The National Gallery approached Sentio Space to create a one minute explainer video for ARTiculation, a programme that helps young people to become more confident by engaging with art.
The film was Directed by Angelica Lena and animated by Michelle Brand. The brief set out the importance of creating a style that sits with the brand identity of the programme, which had recently been revamped.
A limited colour palette, bold colours, and a combination of human textures with angular line work on the characters, meant we were able to create something fresh, dynamic and grounded.
The National Gallery now has a quality piece of content that it can use for years to come to succinctly convey the role and purpose of ARTiculation.
