Introducing The Creator Brand Archetype

creator brand archetype

The Creator brand archetype is authentic and imaginative beyond compare. This archetype is one of 12 brand archetypes that we will be talking about.
Core Desire To create something of enduring value
Talent Imagination, creativity
Motivation Control, stability
Fear Having mediocre vision and execution
Weakness Perfectionism, miscreation
Driven by the need to create and produce something new that will last, the Creator brand archetype utilises everything it can grab its artsy hands on and express its energy through creation. As imagination is the Creator’s fuel, this archetype is relentless in producing a masterpiece, just to feel alive.

They may seem similar, but the Magician might create something of wonder for an audience, while the Creator create something to express itself and as a way of putting meaning in life. Creators can be self-indulgent and absorbent in their work, and they may have the need to show their creation to be appreciated. But at their best, they can create a tour de force that leaves an impression for many generations.

Think of art schools or designing software as Creator brand archetypes, where they market themselves as a way people can get their creative juice running and be better artists. Some platforms and websites also provide customers with the space and options to create.

Devianart, for example, serves as a platform where artists can post their fanart online and get comments and likes. It’s like social media only with fanarts made by artsy fans of television shows, cartoons, comics, animes and so on.

The same goes for writing platform Ommwriter. The website provide a space for writers to pen down their ideas with a completely controlled setting, with music, fonts, writing background and even sound effects made when typing, since all these are believed to help with focus and through process.

Lastly, think about game engines such as Unity, Source and CryEngine as Creator brand archetypes. These are the tools game developers use to create video games, making them able to materialise ideas and imagination to create many amazing video games we see today. Without Source, the game Counter-Strike would not make its way to become an icon of internet gaming. Just ask any gamer.

How to know if you are a Creator brand?
