? THE QUESTION

"What's around our ad that can become part of our ad?"

PROCESS

Work through these questions to generate ideas:

  1. What's the physical context of the placement?
  2. What editorial context can we leverage?
  3. What's happening in time that we can connect to?
  4. What environmental element can we incorporate?

EXAMPLES

Ideas in this space might look like:

  • A bus shelter ad that uses rain as a demonstration
  • A magazine ad that interacts with adjacent editorial
  • A street ad that incorporates real shadows or elements
