I accidently bought an expensive advertising book thinking it was a graphic design book…which is slightly worrying. Nevertheless, the book features some quirky, smart and sophisticated adds. I thought I’d share this one with you, what with this blog being about music and all.

I think this is a spot on advertising campaign done for the NSW Police Force by DDB Sydney. I’ve actually thought about the affect of headphones on pedestrians and their awareness before I saw this add. I’ve even experienced walking down my street, listening to my iPod, not realising that there was a car behind me. I’ve also been in the other position, where I’ve been in a car driving ridiculously slow behind a girl with headphones, who clearly had no idea I was behind. I sort of wondered whether it was an issue or not, I guess it is with the number of teenagers dying as a result from listening to their iPods’ whilst crossing the road reaching an epidemic number.
