War Child

Chaptered life story – an interactive multimedia longscroll

Interactive/multimedia longread ‘Denish’


Project info: This impressive life story is told by Denish, former child soldier from Uganda. The kind of story you find in an evil children’s book. Non-fiction, that is.
 
This multimedia production has been made in close cooperation with War Child Holland. This Dutch NGO provides psychosocial support to children affected by armed conflict. Denish has been a child soldier in the civil war in Northern Uganda. He was forced to join the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) in their fight for control over the Northern part of the African country.
 
Denish’ interview was done February 2017. In 2017 War Child Holland closed the programme in Uganda after being active in the country for 12 years.
 
Watch this longscroll, or ‘chaptered life story’ on how Denish wakes up from his childhood nightmares.

Project info: Customers of ASN Bank explain why they support War Child by having a savings account “against arms industries”. The story is a combination of portrait photography, an audio interview, video and photo animation. I did both the portrait shots and the interview and turned these ingredients into a short animated web video.

Creating interactive timeline War Child Holland

Project info: War Child Holland wanted to publish the highlights of 12 years of its activities in Northern Uganda. I created an online interactive timeline allowing the visitor to go through these highlights in its own pace.
