The Design

About Not Always Fun Hysbyseb Print

Nod yr ymgyrch hysbysebu yw codi ymwybyddiaeth am syndrom Harlequin. Mae hwn yn syndrom sy'n effeithio ar y system nerfol awtonomig ac mae'n gysylltiedig ag absenoldeb chwysu a fflysio croen ar un ochr i'r wyneb. Datblygodd yr asiantaeth ddarluniau gweledol allweddol sy’n seiliedig ar gyfosodiad y gwahanol gynrychioliadau o harlequin gyda’r nod o daflu goleuni ar y gwahaniaeth rhwng cynrychiolaeth doniol y cymeriad a realiti byw gyda syndrom Harlequin, gan bwysleisio’r angen am well dealltwriaeth ac ymwybyddiaeth o y cyflwr.

Production Technology
Meticulously crafted illustration is all it is used to achieve the final result.
Design Challenge
The creative is a juxtaposition of the two opposing sides of Harlequin - one is the light-hearted comical character and the other is the serious medical condition. To integrate those sides of the same character yet different characteristics and not ironize or victimize people suffering from the syndrome was the most difficult part.
Research
The main research that was held was about the Harlequin syndrome itself and how rare diseases are addressed.
Inspiration
The key visual illustrations are based on the juxtaposition of the different representations of the word harlequin aiming to shed light on the disparity between the comical representation of the harlequin character and the reality of living with Harlequin syndrome, emphasizing the need for greater understanding and awareness of the condition.
Project Duration
The project was developed during the first trimester of 2023.
