"How can brands target their marketing to millennials? Easy -- just crib from the playbook laid out in "This Is a Generic Millenial Ad," a new video that takes its cues from, well, pretty much every millennial-targeting ad you've ever seen.
At the start of the video an announcer says, "You are unique. You are different. You are special" as millennials-in-action visual clichés are mercilessly unleashed.
The geniuses behind this meta-ad: Calgary-based Dissolve, a purveyor of stock footage (including every bit of stock footage shown in this video), working with Brooklyn design agency And/Or.
(Back in 2014, Dissolve released "This Is a Generic Brand Video.")
