Give Blood - Video Ad Campaigns


Albert Einstein hospital blood drive
Filmed real customers in a store as they come across blood on display as if it was a soft drink. Lets the viewer watch the characters reaction to the discovery in the film and recreates the feelings as if the viewer was experiencing the discovery of blood in the store themselves.
Makes people question how hard it is to get hold of blood and whether blood should be easy to get hold of when you need it.
What if anyone in need of blood could find it anywhere? Based on this question, Hospital Albert Einstein created an innovative way to make people aware of the need for blood donations. We’ve placed blood bags in refrigerators of several convenience stores throughout São Paulo. The costumers were amazed to found them beside sodas and sandwiches. Their reactions were filmed, and the resulting film was posted on the Internet and displayed on movie theatres under the tagline: “If getting blood was this easy, we wouldn’t have to ask you to donate.

The video campaign shows short clips of peoples faces surrounded by black space, adding drama using classical music and long fades between each video clip.

Thai Red Cross Society

Shows an animated clip where children’s arms control drawings of blood bags. It follows the story of how the blood is used to help people who have been in a violent robbery and how the blood has been used to help babies.
It uses the story that the grim reaper would like to take the soul of a soldier away who has been injured by war, but how he has survived due to the blood that has been donated and the grim reaper is sent away.
It plays upons the idea that all the people in the world are connected by showing children holding hands around the globe all linked up by large veins to one central heart which is supplied by a blood bag that has been donated.
