Budweiser Is Now Called ‘America’… Please Plan Accordingly.

May 10, 2016 by Chris Durso

budweiser-america

Nothing says, ‘America’ quite like a mass-produced, watered-down lager. Anheuser-Busch, although now owned by Belgians, knows this, and will temporarily rebrand Budweiser to be called “America.”

Apparently, this is a marketing stunt for what could be the most drink-inducing season in American history — the summer leading up to this year’s Presidential election. Bottles and cans of Budweiser were only slightly modified for the name-change — making them easily-recognizable for brand-faithful Bud-drinkers.

So, here’s to what could be the most American summer to ever America. Thanks, Belgium!

Runway Fashion Inspired by McDonald’s Branding and Employee Uniforms

March 10, 2014 by Chris Durso

Moschino-McDonalds-6-IIHIH

Who knew that McDonald’s, known for fattening up humans, could inspire a line of haute couture worn by waifs?

During this year’s Milan Fashion Week, Moschino unveiled a line of runway fashion inspired by McDonald’s. The challenge, for creative director Jeremy Scott, was to turn the garish red and yellow color scheme into something fashionable.

As a surprise to no one, actual McDonald’s employees are none too pleased — referring to the high-end line as offensive and exploitative to those who only earn minimum wage. That, and being upset that their mandatory unis don’t come with an adorable leather handbag and matching shoes.

Self-Absorbed: An Artist Reinvents The ‘Selfie’ By Rebranding Products With His Own Picture

July 17, 2013 by Chris Durso

Fed up with the self-taken pictures and “look at me” mentality of some social media users, artist Mike Mellia has responded with a fun series of guerilla art, and his own version of the dreaded “selfie.”

In his series, Self-Absorbed, Mellia uses pictures of himself to rebrand and repackage some well-known products — then places them in supermarkets, bodegas and people’s homes around New York to act his own “status update.”

“With our self-portraits shared through social media, everyone now creates their own ‘brand’,” he said. “This product placement project reimagines some of the most famous branding icons in American advertising.”
