Release the Kraken!

Holy mackerel, do I LOVE these spots for ‪The Kraken Rum‬. The art direction, writing and web presence are just brilliant. And these all came out of the beautiful packaging and other print / tangible items. Brooklyn-based ‪Dead as we Know It‬ ties everything together so well it takes this whole campaign to another level. Watch some of the spots below and check out other elements from the campaign to see what I mean. I definitely look forward to watching this campaign evolve.

Love the double finger loops in the bottle packaging.

The website is big, bold and beautiful.

There are so many more great spots, all equally as beautiful.

The blog (journal) portion of the site contains irrefutable proof of the Kraken's existence.

Kraken-related bounty is available at the store.

The mobile app has even more ways to interact with the beast.

Press kit packaging.

Press kit contents.

Even more to get your slimy little tentacles on.
