The informational videos would animated in the style shown here. Basically, it is a single line that can turn into anything.

OPEN ON A SHOT OF A SINGLE LINE MAN WALKING ALONG IN HIS SINGLE LINE UNIVERSE.

VO: Hey there.

SINGLE LINE MAN (SLM) TILTS HIS HEAD TOWARD THE CAMERA, SHRUGS AND NODS. HE STOPS.

VO: Can I ask you a personal question?

SLM CONSIDERS IT AND NODS AGAIN.

VO: Are you at risk for HIV?

SLM SLAPS HIS HANDS ONTO HIS EARS AND VOCALIZES A SORT OF 'LA-LA-LA-LA-LA I-CAN'T HEAR YOU' SOUND. HE BEGINS TO WALK AWAY.

VO: Wait a second...

SLM STOPS THE 'LA-LA-LA'-ING AND FACES THE CAMERA, HANDS ON HIPS. HE POINTS ACCUSINGLY AT THE CAMERA. SLM MORPHS INTO A FIRE AND BRIMSTONE PREACHER, SERMONIZING AWAY (ALL OF SLM'S VOCALIZATIONS ARE ALL VARIATIONS OF THE 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH'). HE 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH'S, MIMICING A PREACHER.

VO: No, I'm not hear to preach at you...

SLM MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF. HE POINTS BACK AT THE CAMERA AND MORPHS INTO A JUDGE BEHIND A JUDICIAL BENCH, BANGING HIS GAVEL, 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH'-ING.

VO: No, I'm not hear for that either. I just want to give you some facts.

SLM MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF AND FACES THE CAMERA BUT HE LOOKS SKEPTICAL. HE GLANCES AT HIS WATCH.

VO: I promise. Just the facts.

SLM MORPHS INTO A POLICE OFFICER. HE 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH-NYAH'S THE FIRST FEW BARS OF THE DRAGNET THEME. HE QUICKLY MORPHS BACK TO HIMSELF AND GIGGLES A BIT.

VO: I'll take that as a yes. Where to begin? Well, for starters, a lot of guys forget that there are detectable symptoms when someone first gets HIV.

SLM MORPHS INTO A QUESTION MARK MAN.

VO: Symptoms of a recent HIV infection may include fever, fatigue, rash, swollen tonsils or lymph nodes, sore throat, headache, joint or muscle aches, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting and night sweats.

THROUGHOUT THE ABOVE VO, SLM MIMICS EACH SYMPTOM. AT THE END OF THE LIST OF SYMPTOMS SLM PAUSES FOR A SECOND AND STARTS TO PANIC. HE BEGINS TO PACE BACK AND FORTH, NERVOUSLY 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH'-ING.

VO: Hold on. These symptoms could just mean you have the flu or mono or strep throat. It doesn't necessarily mean you have HIV.

SLM MORPHS INTO THE WORD 'NECESSARILY?' HE MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF, STILL ANXIOUS, ARMS CROSSED, FEET TAPPING.

VO: Not necessarily but the truth is: You can't tell the difference....

SLM MORPHS INTO JUST HIS FACE. HE IS NERVOUSLY SWEATING.

VO: ...and neither can we.

SLM BURIES HIS HEAD INTO HIS HANDS.

VO: The only way to know for certain if these symptoms are due to HIV infection is to get tested for HIV.

SLM TURNS INTO A CALENDAR. MONTHS START PEELING OFF HIM.

VO: No, you don't have to wait a couple of months. There's a new test: The RNA test.

SLM MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF; HE IS LOOKING AT THE CAMERA, HOPEFUL.

VO: See, most HIV tests only test for the HIV antibodies.

SLM LOOKS CONFUSED. HE MIMICS THAT 'IT'S GONE OVER HIS HEAD', VOCALIZING A 'NYAH'.

VO: When someone contracts HIV, it can take their body a few months to develop the anti-bodies. So if you get the test before you've developed the antibodies, the test will come back...

SLM MORPHS INTO A BIG 'NEGATIVE' SIGN INSIDE A CIRCLE.

VO: The RNA test finds the actual HIV virus within one to two weeks after infection. You could know if you had HIV a lot sooner!

SLM MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF AND SMILES, RELIEVED. HOWEVER, HIS RELIEF SLOWLY TURNS BACK TO ANXIOUSNESS. HE BEGINS TO SHAKE IS HEAD 'NO'; HE BEGINS TO VOCALIZE 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH' AGAIN. HE CLAPS HIS HANDS OVER HIS EARS AND STARTS THE 'NYAH-NYAH-NYAH-I CAN'T-HEAR-YOU' BIT.

VO: I know that you might be scared to take the test. No one wants to get told they have HIV.

SLM MORPHS INTO THE WORD 'DUH!' HE QUICKLY MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF SITTING ON THE GROUND, HIS ARMS HOLDING HIS CHEST, ROCKING BACK AND FORTH TRYING TO SOOTHE HIMSELF.

VO: But knowing is important. If you know sooner, you can act faster. The sooner you start treatment, the longer you're likely to live. And think of the other guy.

SLM TURNS INTO TWO GUYS, ONE OF THEM SLM, THE OTHER A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT GUY WITH GLASSES AND A BEARD. THEY ARE HOLDING HANDS.

VO: You could help prevent other guys from getting HIV. A guy who has been recently infected may be up to ten times more likely to spread HIV to his partners.

SLM IS STILL HOLDING HANDS WITH BEARDED GLASSES GUY. THEY SUDDENLY TURN INTO TEN PAPER DOLL CUT OUTS OF OTHER GUYS. SLM MORPHS BACK INTO HIMSELF AND TAKES A DEEP BREATH. HE NODS HIS HEAD AS IF 'YOU'RE RIGHT'. HE VOCALIZES 'NYAH'. IT IS AN 'A-HA' MOMENT.

VO: It's the right thing to do for you and for every other guy you're with. For more information and to find places you can get tested...
