I recently saw this wonderful clip of Hans Zimmer talking about the soundtrack to the movie Interstellar. I dont just like it because of the story he tells, but how he talks about the music representing the heart of the story. For all the ad industry bangs on or has banged on about storytelling, it seem to have forgotten what that actually means. Far too often we talk about it in terms of a format rather than craft.

It’s hard to deny that AI will have a larger part of media buying even as marketers will stall, resist and negotiate every inch of the way. And who can blame them? The uneasy feeling that handing over control to AI, whether through Googles Performance Max or Metas Advantage+ which each promised easier media buying, puts them further from understanding what theyre actually buying has been gnawing at them for a while.
