CDC ‘Inside Knowledge’ - Ana

When The CDC came to us with the opportunity to share personal stories of female cancer survivors in the hopes of educating on women's health, we knew this was a very special project.

Each moment and experience was very real and very different, but also somehow alike. To create a unified message, we began crafting these stories by audio recording their experiences first hand. We wanted the emotion to translate as authentically and personally as possible. So we set off to carefully weave these personal stories and feelings by way of visual metaphors and fluid moments.

Throughout the entire design process, we curated our approach to ensure that the visuals resonated with the stories seamlessly. The incredible challenges, strengths and stories these women have to offer is a testimony to their survival while offering an important message surrounding women's health on an even larger scale. We were so thankful to be the ones to help tell those tales.
