This 60 second piece of content was part of a larger overarching campaign from the Scottish Government that aimed to bring the problem of human trafficking into the public consciousness, and help people understand that it could be happening in their neighbourhood.
The project was an eye-opening experience, and naturally a very sensitive research process. It was important to tackle the subject without stereotyping the traditional perception of trafficked victims, therefore the creative used reflections to keep anonymity, whilst following the journey of a social worker going to the aid of a victim. Subtle, powerful and thought provoking, the client said, 'The project has been a pleasure to work on', and hopefully has brought trafficking into the social conscious of Scotland.
