Description

This project aims to address, explain and analyze the severe social problem of the
widespread use of plastics. Society is increasingly concerned about the ecological
impact of plastics and their threat to food safety and public health. Microplastics,
among other things, are everywhere, found in Marine environments, living things,
salt, and even the human body. However, there are currently no effective technical
methods to treat and remove microplastics from the environment. Public attitudes are,
therefore, critical to reducing plastic emissions. The project targets Chinese consumers
and aims to reduce people's use of plastic through videos and to make alternative
products. The authors conducted the project through research, literature analysis and
case studies, stop-motion animation, user scenarios, and user testing. The advantages
and disadvantages of video communication and products are analyzed, and finally,
the combination of video communication and products is chosen to solve the research
problem. In addition, the paper also examines the shortcomings of the design results
and research prospects.
