Responding to a Brief

Gather information about the problem - research!
Attack the problem. 
Drop the whole thing, do something else, let your subconscious work. 
Eureka!
Implement the idea. 

Consider the principles of a company. 
What are they trying to get out of it?
What do they stand for?

Branding - branding is about humanising and creating an emotional attachment between product and buyer.  (Dan Widen). 

What will my brand be? What am I about?

User experience - creating an experience across a range of media. Engage people through storytelling.

Ethics - don't be naïve! 

Consider location and target audience - a culture's influences affect the advertising method used to connect with them. 

The significance of the briefs I choose depends on my approach to them. How long will I spend on it?

What do your require from a brief from a friend or family member?
Technical spec, deadline, audience, budget, legality agreement, rights. 

By crit after Christmas... at least 1 brief needs to be finished, but not all briefs need to be finished. After then it is more based on collaboration. 

Brig some work to discuss to next session - 26th Nov. 

Things to look at 
Ad busters, YCN and D&AD, John Lewis briefs, Latino film festival, Infected by art, Quertee / Threadless
