We have many interesting topics to discuss with Mental Health First Aid, but what matters most is producing a video that connects emotionally.

The strategy was to simplify and normalise the stigma of mental health by asking the audience if they knew what to do if a friend, workmate, or family friend confided in them about mental health issues they may be experiencing. A conversation may save a life.

The campaign ran for 6 weeks across paid digital channels.

I contributed to one of two bespoke animated films in the campaign.

The Ups and Downs video contributed to 12,959 completed video views over the 6-week campaign.

To date, Mental Health First Aid have trained over 1 million Australians, with an ambition to train 1 in 10 by 2030.
