    The Bay Red Cross

    The Bay Area Red Cross have a billboard truck set up at Justin Herman plaza that has a post-apocolyptic-earthquake scene on it, that when viewed from the right perspective looks like all hell broke loose. If you got any more info on this stunt please comment.

    Pictures taken by: Jason DeFillippo.

      These scare-mongering tactics have accomplished one thing for me: I’ve decided to never give a nickel to the Red Cross. This sort of media stunt is just *wrong*.

      I never liked ads which you must be on a certain position to get…and this is no exception, sorry

      I looked past the Red Cross message, although it didn’t bother me, the take-away that I got was how I might incorporate large format print into shapping a vision.

      I would look for ways to incorporate it in shapping a vision during building or street renovations projects.

      To me the creative display technique was very valuable.

      While the Red Cross piece could be incorporated into an ad, I sense that they might have used it “on location” for foot traffic to view.

      [...] The opinions differ on these ads that have been put up for the Bay Area Red Cross. Some narrow minded people think the ads aren’t good at all, because they require initiative from the viewer. Yes, you’ve got to move your lazy ass to fit the image into the real world. However, that is exactly what the Red Cross wants you to do. Take action, come closer, see what could happen and give blood so they can help if it happens. You might think about that as well. You can’t expect them to actually set things on fire to show you why they need blood. I think these billboard trucks are great. If you come across them, you’ll come closer, you’ll want to make it fit, once you see that the picture is fitting in really nice with the city scenery. You’ll be ‘interactive’, be it on a lower level, and it’s something that sticks. Which is the entire point. [...]

      the general rule of thumb with outdoor is you only have but a split second to get the message across, so even if you pass by the truck, pass by the board and catch a fleeting glimpse of the chaos and the red cross logo, the ad works.

      i think these boards are brilliant.

      This is definitely one of the most clever campaigns so far. I would want to see the Red Cross logo a bit bigger tho…

      Awesome Overall!
