This capstone project aimed to explore the impact of behavioral and social stress on the mental well-being of early adolescents in the Philippines. The study highlighted the high prevalence of behavioral and emotional problems among Filipino children and emphasized the need for increased access to mental health services.

Sleep is critical, particularly for young adults aged 18 to 25. Young adults should get at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night. Most young adults struggle to get enough sleep due to a variety of factors such as anxiety, depression, and excessive use of technology. As a result of continuing the same sleepless night routine in their daily lives, young adults become sleep deprived. The most common side effects of sleep deprivation are health issues such as heart disease, obesity, kidney failure, high blood pressure, and many more. Since this issue is very timely and relevant nowadays, the researchers develop a major project, an 2D Animated Interactive Video, and a minor project, a Podcast that can help young adults to be relaxed in order to get a better sleep. The 2D animated interactive video will present two environments from which users can choose. It will be uploaded to a Wix site, and each option will be unlisted so that users can interact with the animated video. The podcast, on the other hand, will be storytelling that is related to the story of the major project. It will consist of four episodes excluding the pilot episode. This project will also be uploaded to YouTube for easy and free access.

Mental health is more than the presence or absence of a mental illness. COVID-19 has led to self and social isolation, disconnection from family and friends. More people than ever are experiencing feelings of helplessness, isolation, grief, anxiety, and depression. In such cases, the team took advantage of the opportunity to raise mental health awareness by developing a trilogy of interactive short films with a website that would support the project’s purpose. The film has three characters with different stories, namely Marion; a college student who is struggling to adjust to his new average experience from his online class and Kayla; a nurse who is also a mother of three children, who must participate in treating the patients with COVID at the hospital, and Marie; an OFW who works from Saudi Arabia wants to go home to visit her family. The study also intends to explore the impact of coping strategies and perceived social support on one’s ability to handle social isolation stress. Each of the characters' stories will represent the different outlook on possible mental health symptoms that everyone has experienced during the pandemic. The stories presented in the film will be based on real-life circumstances and experiences of people who have lived through the pandemic. The story aims to give hope to its viewers on what lies ahead of the pandemic. Upon testing the produced output, the study results show that most people only have a general idea when it comes to the topic of mental health issues. The study also yielded that the project has spread and increased awareness about the topic under study. Although the project could attain its specific goals and adjectives, the best and only conclusion is to seek professional help from credible and trusted experts in their respective health fields.

Visionary Studios took advantage of creating an approach to promoting and preserving these rich Philippine legends through a form of an interactive animation film. Mitolohiya adapts the story about the origin of The First Coconut Tree and the Creation of Man, using two-dimensionl characters with three-dimensional textured environments.

This animation film is created to promote and preserve Philippine myths about Tagalog gods & goddesses through an interactive hybrid animation format. Overall, the preliminary data shows that most of the participants were not familiar with the adapted Tagalog myth in the film however, after watching the interactive film, most of the respondents gave positive feedback to the overall film's animation, design, aesthetic, story, and website. According to the data, the animation and interactivity of the film makes it more engaging for the viewers which shows that the use of the interactive hybrid animation and website is effective in promoting Philippine Tagalog mythology. It is highly recommended to give further research about the different legends and stories within the Tagalog pantheon. Due to the large variety of characters, the possibility of creating numerous adaptations can also be suggested.
