Bullying prevention social activist Monica Lewinsky announces the launch of the “In Real Life” PSA campaign – including new additions to the #BeStrong suite of emojis.
Video: In Real Life #BeStrong
October is Bullying Prevention Month and the film and emojis are designed to bring attention to the epidemic of cyberbullying and offer solutions. While the PSA draws attention to the difference between how people behave online versus in real life, the #BeStrong emojis allow people to take action when witnessing online bullying.
“In Real Life” is a powerful exploration of bullying that recasts the issue and asks the question: “If this behavior is unacceptable in real life, why is it so normal online?” Bbdo New York, the award-winning agency, created the pro bono campaign, working from an insight shared with the agency by Ms. Lewinsky. Bbdo collaborated with Lewinsky and the award-winning public relations firm Dini von Mueffling Communications to address this idea.

In an attempt to combat youth knife violence and crime in England, the Metropolitan Police have enlisted Amv Bbdo to help teach teens to stay clear of knife violence. The result? A YouTube campaign that encourages viewers to "Choose a Different Ending."
An initial video places the viewer in a social atmosphere with friends, then asks the viewer to make a decision: Take the knife, or don't take the knife. The story continues to unfold (there are a surprising amount of videos and ways the story can pan out--getting through the whole campaign takes a good amount of time), until the viewer comes to the predictable conclusion. Don't take the knife, you can end up dancing with a pretty girl at a fun party. Take the knife, you can end up in jail.
The message is a good one and the videos are entertaining, but will it be effective? An entertaining,...
