Symbolic advertising is an advertising brand that can be a hard job for any designer, but in the cultural aspect of society now using symbols is a key way of creating a look for a brand. Symbolism, is the use of representing things by relating them to something, which in a whole doesn’t really make sense. So, hypothetically a company could use a celebrity for a brand and that celebrity drinks the brands smoothie and acts as if the smoothie was delicious. This would then underpin that celebrity as someone who enjoys that brands smoothies.
