Battling skin cancer with fashion, gelato and Major Lazer.
Australia has the best weather in the world.
Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the
world.
2 in 3 Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer
during their lives.
Skin cancer is the most common cancer affecting young Australians.
Young people are the most at risk.
Youth think they are bulletproof. Even if they are awareof
the danger, their behaviorremains unsafe.
Cancer Institute NSW exists to change this behaviour.
Our challenge was to create a social campaign for CINSW
that changed young peoples’ behaviour in the sun.
Young people are nottalking about skin cancer in social media.
They are enjoying cool content...

CINSW must credibly participate in this media landscape. How?
CINSW wants young people to do five things: wear a
hat, sunglasses, tshirt, sunscreen, plus stay in the shade.
To change young peoples’ behaviour we must get them to:
These social movements successfully got young people to do something.
We were also inspired by streetwear labels which create strong
social movements among young people.

Pretty Shady makes the five products that protect you from
the sun.

Pretty Shady enables CINSW to reach youth via channels traditionally
unavailable to them.
Music video.
Street posters.
Instagram.
Lifestyle editorial.
Music festival partnerships.
Events and activations.
Even a summer-long partnership with Australia’s biggest gelato chain.
We successfully created a social movement around Pretty Shady.
Awareness of Pretty Shady amongst NSW 18-24s reached 40%.
67% said Pretty Shady motivated them to protect themselves from
the sun.
71% said Pretty Shady made them think that by protecting
themselves from the sun, they could avoid melanomas.
