Solace: Macrodosing; Mitt

Message broker corporation Solace can do a lot of things, it seems, but it can't account for human error, as this comic campaign out of Barbarian shows.

The two spots, shot by Alkemy X director Rob Boocheck, set up wacky scenarios in which human miss-steps can make even successes go awry. In Macrodosing [top] a newly promoted employee recovering from a night of celebration accidentally swipes her co-worker’s ‘experimental’ cold brew, resulting in a psychedelic caffeine joyride, while in Mitt, a coder mansplains his way out of a simple email typo and into a long night of invention to save his ego.
