A Big Mess

19 Nov 2006

Every so often you’d see a really shocking campaign. Recently I blogged the PSA with the drowning kid, then before that there was the truly shocking simulation PSA with a kid that got ran over. Now it’s something from New Zealand where they’ve put the inside of a man into a blender. (Yeah, blenders are hot lately) Pretty confronting if you see it and very disgusting, even though the image itself looks pretty clean. I’m not sure this is the right approach. I also think the message is too well-hidden in the visual… I don’t know. I think it won’t be effective unless it’s placed above a urinal or a sink, some place where you can look at it for a while, because the message won’t get through in a glance.

    Perhaps the blender ad should have a pink alternative then? ;-)
