Boutique agency Gents takes their new client Bulldog Gin to the streets of Antwerp. With a slightly provocative, insightful and bold awareness campaign launching the ‘We Are Bulldog’ brand signature.
By combining clever guerrilla tactics with above-the-line media, Gents re-invents and re-writes the rules of visual propaganda.
Starting from the manifesto of Bulldog Gin, where Winston Churchill is quoted, Gents translated the bold and defiant attitude of the brand into a contemporary and visually unique campaign with a disruptive black and white personality. Bold words and statements communicate the attitude of Bulldog Gin in a straightforward way across the streets of Antwerp, addressing the social mavericks in Belgium’s - so they say - boldest city.
To accomplish the underground effect, propaganda-alike posters, stickers and stencils were spread across the city centre of Antwerp.
