PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Novinium

Brand Archetype Workshop (with Ponies!)

Archetypes - A Crash Course

  • Deep storytelling roots - transcend time, culture, language
  • Plato...Carl Jung...Joseph Campbell...

The Hero and the Outlaw, Margaret Mark and Carol S. Pearson (2001)

How We Can Use an Archetype

  • Identify "white space"
  • Align overall direction: focus, inspiration, clarity
  • Identify helpful examples and inspiration
  • Inform visual and written expression

Guiding Principles

  • None are inherently positive or negative
  • Don't get too hung up on the labels
  • Starting point, not a prescription -- wide range of possibility within each one
  • Ideal outcome is to identify ONE primary archetype we can all rally around
  • A compelling secondary archetype can influence expression
