Brief Explanation

Bundaberg Rum is a brand with a history of ingenious thinking – the rum was created in 1888 as an ingenious solution to a molasses surplus. But in recent years young men had come to see the brand as unintelligent. They had grown up seeing Bundy as a very ‘Aussie’ brand much loved by their fathers and older brothers, but to them it was lowbrow. Our objective was to re-establish Bundaberg Rum as a brand that stood for ingenious thinking, and re-connect with a younger, more intelligent audience. Our idea was The Think Tank – an online platform where people could submit their most bothersome conundrums, which would be transformed into ingenious solutions and then filmed.
