the dove onslaught
October 02, 2007
Oglivy is doing some fantastic work with these Dove videos. While their newest work, Onslaught (see below) is not quite as shocking as their Evolution piece, it delivers to a more targeted and possibly influential audience: parents. Whereas Evolution was a mass audience phenomena raising awareness around an issue and largely targeting adults, Onslaught looks and feels like an extremely well produced anti-smoking campaign - complete with the "talk to your children" tagline.
Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the video below and firmly believe that it will be significantly impact-full against the target audience, generating parental discussions with children and gaining an additional foothold as "our brand" , almost like a family heirloom or relationship that is passed on from mothers to daughters.
But I'm still a fairly new parent, what about you guys? Would this video be something you would shared with your children?
