TVC 60

Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) has a new series of community service announcements which include TV / Radio / Print ads. The ads are designed to create awareness about autism spectrum disorders. This is the 60 second version which simply tries to visually show what it might be like to have autism while drawing the viewer through the music specially written for Aspect.

Austim is so big now and everyone has an idea about what it is. I would have liked to see a TVC on breakthroughs and what is being done to support individauls. I found the TVC very uninformative and a bit boring and thats just my opinion

nicely put. I have not been diagnosed with autism (although I may well be an Aspie) but both my children are on the spectrum and this is how I think they see things - the way you have described. I, too, look at the details, not the big picture, and I think this would have been far more realistic.

I have autism, and this is not at all like what I experience. If you wanted to duplicate the visual experience, it would be a matter of focusing on little details. For example, have someone talking, and focus the camera on their interesting necklace instead of their eyes. Zoom in close on a pebble with sparkling crystals on it. Light on the water, the petals of a flower... We're detail people, in general, though every autistic is different.
