Description

Cooperative Project - Food Angel

Veggie and Grandma

Food Angel rescues edible surplus food from different sectors of the food industry that would otherwise be disposed of as waste. Following strict safety protocols, the rescued food items will then be prepare as nutritious hot meals and be redistributed to serve the underprivileged communities in Hong Kong.

The aim of this project is to recruit more volunteers to Food Angel, through a promotional video. Digital Media students made this two-minute animation, which demonstrates the volunteer duties in Food Angel, as well as a glimpse of some difficulties of underprivileged people.

This animation started with a poor elderly woman meeting a crying vegetable, Veggie. They were both facing their own problems but that could be fixed if they help each other. By understanding this situation, the Food Angel icon, “Rice Boy” showed up. He offers a solution and leads them to a happy conclusion.

**********************************

無耆不有

SOW Asia was founded in 2009, and is a charitable foundation based in Hong Kong that supports enterprises intent on scaling their social and/or environment impact through financial investments. The project goal is to raise the public’s awareness of elderly issues nowadays in Hong Kong, demonstrate social impacts created by SOW Asia and social enterprise alumni that are especially related to silver-age businesses, and encourage young people to understand the development of social enterprises in Hong Kong.

Design Outcome

In the three-minute video, students created a story about a young entrepreneur who faces difficulty and frustration at supporting the elderly. The young entrepreneur creates assistive tools for the elderly for different needs and situations but is unsuccessful. In the end, SOW Asia assists him to get the business back on track.

Cooperative Project - Christian Family Service Centre, Centre for Adolescent Mental Health Prevention and Intervention

Visible Heart

The Centre for Adolescent Mental Health Prevention and Intervention was set up in 2011 to provide one-stop services for adolescents with mental health concerns.

This project aims to promote positive messages to the target audience, and raise awareness to children and adolescents who are struggling with different mental and emotional issues.

Students produced three short animation clips - Sadness of Glass, Anger of Steel and Fear of Ink, which was represented by the shape of the heart to show different stages of emotions.

The videos aim to share different mental health issues and also to encourage young people to care for, understand and accompany their peers and those in need, and bring positivity into their lives.
