This is MTV EXIT’s first forray into animation: a stunning piece of socially-minded animation from JM Animation Studio, telling the story of one girl’s descent into human trafficking and the overlap with the various people involved in the ring. There are 3 parts, with a total run time of 25 mins – well worth your time (not to mention the fact that the soundtrack’s provided by Radiohead). Share and comment on how effective a means of raising awareness/storytelling you think it is.
More wordless panels for you, plus a shout to MTV Exit for sticking a link to our Borderland Comics site on their Facebook page. Also, be sure to check out daily developments on my upcoming Knight Journalism Fellowship via the Knight Project tab above. Plus you can now access individual comics via a handy drop-down menu by hovering over the said tabs – checkout the US Foreign Policy one to see what I’m talking about. Eagle-eyed Archcomix visitors will notice the new newsletter field on the left – add your email address and stay abreast of all future Archcomix rumblings. Big thanks to the tireless work of Stanford CS Senior Alex Easton for his help in making the said changes.
New here? Go to the start of the wordless comic above here. You can order a copy of my latest comic on human trafficking here – now at 18% of our total goal, so dig deep in those pockets and help us raise awareness of the plight of human trafficking victims. Thanks to those who already have.
