The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) has released a video on HIV prevention starring Alex
Newell.
Part of the Start Talking. Stop HIV.
campaign, the video follows several gay male couples who meet at a
club where Newell is performing.
The
video follows the couples as they talk about the options they
have to stop the spread of HIV.
Newell (Glee) keeps the club
hopping as he belts out an incredible cover of The Knocks' Collect
My Love.
Manny Rodriguez was a member of the
creative team at agency FHI360 that crated the video.
“This is an authentic campaign, with
gay men involved in both the campaign staff and creative team,” he
told Mark S. King. “Our goal was to marry CDC research with
something that is accessible and enjoyable to watch.”
