Kosovo Motivational Diploma Spot
The general theme of the campaign was where were you when the decision was made and showed how your life is impacted when you fail to participate in the process. Since employment is considered a primary concern and corruption a major but lesser concern we designed a spot that used employment as its major theme and directed the piece towards a target audience of young male voters.
