Camila's Pitch for the PSA

E-mail Print PDF
Video

A black and white scene with people walking on streets really fast, and instead of show their faces, they appear wearing black bags with no facial expression.

Something likes this:

cartoon_bag_head

They say “Hi” each other, or “how are you?” but because they are walking so fast they could not hear each other... it sounds like the words were taking by the wind and there was left just the eco.

There could be and ad saying: Mental illness is not a cage.... mental illness is not a barrier. Mental illness can’t take out time away ...

Then someone stops among that hurry and the whole scene stops, and he/she takes off the bag and meanwhile does it, colors start to surround the scene. Then he/she stops the person who is coming to him/her or someone who cross his way and he takes off the bag from that person; when the bag is off the other person is crying (or could be smile too) and colours start to surround that person too; he/she ask, “how are you”, and when the other person jumps to hug him/her. Finally they establish a REAL conversation. (it could be handle with facial expressions)

*there is important that the first person who stops the scene wears a T-shirt of MYM. In the others T-shirt could say: fear, sadness, anger, loneliness, depression...

When they start the conversation, everybody else start to look at them and all of them take off the bag too. Then the scene is whole in color and is not fast anymore, it is in normal speed, and the word from their T-shirt vanishes.

The scene stops and then there is an ad saying:

 You can also bring colors to other’s life....

Take your time... Take a stand

Poster

Pictures of people. (women, man, kids, teens, adults, from different parts of the world)

Each picture with a name

Each person with messages like:

  • I’m Camila and I’ve looked for help. 
  • I’m Sarah and  I don’t judge
  • I’m Jack and I really support my friend.
  • I’m Leon and I’ve feel sad but I found a friend

Message that encourage people to give help and find help

I would like to add at my proposal of the poster a final Message that would say:

And... what have you done for yourself and others?
Remember, there is always something presure coming from you...

uuhmm that's it.
