For our final project in Writing 220, we took our repurposed project and recreated it in a different form of media. I decided to take my short story and turn it into a public service announcement for schizophrenia awareness. After writing as a character with schizophrenia, I felt personally connected to the issue and wanted to learn more about it’s presence in reality, not only my story. I had done some research into how to write in the voice of a schizophrenic, but I wanted to look at specific case studies and pass that information onto others in the popular form of a YouTube video.
My proposal, initial video draft, and final video are all linked in the tabs below with short descriptions for each.
