Presentation day

Today is the day where we present our ideas and thankfully it went well. Just before the presentation starts, I tried searching for infos if there's any recent cases of missing child and good thing nothing turns up. Well hopefully. Anyway, this is what I presented; my proposed idea and it titled "Missing Alert".

Execution Method

Since both my ideas can be placed at the same location, that is a mirror and a toilet door,  I thought of combining it as a piece of art. Of course, it is both separated design and placed opposite but easier for the audience to see the connection. Also, it can both be made with the same shape.

One side is shown the door and the other is the mirror. As for the door, I thought of doing it lenticular. Instead of doing it 3D lenticular, I'm doing it in a zig zag pattern images, which is two images in different angle of the same plane. However, more research on how it can be done is needed. 

Example of two side images

makezine.com (2009)

The door with two angles…. where image 1 can be seen by adult and image 2 can be seen at children height.

Image 1 is a smiling stranger but has a knife holding on, to show don't trust any stranger while image 2 is a message to kids, the candy looks nice but the person -evil looking stranger- giving it is scary.

 On the other hand, the mirror is placed at the lower side is because that's about the average kids height.

To make both of it stand, I would propose to use stereofoam at the bottom to keep them stand.

Proposed solution - Ambient Media-

       Regarding the info in the previous post, something had to be done to open the eyes of parents in keep in their child in safe security. Hence, I have proposed some ways to remind parents -mothers especially- to always keep their child at sight and to also remind them of the missing child case can happen to anyone.

My first idea is to recreate a missing child poster on the mirror for kids in the toilet, which on the section where the missing child is attached, that will be the mirror. Hence, when a child is washing their hands, the mirror will be replaced with the child's reflection and it will look as if the child is the missing kid. It is something that to remind parents that they wouldn't want their child's turn in that poster.

A simple sketch to get the idea imaginable - The whole piece is the mirror itself and the poster can be like a sticker (printed media)

Second idea is to give out the message using the door of the family toilet. There will have a scary looking man giving out something. From the parents point of view, the man will be holding onto a knife, like threatening them. Otherwise, from the children point of view, it will seems like the guy is giving out lollipop / candy. A slight message for the parent to teach their child not to trust strangers.

Inspiration from:

A lenticular printing ad created by ANAR foundation that gives different messages to different audience. In a certain angle, people will see the normal side of the child. However in a lower angle, the people -mostly kids- will see the bruised boy.

The rough side view and the different images depending on the angle looking it from.

*Both ideas are accepted*
