New animations for core programs

Overview

A new suite of animations has been created for core SilverCloud programs. Their purpose is to:

1. Provide a new media experience for users working through a program. They will enhance the accessibility of the programs for all users, as well as facilitating a more interactive way of engaging with the content.
2. Introduce key concepts and vocabulary early in a module, in an easily digestible way. The intention is for the user to become broadly familiar with aspects of the content, before they journey through the module, where they will learn more about these complex concepts.
3. Provide metaphors and examples which can help users relate more easily to the psychoeducational content of each module.
