What would you do if you had the responsibility of giving a SPEECH FOR GRADUATES of one of the most important UNIVERSITIES IN THE WORLD?

"NO BIG DEAL, JUST 3 STORIES" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc

What would be the LAST IMAGE that you would like to leave at the AUDIENCE'S MIND after the speech of your life?

"ONE STORY THAT I WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE WITH YOU TODAY". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3LoN4r5kuo&feature=PlayList&p=C01 438B9738CD854&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=4

GREAT STORIES GIVE SENSE TO OUR LIFES

stories are full of MYTHS "Exemplary and sacred ideas that provide sense to the human existence since the beginning of our times". Mircea Eliade, mythologist.

stories are full of ARCHETYPES "Patterns that are alive in the collective unconscious of all societies" Carl Jung, psychologist.

stories are full of CONFLICTS "What you want to do but is prevented to do" Aleksei Abib, filmmaker

stories are full of MESSAGES

AND BESIDES THAT...

GREAT STORIES ARE EVERYWHERE

We can hear them from a FRIEND

Or we can hear them at the CHURCH

We can learn them in the CLASSROOM

Or we can learn them from our COLLEGUES

We can watch them at the THEATERS

Or we can read them on the NEWSPAPERS

Ops... on the NEWS

STORIES WE LIKE help us to create our PERCEPTION OF VALUE and trough them, we create our OWN STORY

AND WHY DOESN'T YOUR BRAND TAKE A ROLE IN THAT PROCESS?

WHAT IF YOUR BRAND CREATES A STORY THAT WILL MAKE SENSE TO OTHER PEOPLE'S LIFE?

This is where STORYTELLING meets BRANDING

"The universe is made of stories, not atoms." -Muriel Rukeyser The brand is made of stories, not products or services.

"Storytelling is the most powerful way to put ideas into the world today." -Robert McKee Brandstorytelling is the most powerful way to engage the consumers of our days.

"It is not the voice that commands the story. It is the ear." - Italo Calvino It is not the marketing director that commands the story. It is the consumer.

"A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him, and in that way he becomes immortal." -Will Bloom | Big Fish A brand tells its stories so many times that it becomes the stories. They live on every touch point, and in that way it becomes immortal.
