Brand Action
Let’s make a movie about branding.
Said no one in Hollywood ever.
Until recently.
Air is currently in cinemas, telling the story of how Nike signed a rookie basketball player, Michael Jordon, developed the Air Jordan and created a billion-dollar brand in the process.
We’ve had a Facebook movie, The Social Network. Key scene; Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake) suggests that they remove the word “The” from the brand name “The Facebook”.
It got me curious. What other brand movies would I like to see and what would be the key scene? Here are my pitches.
Google; changing their name from Backrub to Google.
Amazon; noticed that there was an “A” and a “Z” in their name.
FedEx; discovering the arrow between the “E” and the “X”.
Virgin; the moment the name was scribbled on a napkin that became the logo.
Which brand movie would you like to see and what would be the key scene?
Let me know
