BBC Coronavirus Poem

A 2D animated Short film

Helping to portray a part of history using animation.

BBC Coronavirus Poem 2020: Welcome

About this project

The BBC were given a poem about Coronavirus from poet Matt Harvey at the start of lockdown. They decided that they wanted to have a small team of students to create an animation to go with the poem. Myself and my director work asked specifically to partake in the project and so i put together a small team of our best students at Falmouth University and we got to work. We managed to get this whole project completed in under 6 weeks which I believe is a great achievement. Both myself and the director were also interviewed on BBC Spotlight. This project was a really great experience to get right after graduating from Falmouth University. It allowed me to work as a producer with professionals working in the industry. It was also great to make visuals for something that is going to be a big part of history.
