Brand Strategy for Designers

Douglas Davis

About this video

Description

Sometimes, the only way for creatives to have a sound strategy is to write it yourself. In this workshop, creative strategist Douglas Davis will help you bridge the gap between what a brand says externally and what that means internally. Beginning with a mission statement* of your choice, you’ll practice identifying the brand’s values to use as the pillars to build a strategic context for your creative content. The tool in this workshop can be used for culture change, aligning internal and external communications, or brand building.
