to 7 basic archetypes that make up all of storytelling throughout
history. An archetype according to Carl Jung archetype is a primitive
mental image inherited from the earliest human ancestors, and
supposed to be present in the collective unconscious. They are
themes which are universal used in storytelling. Brand stories are
nothing new. What’s new is the challenge to communicate the same
narratives across an ever-evolving media landscape.
