In the spirit of Jonnie Walker and the Marlboro Man, New York-based agency Amalgamated has launched a new ad campaign for Svedka vodka which introduces the futuristic, party-going, fembot Svedka_Grl, built by the famed Stan Winston studios, and brought to life in print, outdoor and OOH, to brand Svedka as the vodka of the future. With the campaign set in the future, this give Svedka the ability to say anything they like including headlines such as “Svedka. The choice of the stem cell baby boomer generation in 2033, “Svedka says ‘thank you’ for making the gay man’s gene available over-the-counter in 2033” and “Voted #1 vodka of 2033. Goes great with A $450 pack of cigarettes.”
The first print ad launched in this month’s Vanity Fair and pays tribute to those who participated in the Blue State Secession of 2032. Other work will hang on kiosks and billboard throughout NY and LA initially, then expand to five other markets. Certain ads are humorously location specific, for example, the ad addressing the “gay male fashion gene” will hang in the meatpacking district. Good stuff. See all the work here.
