About the Work
The "Hashtag Killer" campaign set out to eradicate the ironic #FirstWorldProblems meme in which people tweet about such life burdens as non-heated leather seats or forgetting their maid's last name - and, in the process, raise awareness about serious developing world issues. For the anthem commercial, we gathered various "first world problem" tweets and then approached people in Haiti to recite them. But perhaps even more effective is the campaign's series of personalized responses, in which various Haitians console those who have used the hashtag on Twitter.
