Sensory Overload
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Film Advertising Crafts / Sound Design for Film Advertising / 2015
The Autism spectrum is vast. No two people with the condition are the same, so communicating how they feel is extremely difficult. Sensory sensitivity is something that affects the majority of those with Autism. To create a greater understanding of the issue, Grand Central Recording Studios made full use of their creative licence in this film. The dynamic spot recreates the auditory world of a young boy on the autistic spectrum, manipulating the ambient sounds of the home and transforming them into a cacophonous rhythm, more attuned to what he hears.
