Kilogramme creates ads for Ketamine, Cannabis, Cocaine and more [UK]

Kilogramme creates ads for Ketamine, Cannabis, Cocaine and more
OCt 14 2010 - how do

A dream brief for the team at Manchester-based animation house Kilogramme, but let’s just hope they didn’t have to do too much research...

The Northern Quarter outfit was charged by Oxfordshire Drug and Alcohol Action Team (DAAT) with crafting a hard-hitting, yet accessible, drugs awareness campaign.

So as not to adopt an overly didactic tone, DAAT asked the team to point out the pros of using specific drugs, as well as the cons.

Kilogramme’s response to the thorny issue centred on porcupine characters with a taste for illegal substances, as you’ll see below.

Ketamine


Mephedrone


Cannabis


Cocaethylene


The agency’s Jon Turner told How-Do that the team had “tried to be as even handed as possible” with drugs like Mephedrone, but when it came to substances like Ketamine and its side-effects “it was like shooting fish in a barrel.”

The animations have been such a hit with DAAT that the body is now using the porcupine characters on merchandise such as t-shirts, postcards, lollipops and condoms.

Kilogramme’s films have been seeded out on YouTube and are being promoted in schools.

Turner said that the clips have provoked reaction from numerous fields, including the Oxford debating society, while the comments on YouTube have been flooding in thick and fast.

He added that the Ketamine film was currently receiving “about 800 hits a day”, noting that it “isn't Susan Boyle, but still feels nice!”

Edit: Added bottom two videos, made videos smaller

They aren't meant to do anything but inform people of the positives and negatives... I don't see how they couldn't work when their goal was simply to raise awareness.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, they are just straight up one-sided propaganda.

Cocaethylene was a good one that they should show to everyone.

They were a bit harsh on cannabis with the "It will make you a nobody" stereotype but at least they tried to keep to the facts. :shrug: (meaning they didn't say "It gives cancer and will fry your brain!!!)

I've always hated this stereotype. Yes, I know a couple of pot smoking losers, but the were worthless before they found weed. Pot smokers do not become losers; losers become pot smokers.

Don't hate me.  I liked them all.  The porcupines are cute...

I especially liked the Ketamine one.... 'now with bladder spasms'

I like drugs and all.... but I'm not about to start wearing a diaper again...

Cocaethylene: yes.

Cannabis:  "Weed transforms you into an unproductive, uneducated, unemployed slob."    Way to be toooooool :rolleyes:

Ketamine: I control my bladder just fine K or no K, thanks...  K isn't really too cool/doesn't fit well socially.  Better for serious K-holing solo or outside social settings.

Meph: The untested bit +serious/worrying and biazarre side effects is all too true.

I believe those meph side effects only rear their heads after large/prolonged dosing.

My heart would beat like crazy for hours after I came down alright though.

People wouldn't to trouble if they took one dose and no more. You'd come down and be able to sleep and everything.

These are all true...for porcupines.

Ketamine= Amazing, never had any problems with it.  If you're with people or at a concert don't do a huge line, just do key bumps and everything with be fantastic:thumbup:

Meth-don't care for it:thumbdown:

Cannabis= Weed doesn't make you lazy, you make yourself lazy.  Accept responsibility, don't blame a fucking plant for your actions.

Cocaethylene= Common sense...don't mix alcohol with cocaine.

Alcohol= why isn't there a video for this?:mad2:

the patriarchal legends, the sojourn in Egypt, and so on,
are rooted in the religion of the sacred fungus,
developed from the underlying fertility philosophy of the ancient Near East.”
