DID WE CATCH YOUR EYE?—
Good, we hoped for the same impact when WHOI launched a video campaign on the world’s biggest stage to highlight the importance of the planet’s largest life-sustaining feature—the ocean. The three-month ocean awareness campaign featured 15-second video spots that aired every hour on the CBS Superscreen above 42nd Street in Times Square, which hosts more than 26 million visitors each year. The first video, which began airing in July 2010, called attention to questions regarding the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The second, called “Alien,” featured one of the amazing “extraterrestrial” creatures that have been discovered in the sea. The third video highlighted Alvin, the nation’s deepest-diving submersible.
