Lessons from Coronaville: The Branding Power of Worlds When you think of iconic advertising campaigns, a few brands are bound to come to mind: Corona, Target, Apple, Marlboro, Nike. Why? Because these brands have managed their communications so precisely and consistently over the years they've formed a fictional brand world every bit as convincing and recognizable as any we might find in a richly textured novel, video game or Hollywood movie. In these brand worlds, just like in the real world, life follows a natural and predictable order, governed by certain laws of nature and physics. While it takes a clear brand vision, long-term focus and steady discipline to establish brands of this caliber, these worlds provide an essential foundation for successfully migrating brand communications to the new media world. Chief Creative Officer of C-K and “chief brand steward” of Corona for 10+ years, Marshall Ross will take the audience on a guided tour of these iconic brand worlds and explore their new media evolutions.
