condoman

Look, up in the sky. It's a bird? It's a plane? It's who???

Mother Earth: Condoman, you have the wisdom and knowledge to empower our people to make better sexual health choices. Go!

Condoman: My mission is to reduce STIs and HIV and inform people how to protect themselves from these diseases... but where should I start?

About the Animation

Synopsis

Condoman was part of a comic book campaign to promote safe sex that originated in the 1980s. Now he's been brought back to reinforce a cultural and spiritual dimension to same message in the twenty-first century...

As we now live in a digital age it was decided that Condoman would benefit from appearing in an animation as well as in a cartoon, so HITnet will be rolling out the animation in its network of information kiosks across remote Aboriginal communities, as well as online.

We recorded the vocal characterisations in Pegasus Studios in Cairns, where we utilised the talents of fifteen performers to play more than thirty roles.
