The Campaign

After thorough research, we reached to an insight of “breast feeding” was deemed very private and a topic too personal to talk about, yet as well people would opt out breast feeding their children and rather use the off-shelf powdered milk. Eureka! That was our light in the dark tunnel. We created a video that takes in breast feeding as the utmost essential relationship a mother can have with her child.

Creative Execution

The video launched on Youtube and was amplified on a few occasions.
