Mind Client Brief

Who are they, what have they done?

The client’s name is mind and mind is a charity organisation that helps people in the UK with mental health. In the past the mental health organisation has done lots of different charity campaigns like the ‘do one thing’ campaign which was made to inspire people to try something new to help get them out of a mental health problem that they may be having. Another charity event they have thrown was the ‘ourbluexmas’ charity event in 2017 which was made to help people have a nice Christmas no matter what how much money they had and help protect people who weren’t well-equipped to take on the cold weather at Christmas time.

When did they start and who do they help?

Mind was first created with NAMH (National Association for mental health) in 1946 and has been helping people all around the UK and some bits of Wales. Mind has been around for a very long time and is considered to be one of the best Mental health organisations to get help for mental health issues in the UK in 2021. And Like I said in a previous paragraph of this brief they have done a lot of charity campaigns to help with not just mental health but with physical health of people all around the UK.


On Minds Official website they talk about campaigning for the idea that anybody between the ages 11 to 25 to have complete help with mental health along with pushing for a reform of the outdated mental health act and also pushing to change the benefits system for people suffering with depression and other mental illnesses like it.

The smile campaign is a campaign made by Mind that is all about reducing stress in people all around the UK through smiling and I have been asked to create a podcast about helping reduce stress and promotional video that can act as an advert for Mind and the smile campaign to help people either get help or to just help someone perhaps relax in their lives and lying to take time off work or the things that are making them feel super stressful and start to enjoy things that they like or explore new things that can make them smile.

Smile campaign cast and crew

The image below shows a cast and crew of the smile campaign advert for mind. This was made as to plan out who will be involved in the production process of the advert. This image below is the meeting minute for my smile campaign project. The reason I have done this is to show that maintaining contact and communication with the cast and crew is very important so I made a meeting minute discussing peoples roles in the production.

Smile campaign rationale

In the past the company mind has done many campaigns such as the ourbluexmas campaign which was targeted at helping people at Christmas time when it comes to weather and food and the do one thing charity which was made to help inspire people to do one thing for someone that makes them feel better. For the smile campaign I think I will in a way combine these kinds of campaigns together as smile is all about seeking help from mind and also letting people know that it’s ok to take breaks in order to get your mental health better. Stress is usually is a temporary feeling that usually doesn’t last long (acute stress) and stress is mostly comes from one situation or problem which the victim of said stress fixes or slowly goes away there is a sense of relief and calmness which is why I think my advert is good for smile campaign as it shows all of the stages of what someone dealing with stress has to deal with.   The assignment is to create a Advertisement for mind which is to help reduce stre

Smile campaign post production diary

  In postproduction I began by gathering all my clips onto premiere pro by using Google Drive as I had filmed all of my clips on my iphone 11. After this I used and MP3 downloader to download my song I would be using in the background of my advert which is heavenly father by Bon Iver. Once I began editing I used effects such as exponential fade which would help me gradually bring up the music at the beginning of the ad along with using the affect film dissolve which left me fade from black my beginning video clip. I believe this feed from black using the film dissolve is better than the video just starting with the clip unedited as it gives it more of a professional looking ad as it lets the viewer slowly into the ad along with the slow music. Whilst editing at some point in the edit having no diagenetic sound felt weird and A natural to watch so for the clips of me sitting down at my table you can hear my chair squeak and when I type on the keyboard you can hear the typing not louder
