Ramkumar Babu 1 Aishwarya Ramkumar Babu Professor Celestine English 1302 8 May 2024 Heal the Nation: A Story for Universal Healthcare for the US – Artist Statement For my PSA project, I advocated for universal healthcare in the United States, aiming to inform and persuade viewers of the importance of accessible healthcare for all citizens. Rhetorically, my goal was to appeal to a broad audience by framing healthcare as a fundamental human right. I crafted a message using pathos that emphasized compassion and equity. Materially, I opted for a multimedia approach, blending statistics and compelling narratives to engage viewers on both an intellectual and emotional level. Drawing inspiration from successful advocacy campaigns, I prioritized simplicity and clarity in design, utilizing accessible language and relatable imagery to facilitate understanding and retention. Methodologically, I approached the project with a comprehensive understanding of the healthcare system and its impact on individuals and communities. Leveraging my background in research and communication, I conducted extensive analysis to identify critical arguments and strategies for promoting universal healthcare. Technologically, I employed various digital tools and platforms to produce and distribute the PSA through animation and video editing software to reach a broad audience. While navigating technical challenges and constraints, such as the Animaker website deleting my progress, I prioritized innovation and perseverance to overcome obstacles and deliver a polished and professional final product.
