Ubuntu Cola

This is our contribution to the Ubuntu Cola - good design contest.

The brief told us to do a classic ad to be printed in the magazine "Filter". The target group was swedes in ages 15-30 years. After some thinking and researching, we realized that a small ad in a small magazine wouldn´t do that much of a difference.

This is what we did instead.

Does this product come in any other flavours? I'd like to try Redhat Cola or Debian Cola. Did Linus Torvalds design the original recipe?

But how do I compile Ubuntu Cola?

And how are they distributed? They must be free right since its a Linux product?

lol

Hi Tomas,

I'm very interested in doing motion graphics myself, but I don't find any point so start. Can you tell me, what software was used in the production of this video?

Cheers,

Markus

Where can I download the recipe?

Cola is unhealty. Why not fair trade fruitjuice? :) Anyway, thumbs up for this great idea.

but how does it taste?

@lukesharpe The word "Ubuntu" means "belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity". This beverage and a Linux distro use the same name, but apart from that they don't have anything in common :P

Ubuntu cola isn't at all expensive.

Why would I want to help a farmer in Malawi?
