Objective: Increase brand advocacy amongst Jameson’s target audience of 25 – 35 year old urban, creative, males with an idea that builds on Jameson’s global platform of film.
Idea: Reversing the idea of User Generated Content, we created a production company and made films written by Jameson drinkers. The films screened at short film festivals around the world, winning awards and recognition. The campaign was supported with print, cinema, radio, online, experiential and social media.
In 2011, its third year of existence, John Jameson Productions produced 3 great films with a star studded cast list that included Gyton Grantley, Barry Otto & Camille Keenan.
