Chairman of the Mahindra Group, Anand Mahindra, recently took to Twitter to share an inspiring video clip which aimed at helping people to find “meaning and values” in lockdown. A nationwide lockdown has been imposed across India which is set to be lifted on May 3. The short ‘concept video’ uses visual effects to play with letters to present the positive aspect of life during the lockdown.
Optimistic perspective
In the video, many words and phrases have been reimagined with an optimistic perspective. For instance, the word 'alone' is replaced by 'all one', 'social distancing' with 'social dancing' and 'isolation' with 'solidarity.' amidst others. The little over a minute clip does not use “celebrity speak”, "images” or any other fancy thing but only uses typography to tell “how to find ourselves”. Since posted, the video has received 112.4 thousand views and 7.7 thousand likes and hundreds of retweets.
I’ve seen so many videos & messages & quotes about finding meaning & value in the lockdown. Without any voice-over, without celebrity-speak, without any pictures, this video brilliantly tells us how to find ourselves... Have a great weekend. pic.twitter.com/eVpDRL7uFz
