Scottish Guardianship Service Animation

The Scottish Refugee Council and Aberlour have been running the Scottish Guardianship Service for unattended child refugees arriving in Scotland for 10 years now. For their 10th anniversary they needed a film which showed what the experience of arriving in Scotland is like and how it can be different with the help of the service. The animation was accompanied by updated branding and a print document with verbatim stories from the service users who feature at the end of the film.The animation is all about the experience of one refugee and his guardian, so my focus was on making the characters expressive, through their faces and guestures. It uses a mix of narrative, character driven animation, with integrated infographics explaining the service.Artwork and animation is by me. Script development and sound design are by the team at media co-op. #illustrator #motiondesigner #animator #2Danimator #animation #illustration #motiondesign
