Australian actor portrays the death of a whale in graphic campaign for Sea Shepherd
Marine conservation organisation Sea Shepherd is graphically showcasing how a whale is killed in a new campaign created by The Works which sees an actor take on the role of a hunted whale.
Australian actor David Field, who has starred in Chopper, Two Hands, The Inbetweeners 2 and Catching Milat as well as Oak’s ‘Kill Hungry Thirsty Dead’ campaign, takes on the role of a hunted whale, acting out the whale’s struggle after being pursed to the point of exhaustion and then shot with a harpoon.
At the end of the video he reappears in a Sea Shepherd shirt and pledges his allegiance to the cause.
David Field, you’re a legend. Great work and hope it achieves what it sets out to.
Looks like he’s a bit hungry thirsty.
You don’t see much great work in this country. But the production on this is amazing. Congrats everyone involved, hope this gets good traction. It deserves to.
