More and more documentary style videos are being used by brands to better connect with their audience. Why? Because consumers are skeptical of traditional commercials that impose a contrived sales message.
Documentary advertising is based around real stories that are designed to come across more naturally to the consumer.
Asics has done a brilliant job telling stories about the everyday lives of professional triathletes.
