“Captivated” Social Anxiety Awarness Animated Illustrations By Dzejlana Duvnjak

The core of my graduation project is to spread awareness and make people who don’t suffer from such disorder to pay close attention to it. Because, nowadays it isn’t treated as serious as it is . A lot of people confuse it with shyness but its far from that. As someone who has struggled with social anxiety , I understand firsthand the difficulties that come with it, as well as the misunderstandings that others may hold that make it much more difficult to deal with. The more people who suffer from social anxiety and others who may learn about it, the better.So, with adolescents being my target group,I did deep research in order to discover how do other anxious individuals feel. Wich led me to conclusion that a lot of them feel like they don’t fit anywhere and don’t know how to explain their condition to others. Speaking of that, I made motion graphic awareness animation, wich would present their inner struggles and the chaotic battles they fight on daily basis that are invisible to others.
