For their final project at VFS, Dewi Mariam and Christian Whiticar wanted to create something strong and relevant. And with an interest in the loss of biodiversity, they decided to tackle four issues in PSA form that contribute to such loss: deforestation, global warming, over-exploitation and pollution, placing emphasis on the current animals most affected by each area.

I really like the illustrative aesthetic and how animation was kept to a minimum to not overshadow the narrative.

“Whenever creating, make sure you are passionate and continually excited about what you are producing. Pre-production is so important. Never jump into something without having something solid or you may waste countless hours. All in all, be expected to work hard when you want to create something you are proud of.”
