beautiful campaign, just not so sure about this one.

I know what you mean. I'm trying to think of something more constructive to say than "I'm just not sure". Tricky. Perhaps it's something to do with the birth idea that the images conjure up... except the embryo shapes are clearly adult... which seems odd... and so on.

They make me a little uneasy. And not in a good way.

for me its clearly a syntax noise. this plural in the middle of singulars. i think it would be better stick with only one organ in the campaign, considering we are seeing only 3 examples

Creepy. Not so sure about the x-ray/invert look.

The concept is cool but totally overdone. Anyway, nice execution.

Interesting concept. I think this would easily grab a magazine reader's attention.

I think that people who are skeptical about organ donation might find this a tad on the creepy side.

Agreed. People who are scared of medical stuff, probably don't want to see organs with tiny people living inside.

I like the ads you wouldn’t think the Red Cross would have something out like this, the ads are very creative and really get your attention. Getting people to sign up to donate their organs isn’t the easiest topic to tackle as a designer or marketing agency, great work JWT.

As a marketing agency you’ve got a number of things to deal with, organ donation isn’t exactly every day conversation, aside from that you’re asking people to think about their mortality.

Although donating your organs is a noble and good thing to do actually going in to a Red Cross center or hospital to sign up has to be hard for most people. I myself am happy to say I’ve always been an organ donor since turning 18 many years ago, hopefully this campaign gets more bodies in the door to do the same.

How long did it take you to think of that, you're so clever, smart and interesting. You're obviously top of the gene pool, college educated and make six figures.

You keep rocking it genius!

The problem is that it doesn't really make me want to donate my kidney.
