quem partiu é
amor de alguém
Opening and closing vignettes for an awareness action by the Vigília Silenciosa movement, about COVID-19 and the people behind the numbers: "those who left were someone's love." A project where the animation needed, above all, to be gentle.

Process
Designing with care.
one
A delicate brief
This wasn't a piece about statistics; it was about people, and the people who loved them. Every design choice started from respect: for the grief, for the families, for the weight of the moment.
two
Restraint as language
Open sky, handwritten script, soft movement and room to breathe. Animation working at a whisper, framing the action's message instead of competing with it.
three
Two bookends
The opening prepares the viewer; the closing lets them rest. Together they hold the action's content like a frame, giving the campaign a beginning and an end made with the same care.
Outcome
It reached far beyond the room.
where
National Museum, Brasília
The action took place at the National Museum in Brasília — a public space at the heart of the capital, chosen so the grief it named couldn't be looked away from.
reach
National press coverage
The vigil was covered by media outlets across the country, carrying the message far past the people who could be there in person.
still
Still available
The full film remains online on YouTube, so the action keeps doing its work — a record of the people behind the numbers.
