TBWA Toronto’s MADD Campaign

This is the latest campaign from TBWA\Toronto and Holiday Films director Adam Massey, a four spot campaign for MADD. In an attempt to mix humour into a serious topic, the crew at TBWA and Massey took a self-described Monty Python approach to keep the spots memorable and differentiate it from other drinking-and-driving campaigns.
“I knew these spots were making light of a very serious issue, drinking and driving, but in a very clever way,” explained Massey. “The first time people see these spots they feel a bit uncomfortable, not knowing how to react to them, are they funny, or sick? But after a second viewing they start laughing, and they get the obvious message from these spots.”
The four pieces can be seen through Glossy Inc.: Lenny, Hal, Ryan and Rob as well as an interview with Massey, general campaign info and credits here.

Great. It was about time someone figured out how to make the point that only morons drink and drive and more particularly that you are a morn if you drink and drive. Good on you.
