Quick post cos I'm tired and going to sleep. Bit wrecked after the bank holiday weekend in Thomastown (Photos from that en route, I have a bit of a photo backlog at the moment). This is my final digital media project for this semester. Made using After Effects, Photoshop and my camera. Concept, illustration, photography and animation by me. Voiceover by Rebecca O'Neill (Thanks!). Music is El Manana by Gorillaz. I've listened to the same 30 second loop of the intro many, many, many times while making this and I still don't hate it. Miracle.
NOTE: I just want to make it clear that although I use their contact info and logo in the final screen, this piece is in NOT affiliated with Aware. They are only used for the purposes of the college project. If you would like more information about depression or Aware you can visit their website aware.ie, but again this piece has nothing to do with them.
Brief outline of the concept that I ripped from my very long and boring project design rational cos I'm not writing a new one:
'The aim of this project was to create a depression awareness ad for television. The stigma surrounding depression and mental illness in general was identified as a major barrier to people seeking treatment for depression. The aim was to communicate to people the message that depression is an illness just like any other, that it isn’t something to be ashamed of, or negatively labelled by, and emphasise the fact that it is this stigmatisation that prevents sufferers from getting help. It should encourage people to learn about and further understand the illness and provide contact details so viewers have the opportunity to get further information or seek help.'
