Breast cancer: Prevention is the cure
By Ari | Oct 15, 08 05:31 PM
I did some animation work a while back for a documentary called No Family History by filmmaker Sabrina McCormick. Unfortunately the animations didn't make the cut; the film has been restructured into more of an advocacy piece about the need to focus on prevention in the fight against breast cancer, and so it no longer required animated explanations of chemotherapy and other scientific details of cancer and its treatment. (Prrrrobably for the best, all things considered. They were pretty technical.)
Sabrina's written a piece about the film and the prevention approach for MediaRights, where Shira used to work. Check it out: Reframing the Fight: Why Prevention is the Cure for Breast Cancer. We can't wait to see the film - keep an eye out for it!
