“up to 40 percent of China’s rivers were seriously
polluted”
“20 percent were so polluted their water quality was
rated too toxic even to come into contact with.”
The total cost in terms of human life: 60,000
premature deaths annually.
CHALLENGE:
How can we increase the awareness of the
seriousness of water pollution problem in China and
get people to talk about the problem and help?
THE IDEA:
We’ll film a series of water pollution in different parts of
China, from green river, blue pond, to multicoloured
lake, and use a static frame as ABSTRACT ART.
We then use these ABSTRACT ART in an art exhibition,
as well as OOH and/or print ad.
People can scan the ABSTRACT ART with their phone
(QQ AR), which activates the artwork to a film -
witnessing the seriousness of the water pollution
problem in China.
People and also instantly make donation after
