Tools for understanding great digital creative

@ewarwoowar
Understanding traditional concepts is easy
Knowing whether a digital idea is a good one is
far harder…


     Which media will it involve?     How do people participate?




        What technologies?          What conversation does it start?




     What is the user journey?         How does it get shared?




       How is it personalised?            How is it activated?

                        effect on a business challenge
