It's a very hard hitting message Steve. I think as far as awareness goes it's clear and to the point. But if the motivation is fundraising then that boyish smile as featured in your excellent eyegaze video is going to get people reaching for their credit cards quicker than a bleak message.
I'd like to repost the eyegaze video and wonder if you could add some donation instructions to the end credits?
I;m not sure what to say - I think that it needs something in between. There has to always be hope at least whilst highlighting the realities. The point of any marketing campaign should be twofold - raising awareness and creating a reaction i.e raising money. Your second attempt does introduce the hope but perhaps the pics dominate too much. Keep fighting. Christine
OK, should have done this two years ago when I was first diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease but better late than never. I thought it would be a good way of keeping anyone who was interested up to date with what's going on with us. Communication is getting harder and whilst I want to keep texting, emailing and chatting to everybody this seemed a good way of saying more things to more people more easily. Typing is a slow process (this has taken 20 minutes so far) so a once to many approach seemed good.
I hope to keep it up to date with various stuff including whinges about things MND related as despite trying to "keep positive" it does affect (in a generally f**ks it up kinda way)almost everything I do!
For those of you who really want to, you can check out my "status" on my web link.
Finally, PLEASE leave comments, even if brief as its the only way I know its being read!!

Impressive and hard hitting mate, but I do agree with Richard about the fundraising.
Keep it up....
