Who made this clip?
The result of a collaboration between the OFPP and the Army Digital Media Center (CMA), the video was produced in 2024 by the Zurich company Vaudeville Studios GmbH, selected following a competitive tender. .
-The spot tells the story of a stylized mermaid who lives on a roof. The mermaid braves the elements throughout the seasons, until the first Wednesday in February, the day she enters the stage, where she gives the best of herself during her performance, writes the OFSPP. The last part introduces the Alertswiss application.
The animation was produced in four languages, German, French, Italian and English, with subtitles, in order to reach as many people as possible. The film will be broadcast on television channels subject to the obligation to broadcast and can also be viewed on social networks as well as the OFPP website. (jah/ with ats)
