We needed to do something different if we were going to create real change. We needed to make people <\/span><b>feel <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the injustice and be <\/span><b>motivated to act<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> now.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step one: choosing anger<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it is not often used in advertising campaigns, anger could be the best emotion we have in our toolbox to drive action, especially against perceived injustice.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Firstly, it\u2019s incredibly engaging. Anger is overwhelming, it\u2019s all you can think about, focusing your attention on the problem. Secondly, psychologically speaking it\u2019s an \u2018approach-motivated emotion\u2019 . Anger isn\u2019t like other unpleasant emotions that make you want to run or hide to get away from them. Anger makes you want to act to fight the injustice. Finally, we could channel it\u2019s power positively &#8211; as long as we offered an obvious way to \u2018right the wrong\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So a new creative idea was born \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www,heygirls.co.uk\/seeingred\">Seeing Red<\/a> \u2013 a campaign <\/span><b>scientifically designed to make you so angry about period poverty you felt compelled to help by buying Hey Girls products<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step two: using science to make you angry<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making a film about such a visceral feeling as anger, you have to trust your gut. Bu<\/span>t we wanted to also be led by science. Every creative decision, from music to casting to script, was made in consultation with Dr. Philip Gable, Associate Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Delaware, to ensure we were doing everything we could to increase anger scientifically.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-61210 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/10.png\" alt=\"Seeing Red Hey Girls Blog Post\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few of the anger insights Dr. Philip helped us with in the film:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>1. Make anger the only emotion we create<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><b>Avoiding Fear<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; angry faces to camera make us feel threatened and scared. Vulnerable faces to camera give us something to be angry about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Avoiding Disgust<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; blood on it\u2019s own can evoke disgust. But when used in the relevant way and with purpose behind it, it can create anger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Avoiding Sex Appeal<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; it\u2019s uncomfortable, but the kneejerk reaction to girl\u2019s knickers is erotic, not angry. We had to be careful with how much we showed, and the context it was in.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>2. Maximise anger <span style=\"font-size: 18.72px;\">subconsciously<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><b>With colour: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using red as much as possible, as psychologically it evokes a sense of hunger and drive.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>With flashes of patronisation: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Few things make the blood boil like being patronised &#8211; so we included quick symbols of patronising men to intensify the anger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>With instructions onscreen:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Originally, we had used an inhale\/exhale instruction, turning meditation apps that were designed to make you calmer upside down. But exhaling physically relaxes the body. Inhaling raises the heart rate, giving you fuel to get angry. We removed exhalations in the film, leaving viewers with no release from their building emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>3. Weaponising empathy to maximise anger<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more vulnerable our main character was, the more motivated our audience would be to want to help them, and the more angry they would be on their behalf.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step three: building anger into every frame<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each stage of the creative process was carefully designed to promote maximum anger. Our director, Margot, created a powerful visual world mixing emotional close-ups of characters with hand-drawn elements inspired by online zines to give everything a visceral feel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-61205 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/5-5.png\" alt=\"Seeing Red Hey Girls Blog Post\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our colourist Jax, infected the whole film with a vibrant colour palette to intensify emotions. And this was all sound tracked with an original song composition by Esther and sound design from Ant purpose built to make people as angry as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the most important objective was making people as angry as possible, we also felt very strongly that this film should be inclusive of all those who struggle with period poverty. We worked closely with our trans actor, Robbie, to ensure the scene felt authentic and representative of his experiences as a trans man.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-61216 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/4-2.png\" alt=\"Seeing Red Hey Girls Blog Post\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Step four: testing your anger<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We didn\u2019t stop there. We tested three variations of our main film with our audience, to check that it was really making people angrier, and motivated to help. The film was a great success, with research proving that women were four times angrier after watching the film, and men three times angrier. Not only that, but we proved that the more intense they found the film, and the angrier they were, the stronger their desire to take action and buy Hey Girls products was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We hope the film makes you angry. We hope it makes you feel compelled to act. We hope you choose Hey Girls. Because if everyone switched to Hey Girls, period poverty in this country would end overnight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-61218 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-4.png\" alt=\"Seeing Red Hey Girls Blog Post\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>How can I support the campaign?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>You can get involved by sharing our campaign on social and flying the flag for\u00a0<b>#SeeingRed<\/b>!\u00a0 You can\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/campaign\/seeing-red-campaign\/\">donate<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/campaign\/seeing-red-campaign\/\">subscribe to our emails<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sandbox.heygirls.co.uk\/wp\/shop\/\">shop our campaign merch<\/a>.
