I am an experienced video journalist passionate about making complex topics accessible and engaging through compelling multimedia storytelling. Focused on social and environmental issues, I produce various video formats on a wide range of topics, specialising in impactful explainer videos with motion graphics and stop-motion animation.
During my studies in cinema, English literature and journalism, I’ve gained experience in radio, television, and print across Switzerland. After working with the Locarno Film Festival’s image & sound team, I joined SWI swissinfo.ch in 2018 to produce local and international reportages.
Navigating this strange new reality can sometimes be difficult. Experts are warning of increasing depression and anxiety among various age groups. Last spring the pandemic swept across the globe turning daily routines upside down, and we decided to reach out to our readers to compile a series of videos showing glimmers of positivity amid the uncertainty.
One year later, the restrictions haven’t been lifted for good yet and people have had to adjust to new routines. We thought it’d be interesting to get back in touch with our readership to see how people have been coping with this new normality. We asked them to share the strategies they’ve come up with to keep a positive mindset on a long-term basis.
Here are the episodes we created, combining all your tips that we received. Watch it, share it, and be inspired! In you want your story to feature, send a video, or pictures and voice message, to celine.stegmueller@swissinfo.ch
