Mishcon Business Shapers – Series 1
We worked closely with our friends Quite Frankly Productions to produce this series of animated films for London law firm Mishcon de Reya. Business Shapers is a Jazz FM show hosted by Mishcons’ own Elliot Moss, where he chats with various inspirational folk from a range of different industries.
Each hour long interview was edited down into a two minute version – part personal bio, part business advice – which formed the basis of the films we eventually made.
Working with an additional animation team of freelancers, we produced all six films at our studio in Bristol. We developed a visual style that mixes traditional hand-drawn animation, 2D motion-graphics and 3D animation. We also developed a custom hand-drawn typeface that was used across all films to help give the whole campaign a coherent visual feel.
Several of the films were also featured in the Creative Review iPad app in November 2012.
