Everyone hears silence differently, especially people experiencing tinnitus have a unique ringing tone in their ears.
​
This led me to the campaign line – This is My Silence.
​
Idea: When you’re alone the noise of tinnitus is just a single note, only when you come together and share your “silence” you can become part of the harmony.
​
Execution: After asking a variety of people with tinnitus to hum the tone they hear; we collected a bunch of non-harmonic tinnitus tones. I challenged my composer to create a melody using these, which then become the music of the commercial I directed.
This is My Silence
RESPONSE
“This is My Silence” film started an organic hashtag movement on social media during tinnitus awareness week where people started sharing their “silences”. The commercial sparked conversation and was picked up by BBC One Morning Live show.
It also got nominated to ‘New Emerging Talent’ at the Berlin Commercial Awards in 2021.
