Maurice Levy meets Eric Schmidt @ Cannes 2009

We know Publicis has a special relationship with Google

but working at Publicis Modem I don’t really feel any mysterious relationship between the two.

This year Maurice Levy invited Eric Schmidt to a sharing session @ Cannes Lion award, I would like to find the full clip but can’t, share with me if anyone of you have it.

“Radiohead just released a new video for its song “House of Cards” from the album “In Rainbows”.

No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images…”

the interesting thing is that you can interact with their 3D rendering, of course i have no idea how they do it

Google vs WPP, Omnicom, Interpublic, Publicis

http://mootee.typepad.com/innovation_playground/2008/06/google-is-advertising-agency-holding-companies-nightmare.html

this article, by Idris Mootee, has made a very good depiction on the advertising landscape.

Google Is WPP, Omnicom and Publicis’ Nightmare.

and I really like the modest head office of WPP!! really coooooooool

WPP, Omnicom, Publicis, Interpublic are the giants in advertising industry, they look quite like a dwarf in front of google.

What’s the relationship between Google & the Agency groups? Friend? Frienemy? Enemy?

It really depends on Google…I think Google can the one to change the game

a small news, but significant
