Our Pitch : “Welcome judges and thank you for joining us today and we are team 2, Abolish the L.A.W.S. Although the fate of the world portrayed within our project may seem extremely harsh and far-fetched, we as a society are much closer to this reality than most people care to think. Our mission with this project was to highlight the horrifying truth of a life under the rule of Autonomous weapons, and to convey the importance of controlling these technologies before they control us.”: “As mentioned, Mines Action Canada has tasked us with creating an emotional video that will make a connection to its viewers and illustrate the changes to the lives of civilians under the rule of Autonomous weapons. This project carries great significance as it is vital to spread awareness about these frightening technologies and make it abundantly clear that they must be destroyed.”: “To accomplish this goal our team needed to decide what ethical issueswe wanted to focus on for our project. After some team deliberation we chose the loss of civilian freedom, occupation, and accountability. To highlight these ethical issues and show the danger of these technologies we developed an emotional story that the video will follow. Our character will need to deliver vital medicine to his mother in a different unit in his apartment building, to get there our character will need to use crawl spaces, dodge targeting systems of these weapons, and use furniture as an obstacle.”: “By implementing all these design aspects we feel we have done a great job showing the drastic changes to civilian lives. When our character cannot do something as simple as walk around his place of residence or deliver medicine to his dying mother, we show how truly terrible these weapon systems are. Our project is unique and should be chosen because we put a very strong emphasis on emotionally connecting with our audience. By showing how dangerous and difficult it is to complete what seems to us like a simple yet vital task, we will strike emotions of the decision makers and force them to strive to solve this issue.”
