Abstract
This study aims to enhance understanding and awareness of acne treatment strategies, specifically focusing on the employment of antibiotics within Thailand. To achieve this, the research introduces innovative character designs that symbolize the role of antibiotics in combating acne. Given the widespread recognition and prevalence of acne, utilizing characters for educational purposes offers an effective means to visually communicate treatment methods. The motivation behind this investigation stems from a desire to contribute valuable insights for individuals seeking information on acne management. The research commenced with an extensive review of existing literature and consultations with a dermatologist. This foundational work informed the creation of unique characters, ingeniously integrating personality traits with specific geometric shapes and colors that echo the properties of antibiotics used in acne treatment. These characters were then presented to dermatologists to gather critical feedback on the effectiveness and accuracy of the information portrayed through the motion graphics. This approach not only facilitates a deeper understanding of acne treatment options but also leverages the power of visual storytelling to educate and engage audiences.
