Cannes Lions 2014 Trends, Cases & Learnings

What’s trending?

Storytelling is with us from ancient times – it is through stories that we have always expressed ourselves and related to the world around

us. Great stories always defined great advertising, but in the world driven by earned media storytelling becomes more important than

ever. Today’s storytelling has evolved, it is no longer just a brand story to be told to consumers.

It is about creating stories that engage and touch people emotionally, stories that are meaningful and enhance people’s lives.

Those are also stories that are told at the right moment with the true integration of technology and innovations across the spectrum of

paid, owned and earned media to effectively travel and generate unparalleled audience participation. Winning work at Cannes Lions 2014

incorporate great story with human experience at the center and a unique way of telling it.

The last couple of years were celebrating Technology as a creative solution in itself. But nowadays it is all about putting it to the

service of consumers and engaging with people through technology. Technology helps to understand consumers and the world

around better to create more relevant, innovative, immersive campaigns. Technology helps to tell stories we want to tell by

recreating specific feelings, leveraging the right context or bringing physical experiences to online.

• Don’t think about what you can do with tech. Think what your

technology can do for people. Give technology a story and a purpose

• Leverage technology and big data driven insights to create personally

meaningful consumer experiences

It has always been about good emotional storytelling in good advertising. But this year Cannes most regarded work really

packed in an emotional wallop, creating experiential moments of feeling for the consumers. From the resurgence of long-form

and documentary style content with real-life stories and real people at the center, to campaigns that inspired tears, anger, and

even disgust to drive their powerful message home. As a result the story itself became more compelling with power to not only

deliver deep emotional engagement with the brand but also superior business results.

• Emotions sell, so focus on making people feel something vs hard-selling your

products

• Identify your brand qualities that play to consumers emotions and inspire them

to think differently about both

• Craft outrageous or endearing circumstances and experiences that evoke strong

feelings to turn consumers into advocates

“Selfie” was the Oxford Dictionary word of the year in 2013. So it is no surprise that this year in Cannes brand stories focused on

the importance and involvement of the individual, be it celebs or regular people. Selfies, 3D pictures, smiling pictures, it is all

about you and your face all over the place. “Me” is so important that brands went as far as celebrating selfishness at Christmas.

• Find new and creative ways to use individuals and their personal stories rather

than scenarios in your coms

• Invite individuals not only to be part of your campaign, but to be at the center of it

• Encourage consumer interaction around your brand by facilitating personal and

mobile consumer experiences

Product and service innovation today is bringing together humanity and business, driving unlimited new opportunities not only to

make profit, but also to better people’s lives in relevant and meaningful ways. There is a new form of advertising emerging which

smartly innovates at the product level and tells brand stories through new products and services while creating high practical and

emotional value to consumers.

• Think of ways to give your consumer a multi-sensorial experience of yourproduct or service

• Merge real and virtual words and invite consumer interaction and participationby giving them tools to navigate and personalize their experiences

As consumers are faced with information overload, the need to engage them with the right message in the right moment has increased. Relevant environment and creative use of media and technology are clearly becoming important brand storytelling tools as advertisers combine intelligent placement with smart tech to create truly personalized experiences between brands And we could see it in a number of winning campaigns across a range of categories in this year Cannes Lions.

• Activate contexts, places and mediums where your consumer experience yourbrand coming

• Consider intelligent placement and think what smart tech you can use toenhance the experiences between your brand and consumers

Nothing ever went viral by taking the safe route. Risks allow you to tell a story and surprise people with something new or unforeseen. But when those risks are grounded in a human insight, not only you have Cannes Gold but also a disproportionate amount of earnedmedia that places your brand at the heart of the popular culture. Tension is what makes any idea great, and if you risk to take that leap of faith, you may find yourself surprised by the wonders it will do to your brand. A lot of winning cases at Cannes this year really challenged existing brand rules and assumptions.
