Project Brief

Burger King has stood for flame-grilling since 1954. Other chains cook their burgers on flattop grills (effectively frying the meat), but Burger King burgers are cooked over an open flame grill, searing in that great flavour.The mission was to create an promotional campaign that drives home the single-minded proposition: BECAUSE FIRE IS BETTER.
I need to Execute the “flame-grilling since 1954”message in a new, relevant way that makes younger, more cynical consumers want flame-grilled burgers, not fried. Get them to buy into, understand, and retain this message, and ultimately give Burger King another try.

Key Deliverables

• Film
• Print
• Out of home
• Stunts
• Memes
• Installations around the city 

Target Audience

Target audience will be 18-24 year old's:
• Don’t watch much TV
• Are skeptical of marketing claims
• Don’t visit Burger King restaurants as
often as their parents
• Don’t think Burger King’s especially cool

Research Areas

A big, splashy TV commercial that airs across the country might make the media agency happy, but will it show up in your Facebook feed? Get made into a meme? Or written up in the New York Times? A bold, confident challenger. Forget forgettable, Burger King wants ideas that are big and scary. It’s a brand that loves the raw and real, embraces the unscripted, and can make and take a self-deprecating joke
