Slow motion sneeze as scare campaign art
Awesome new ad from the South Australian Government that combines artfully executed slow motion video with some of the tell-tale signs of scare campaign advertising tactics…
“There’s a lot of competition to get attention so you need to have a very stark message, a sharp message, and I think this ad, in a very short amount of time, gets the message across in a very graphic way.”
— SA Health Minister, John Hill

Ewwww….
I’m sorry that is disgusting
I thought it was an ad to cover your nose when you sneeze
I wonder how this will impact the social life of the actress we can see in this ad…
I wish I could download that video and use it for teaching methods of germ spreading. Amazing.
@Wow: I’m just hotlinking the FLV from the ABC website, so just look at the source of this page, and download that file. Presto.
