THINK! | Tales of The Road

O novo esforço da campanha THINK!, realizada pelo Departamento de Transportes de Londres desde 2000, é voltado para crianças, com a intenção de ensiná-las como se comportar ao atravessar e andar nas ruas.

E para chamar atenção de seu público-alvo bem no meio do festival de cores e estímulos visuais que é um canal de TV infantil, nada melhor do que animações. São quatro filmes criados pela Leo Burnett London que formam a série “Tales of The Road”.

Tales Of The Road

O primeiro deles conta a história do “The Boy Who Didn’t Stop, Look & Listen”, que um certo dia não pôde mais brincar com a bola. Tem também a “The Girl Who Didn’t Dress Bright in The Dark”, que ficou invisível na escuridão da rua a noite.

Outros dois filmes serão lançados nas próximas semanas, e poderão ser vistos no site da campanha, que traz ainda jogos para cada uma das situações.

A produção é da Nexus.
