BWS has rolled out a new campaign in celebration of finally being able to drink with our friends again. The funny campaign was created in collaboration with M&C Saatchi.
The spot is made up of a series of fun, alternative acronyms for BWS – Boldly Worn Smugglers, BBQ Without Salad, Badass with Sandals – as well as Christmas with – Badly Wrapped Stuff and Beats Wrapping Socks to further emphasize why BWS and summer go together like a cold beer and a BBQ.
M&C Saatchi partnered with production company Entropico and Director Natasha Foster to create a suite of film and stills that aim to embody the vibe of a cheeky Aussie summer.
The Big Wonderful Summer campaign runs for 2 months.
“From boldly worn smugglers, bloody wanker seagulls and beers with snags, this campaign not only has some fun with BWS but makes BWS a part of any occasion this summer. We’re looking forward to opening it up for UGC to put their own spin on a BWS summer” said Brendan Donnelly, Creative Director at M&C Saatchi Sydney.
Dentsu’s media agency Carat was tasked with media strategy, planning and buying for the campaign – bringing the multifaceted campaign to life across social, online video, OOH, and instore.
“This is our testament to the perfect summer – nothing short of getting Aussies back to the beach, park or backyard with a cold drink in their hand. It’s these iconic Summer moments that makes for a relatable and fun campaign” said Vanessa Rowed, Head of Marketing at BWS.
