These wonderful photos are taken by motion sensitive cameras installed by hunters to track their prey’s behaviour
Try to ignore the purpose of these photos (ad running under this poor deer says ‘what would you pay for a good knife?’) and just enjoy the doomed wildlife close up.
Eric Kessels (of ad agency KesselsKramer) has made a book of them entitled ‘In Almost Every Picture’.

MisEntropy: A Whitepaper outlining an Ad Pre-Testing model based on Prediction Markets ["The fundamental principles behind current advertising pre-testing models have hardly changed in the past few decades. This paper argues that it’s time to update the discipline with contemporary paradigms of collaborative thinking and decision-making. Using the thinking behind prediction markets, the paper constructs a completely revamped model for ad pre-testing – offering another avenue for advertisers seeking precious market information, while also clarifying the role played by traditional ad pre-testing."] |
