Vestergaard x UNGA 78: Stop the Clock launch film

A child dies every sixty seconds from malaria. Vestergaard is working to stop the clock.

After distributing a billion of its PermaNet bed nets, Vestergaard has significantly reduced the spread of malaria in vulnerable communities worldwide.

I worked directly with Outlook Creative and Vestergaard to create a launch video in seven weeks for Vestergaard's Evening Reception at the seventy-eighth United Nations General Assembly. Using footage of net distribution in Uganda and Vestergaard's Vietnam facility, I created three ideas and a treatment.

Stop The Clock celebrates the collaboration between Vestergaard, local health authorities and NGOs in eradicating malaria. Charlize Theron narrated the voiceover and introduced the film at the UN reception.
