Storytellers often use phrases everyone can relate to. They refer to shared emotions, memories, etcetera. In a presentation visuals can support these stories by using specific visuals the audience are familiar with. LEGO takes it to another level in this 2012 ad campaign. In one image they not only refer to cartoon characters we all know from when we were kids but they add an extra layer: imagination. Result: A beautiful emotional connection between a brand and its customers.
