A 90-second video titled ‘A Different Brilliant’ was created by Autism Spectrum Australia, an organization looking to shine a positive light on how people look at autism within the community. With the help of Baz Luhrmann’s cinematographer Damian Wyvill, the video looks at the stories of seven individuals with autism of all ages with different strengths and abilities.
In Australia, it is estimated that one in 100 children is diagnosed with autism. To promote the video, Autism Spectrum Australia is asking people to tweet the video out using the hashtag #adifferentbrilliant.
