Anti-Smoking Advertising

Its amazing how strong anti-smoking advertising has become. When I first saw the below commercial it blew me away, sadly though, my smoking parents only found it a little offensive and gross, otherwise they didn't bat an eye. I guess that says tons about the strength of the addiction.

I hope advertising like this sticks in the heads of non-smokers as they are being pressured to try cigarettes.

   Hi guys,

   Very interesting.

   I'd like to know if you'd do a tobacco ad if you got the brief, or refuse it.

   I've blogged about this on my advertising and creativity blog.

   peace,
   farrukh
