A story of young love in lockdown
Branded / Public Health England
As Covid restriction began to ease, Public Health England wanted to create a film that implored young people to continue to socialise online.
The result was the animated short, Love is Key; which follows a young man who appears to be breaking the rules for a hookup. The film was awash with subtle detail, with every single frame having multiple covid related messages.
Love is Key broke from the COVID messaging trend of shocking young audiences with the terrible consequences of bad behaviour.
Instead we looked to reinforce good behaviour with a positive story, by highlighting the things that many young people were already doing.
The animated film was loaded with cultural easter eggs and hidden messaging that looked to encourage good behaviour amongst an audience who were already feeling misunderstood and attacked.
