Brief Explanation
To keep hope alive, we literally brought the original posters of six long-term missing children to life.
Using a 3D mask technique, we brought natural movement to the pictures, from eye movements and blinking to larger movements and facial quirks.
Turning these mostly ignored portraits into gripping confrontations on social media and digital billboards.
The moving pictures were spread via hundreds of digital billboards in major train stations and subway stations. By adding sudden movement to the original posters we surprised people and made them pay attention these children again. Child Focus normally uses normal posters to spread messages. By choosing digital billboards and adding sudden movement to the old pictures, we created something that's never been done before, using the strength of this medium.
Viewers were directed to a separate webpage for each missing child, where they could read more about the disappearances and also share the search messages.
