genys / drink with no name
Invention of the product (a spicy alcohol drink),
product design, and
advertising campaign (prints, posters, flyers, viral video clips, etc.).
DDB Vilnius, Lithuania, 2009-ongoing
This is a spicy drink for the first time in Lithuania coming out with no name and no label, except for an image of woodpecker on the package. Woodpecker in Lithuanian mythology is one of the very honored birds, symbolizing long age and strength. The name of the product is never mentioned, instead promoting it as a drink evoking all kinds of unexpected activities related to unnatural strength. In Lithuania advertisement business is in a very early stages, the products are often over commercial, with number of slogans, labels, and add campaigns; in 18 years of Lithuanian independence the environment changed so much that it was a challenge to create a product that would have no name and just simple graphics.
