Baby In The Sky by Bonzom

Here’s a gorgeous new public service announcement directed by Jack-Antoine Charlot of Bonzom, the French team whose work you remember from Mika’s Lollipop. This go-round sees them creating a psychedelic and fantastic world for Global Fund to raise awareness of HIV infection in mothers and children. The narrative is fairly abstract, but the visuals are lush and quite engaging. The joyous and energetic 2D animation style really sets this apart from the typical dry, statistical and scary PSAs. Nice work!

RIP Boards Mag

As of less than an hour ago, every form of industry chatter has been focused on one thing: the end of Boards Mag. It has been confirmed that the 10 year run of one of the leading mags on commercial production has come to an end.

The amazing editorial crew of Rae-Ann Fera, Ed White, Kevin Ritchie and Christine Clarke consistently elevated the creative dialogue from their in-depth writing to their global events — and we’re all better off for it.

As friends of Motionographer, we’ve been humbled by their continuous support. We’ll all be waiting in anticipation to see where you land next. Until then, take a breath and have some drinks for us in Toronto tonight!
