PDFA Thought Bubble
In the war on drugs, it’s become increasingly difficult to reach a jaded and desensitized audience. So when Ground Zero producer, Randy Morton, called about a cool PSA that required a unique type solution to represent a “thought bubble”, Blind Executive Creative Director, Chris Do and the Blind team jumped on the challenge. “Most of what we do is in service of large corporations. It’s nice to work on something that can make a difference,”says Do. The Blind team worked on a variety of type executions before settling in on the final direction– one where the letterforms are seemingly built from the drug in question. All companies involved, including Go Film, Ashe and Spencer and Cut + Run contributed time and resources to building this memorable spot.

looks like a good party
Greaaat job!!!!
@justin, i think the commercial you were thinking of was from Harold and Kumar… Not an actual PSA
Wow, I felt it really interesting how the “you can trust him” piece evolved, the final result is awesome.
These pieces carry very strong messages, well done.
advertisers ARE usually out of touch with the youth… not a big surprise here.
every party is different but the risk and danger is still the same no matter what the age is
Justin – This is a pretty realistic depiction of what goes on at parties. Actually, they could have taken it a lot further, but probably would be un-airable on the networks. The truth is that 95% of kids drink and have sex like there is nothing wrong with it at all.
