Words Kill: a concept-led campaign for UNICEF turning hateful comments into horror movie posters

about

The Challenge

For many relatives, it’s hard to understand how seemingly simple words or jokes can be deeply damaging. UNICEF needed a campaign that could engage audiences around cyberbullying while standing out from typical nonprofit communication.

The Solution

We developed Words Kill, using AI-generated images to reveal what hateful words truly look like from the victim’s perspective: a real-life horror movie.

We sourced actual hateful comments from social media. We turned these disturbing words into horror movie posters.

The Impact

The work gave UNICEF a fresh, ownable creative angle and strong engagement for the cause.
