Mace
About This Project
Continuing our successful work with Mace and the Mental Health Foundation, this video explores the lived experiences of Mace personnel and identifies different things you can do to support people.
We only had one short ‘shoot day’ and I knew we would not have much access to the participants beyond the interviews, so to make this more than just a talking heads film we used an ‘Eye Direct’ (the participants are actually talking to a reflection of me in front of the camera) which draws the viewer into the stories.
We also captured moments of introspection prior to the interviews which adds another level of emotion to the film.
