Yes, you read that right: this month’s slogan challenge is for the boxed wine brand whose slaps are heard round the world: Franzia. We were sent their Instagram the other day and were tickled to see that they were using humor and fun in their branding. So, naturally, we wanted to honor them with a 10-minute improvised brainstorm. It’s the least we could do for all of the memories they’ve given us (okay, it was college, so those memories are a tad bit fuzzy).

As always, the Slogan challenge rules are 1/ 10 minutes on the clock 2/ fully improvised concepts (no prep work allowed), and 3/ no bad ideas. (Although our video of the brainstorm may suggest otherwise.) The goal of these spec work projects is to use our imaginations freely, showcase our creativity, and have fun. Bonus: we may or may not have gotten a call from one of the brands we did a slogan challenge for this year to discuss a collaboration.
