J. Walter Thompson Inks Up Rebellious New Platform For 19 Crimes

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) April 13, 2017 -- 19 Crimes wine fans love tattoos. This month, the Treasury Wine Estates wine brand launches a new campaign by J. Walter Thompson San Francisco that is perfectly in tune with their fans’ love of ink.

With #InfamousInk, the brand recruited San Francisco-based tattoo artist Austin Maples to design 19 original illustrations that offer a modern interpretation of the rebellious history that inspired the brand's name: In the 1780s, the British government initiated a “punishment by transportation” through which criminals convicted of a list of 19 crimes – from petty larceny to impersonating an Egyptian – were sentenced to live in Australia.

The first illustration for Grand Larceny, crime 1 of 19, was unveiled today on the brand’s Facebook and Instagram pages.

Each week until mid-August, the brand will take to their Facebook and Instagram channels to unveil one illustration alongside a bottle shot themed around that week’s revealed crime and behind-the-scenes footage centering on the artist, his inspiration, and his process.

The campaign kicked off on April 6 with a short teaser film introducing Maples, the man behind the ink, and showing him at work with a bottle of 19 Crimes at his station.

Sean DallasKidd, Executive Creative Director at J. Walter Thompson San Francisco, said of the campaign, “We looked at the 19 Crimes consumer base and saw this interest in niche things like tattoos. We wanted to create something that could really speak to what these wine drinkers care about, beyond the brand, while also retelling the brand story with this edgy, modern spin. Working with a wine brand that is so comfortable with stepping out of what’s normal for the wine category really inspired us to do something that was also creatively out-of-the-box.”

Samantha Collins, Marketing Director for 19 Crimes, added, “While many of the people exiled to Australia were convicted of petty crimes, some were also political prisoners who were punished for following their beliefs and defying convention. We see that same rebellious spirit in 19 Crimes fans who want to live infamously in their own way. #InfamousInk nicely brings to life our brand story in a way that our wine drinkers care about.”

#InfamousInk marks the first element of #LiveInfamously, the new 19 Crimes brand platform also created by J. Walter Thompson San Francisco. The platform is an invitation to wine drinkers to borrow from the rogue ethos of the convicts and live a life that is authentic and defies norms.

ABOUT 19 CRIMES WINES
In 18th-century Britain, criminals found guilty of committing one of 19 crimes punishable by transportation, from grand and petty larceny to impersonating an Egyptian, were banished to Australia to form the first penal colony.

Today, Australia’s 19 Crimes wines celebrate the rebellious spirit of more than 160,000 exiled men and women, the rule breakers and law defying citizens that forged a new culture and national spirit in Australia, complete with labels depicting the different criminals-turned-colonists on the bottles.
