Hi guys!!

I recently joined Humane Technology, which is why I’ll introduce myself first!  
My name is Kilian, 22 years old, media student in The Netherlands. I recently started my company Clanstate Pictures, where i am to create short films addressing societal issues.

I am currently running a campaign for a short thriller addressing social media addiction. Together with a small team of local talents I want to make this film contribute to making people aware of their digital (mis)behaviour.  
Here is the link: [www.cinecrowd.com/connection-down](http://www.cinecrowd.com/connection-down)

_([Connection Down teaser](https://vimeo.com/297612292) from [Kilian](https://vimeo.com/user90459531) on [Vimeo](https://vimeo.com))_

I’ve been studying this topic for over 5 years already and the increasing dependency on smartphones has bothered me ever since. I need to make this film, and make my (and your) surroundings aware of the consequences of the addiction to our smartphones!

_Let me be clear here: I won’t earn a single penny by making this film. This is my (and our) first project and we simply want to address this issue and spread the message!_

Please support the campaign by donating a few euros/dollars/pounds, and help us make our contribution to creating a better digital environment for future generations.

Thank you so much for your help.

Kilian

Very nice teaser, @clanstatepictures! 👍

You mentioned Zombies… are you aware of our own [Awareness Program](https://github.com/humanetech-community/humanetech-community-awareness) (and our [Campaigners](http://community.humanetech.com/groups/Campaigners/messages/inbox) team, which everyone can [join](http://community.humanetech.com/t/call-for-action-join-the-humane-tech-awareness-program-from-awareness-to-cultural-awakening/2782))? One of the campaigns is called [Phone Zombies](http://community.humanetech.com/t/phone-zombies-campaign-anchoring-the-term-phone-zombies-in-common-language/2710) and we also have a number of plans to create videos as part of the [Reality Shock](https://github.com/humanetech-community/humanetech-community-awareness/tree/master/campaigns/reality-shock#deliverables) campaign.

We are not into crowdfunding (yet), but are looking to realize these campaigns through crowdsourcing and by organizing exciting [meetups](http://community.humanetech.com/t/eventful-campaign-foster-a-vibrant-meetup-culture-organize-exciting-events/3024) and [hackathons](http://community.humanetech.com/t/idea-global-awareness-hackathon-to-boost-awareness-campaigns-project-jumpstart-crowdsourcing/2800), where we may involve schools, universities and e.g. art academies and the like.

Would be great if you’d consider joining our efforts (see also our [community announcement](http://community.humanetech.com/t/who-we-are-what-we-do-and-how-you-can-help-humane-technology-too/2955) if you didn’t do so before).
