BBC Bitesize commissioned us to produce a short, animated video designed to inspire children about writing.
As our concept we took Jules Verne's Around the World in 80 days - likening the writer to an explorer. As a writer sits at their desk a page of their notebook is caught by the wind, drifting out the window into the shape of a hot air balloon. The balloon then travels from the past to the future - through historical places as well as magical lands. We wanted to demonstrate that with nothing but a pencil you can write about the real world, but also that you have the entire realm of the imaginary at your fingertips.
Narrated by Maureen Lipman and beautifully designed and animated by Lilian Fu, this video introduces different types of writing to children at Key Stage 1.
