The brief

During the COVID surge, CRA needed a national awareness piece on responsible technology use in lockdown — curbing misinformation, protecting personal data during remote work, keeping kids safe online.

The film had three weeks from commission to broadcast. We scripted, designed, animated, and delivered in parallel Arabic/English tracks, with versioned edits for TV, social, and in-app messaging.

How we worked

01Triage scripting

Started with the highest-risk behaviour first.

02Parallel tracks

AR and EN voice, illustration, and animation ran in lockstep, not sequential.

03Screen-first

Designed for phone-in-hand viewing. Typography sized to survive messaging-app compression.

04Ship in stages

Released in three waves to keep the topic in the feed for six weeks.
