A For Acceptance

Date: 09/10/09
I have decided to focus my project this year on Autisim.
I have included a short DVD to describe why and how I have chosen this very emotive subject.



What is Autism?

I often get very confused by people’s misconceptions of what autism is? If I had a £1 for every time someone said to me “isn’t that about The Rain Man and been able to count vast numbers?” I would be very rich.

Some autistic people have qualities like Dustin Hoffman in The Rain Man film, but many others do not.

I have included some detailed information to clarify certain points. How it particularly affects me will be highlighted in my animated feature.
