricing? This industry has more data than ever before and more ways to connect directly to audiences, but we are selling them mixed messages. Pay attention to the ads on your streaming channels. How often are you seeing ads for theatrical titles to watch in theaters vs theatrical titles now available in the home? If you were a filmmaker who made your movie with theatrical in mind, what would be your metrics for success? Are those currently in line with our industry's practices? We can do better. For our art and for our audiences. For our culture and our consumers. My team is working on one solution but I know that there are so many other amazing ideas out there that just need traction. Let's collaborate and shift our focus back to the part of our entertainment ecosystem that truly makes money and impact for creators. See you at the movies!
My guest column in Variety: "Major studios have too high a market share, giving them too much power over exhibition – 73% in 2023, though down from the peak. That lower share is due somewhat to the lower number of wide releases from the majors, forcing exhibitors to look to other sources – something they should have been doing in their own interests years ago, before they became utterly dependent on Hollywood to drive their own success. "The results in the domestic market are exorbitant film terms, limited flexibility on screen programming – distributors demand every showtime on booked screens whether or not another film might play better at certain times throughout the week, no flexibility on pricing due to regional per caps that set a de facto floor on what exhibitors can charge, and excessive minimum runs that exhaust potential audiences in smaller markets and obliterate profits by week three. With their market share and reduced supply, studios no longer truly compete with one another on any given weekend or overall, leading to homogenization of booking terms, pricing, marketing expectations and more." https://lnkd.in/gGnHfjzZ

Phenomenal reporting by Ian Sandwell for Digital Spy on a very hot topic for the industry! Comscore, Inc.'s senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian told Digital Spy that while a move to "more dynamic theatrical windows" was accelerated by the pandemic, it hasn't quite been as dire as cinema owners had feared. "This move did not signal a death knell for cinemas, but rather put a spotlight on the value of a 'theatrical first' release with the prestige and desirability increase that a cinema release imparts to every film that lands on the big screen," he explained. "Let's be clear, 'dynamic' means that there is no 'one size fits all' model for every film and that a more curated approach depending on a movie's ongoing popularity – or lack thereof – is beneficial to both studios and exhibitors. "That said, the conventional wisdom that a quicker digital release can hurt a film's box office potential is indeed true if that length of time is unreasonably short as to cause an 'I'll wait for the home video' [reaction] on the part of moviegoers. "However, every movie has its own unique demographic appeal, playability and there have been many instances where films have had shortened windows yet moviegoers still opted in for the in-cinema experience." As noted by Dergarabedian, The Fall Guy – which was available to buy or rent in the US after 19 days, the Universal standard – was still fifth at the US box office the weekend after its digital release.
