OVERVIEW

Description

Viewer Discretion Advised is a pre-roll campaign where the first five seconds are so intriguing that the viewer can’t resist watching the whole thing. Each film begins with a warning screen, implying that the film will contain something offensive, like bloodshed or violence. When the viewer passes the 5-second skip point, what they actually see is just an ordinary activity, like a woman driving a car, girls sitting in a classroom, a man writing a blog, or two men holding hands. The campaign shows that these seemingly everyday acts are actually prohibited and brutally punished in some parts of the world, driving viewers to take action against this injustice and support Amnesty International.
