Helpers-EU.com is not your traditional campaign, but rather a web series promoted by the European Union to raise awareness about the dangers of tobacco.
In partnership with Daily Motion, but also with a Youtube channel the animated films are a fun way to inform young europeans, but also engaging them with the web series by allowing them to vote on the theme/tip for the next episode.
The series depicts 3 super-heroes who try to save smokers and non-smokers from the negative effects of tobacco, by giving them absurd tips and advice. Chuck, Skinny and Loona, accompanied by Tapas, a masochistic freak of nature that wont leave them alone, unify their strengths for better or for worst.
You can also find the Helpers on Facebook and Beebo.

The joyful playground invites kids to create their elastic and cheesy characters and place them in the Meadow, a world where one must find clues and avoid several traps. Beautiful illustrations along with well thought character physics will surely be delightful to the core audience, and the sounds reminded me of the also wonderful World Of Goo. Which is my way of saying that i love a well crafted kids website.
