HUMANITARIAN PERSPECTIVE

OBJECTIVE
This animated video was a final project for my Grade 12 English class in which we had to develop a thesis based off the book Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson. Our thesis had to be presented in an unconventional format, and I decided to loosely base my project on animated TED talks.

PROCESS
A couple thousand hand-drawn frames and hundreds of hours went into the creation of this video. The style itself was kept pretty simple in order to optimize coherency, and a large range of metaphors were used to sync up with the narrated thesis.
