Many #machinelearning algorithms, whether supervised or unsupervised, make use of distance measures.
Take k-NN for example, a technique often used for supervised learning. As a default, it often uses euclidean distance.
By itself, a great distance measure.
Knowing when to use which distance measure can help you go from a poor classifier to an accurate model.

Agency responds to an RFP, uses a brand anthem they’ve patched together using stock footage and bits of video plucked from social media to set the tone.
Client falls in love with it instead of the other concepts they’ve pitched, and now the agency’s stuck producing it.
A director is then stuck bringing it to life, recreating each frame the agency can’t get the rights to.
They never served any purpose.
They are, by definition, a company talking to itself.
They are the least creative thing a creative can do, or a client can buy.
The only people who benefit from Manifesto films are the people who right stock music Philip Glass rip-offs on their keyboards.

Initially, manifestos took flight as actual advertising. And you bet they can still be effective in telling a great story (if you doubt, revisit The Man Who Walked Around the World for Johnnie Walker). Then, some clever souls reasoned they could also become the emotional tent poles in an agency pitch. The result: they evolved to the « if we could afford $10 million in production, this is the brand video we’d do » (guaranteed, not a dry seat in the house). But that misses the real opportunity: deploying one of these thought starters as the keystone supporting the agency’s entire approach (see Jeff Kling’s brilliant demo of this idea in Wieden’s Miller High Life pitch—https://theescapepod.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/miller_manifesto.jpg )
To get there you have to go way deeper than showmanship. You actually need to have solved the problem.
Two other thoughts:
I know a lot of people think the manifesto art form in advertising reached its apex with « Here’s to the crazy ones. » But, personal POV, there’s have been equally noble efforts—https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8Z5UuGgf_ec
And, last, all other manifestos in our narrow slice of the world pale against this one: http://www.manifestoproject.it/fuck-committees/
Enjoy.
Wait, CD4, you just blew my mind. After Hours Athlete is mocking manifestos?
My team randomly just watched it together the other day, and I’m sad to report that sailed above our heads. It was actually thing to trigger my original question. None of us picked up it was poking fun at manifestos. We all just thought it was earnest, and a way to kick off what was otherwise a really cool and creative campaign
they can, as a super bowl spot, if done well. otherwise, no. they have zero place in a modern media world. if you have to explain your idea, it’s a shitty idea.
I think they’ll come back eventually. They were effective and refreshing pieces of communication at one point but for now they are just disposable marketing air. Can’t remember the last brand manifesto spot I saw that didn’t feel stupid, dated, irrelevant, self serving, and ... flat out boring.
Yes. Sometimes they are simple and short
that’s called a headline.
Canadians still talk about the I Am Canadian spot that ran...15 years ago?
I’m still jealous of the work Taxi did on Viagra vs what was done in the US.
We call those RIPs, and they’re only useful during pitches.
