Listen to children from different backgrounds share their unique experiences of the autistic spectrum in their own words.
We started this project back in 2017 by asking parents of autistic children to interview their kids and share their answers with us. The questions and parents’ guide were put together with the help of the lovely people at ADD-vance Trust in Hertfordshire. We had hoped to create a whole series with the interviews, but unfortunately our Kickstarter campaign didn’t reach its goal, so we decided to do a single animation instead. It was hard (and kind of painful) to have to condense hours of precious insights into just 5 short minutes.
A big shout out to everyone who donated on our GoFundMe campaign – we really appreciate your support! Thanks to you we got some lovely original music, a world-class producer and a super-talented editor on board to make this animation even more special.
