Background
95% of Americans are in favor of being a donor, but only 58% are registered.
Execution
The radio spot takes the listener through a day in the life of a person. As we hear what she’s doing, we realize there’s something strange about it. She’s in completely different places within short periods of time, she appears to be an adult and a kid at the same time, and there are a lot of contradictions in her story. The spot ends with the line “A single person could bring many stories to life,” revealing that the main character was an organ donor, and she is living different lives through different organ recipients’ stories.
