Transmedia planning
“In this model, there would be an evolving non-linear brand narrative.Different channels could be used to communicate different, self-contained elements of the brand narrative that build to create an larger brand world. Consumers then pull different parts of the story together themselves.The beauty of this is that it is designed to generate brand communities… as consumers come together to share elements of the narrative. It has a word of mouth driver built in.”

Other things that are going on
Different models?– Fallon’s ‘tease the TV ad on the web’ model.– Goodby Silverstein / Crispin Porter’s ‘use TV to advertise the
website’ model.– ‘Engagement planning’, which seems to have been reduced to
‘drive people to the website to complete the experience’.
The debate about ‘media neutral’:– Is it possible to be truly media neutral?– Is it right to try and be truly media neutral?– My advise? Be ‘media promiscuous’. Or ‘differently media
positive’.
Which model?
Which model to choose?
Competitive environment:– The simplest one that you can get away with in the market.
Consumer needs:– One that suits the target audience, and how they interact.
Organisational vision:– The one that client and agency together believe in.
Organisation capability:– The one that the client organisation can pull off.
Doing integration
Resource, not cash
Diverse backgrounds, blurred roles
Open and collaborative
Doing, not talking about doing
Belief that you can do anything
Think digital. Invent stuff.
Continual hard work
Small egos
Planner as facilitator, not tortured genius
In summary
Six basic models of integration:– Visual integration– Execution integration– Communications idea integration– Brand idea integration– Brand purpose integration– Brand narrative integration
All are still valid, depending on the circumstance.The more integrated you want to be, the more resource, discipline and good-will you need.Being integrated is about practice more than theory. Just be open, collaborative, flexible – all of which require putting ego aside.
Thank you
