Kraken Black Spiced Rum
Client: Kraken Rum
Agency: Dead As We Know It
Role: Concept, Art Direction, Graphic Design
To launch the world’s first 94 proof black spiced rum, we developed an integrated campaign based on the sea-beast of myth and legend. We developed an “accurate” history and, quite possibly, real world from which The Kraken Rum, may indeed have come. We created "scientific" movies, a scientific journal and an interactive website to educate the public.
