We teamed up with BBC Storyworks to produce a short animation for POET (a bioethanol producer), explaining the sustainability benefits of using biofuel rather than fossil fuels.
We teamed up with BBC Storyworks to produce a short animation for POET (a bioethanol producer), explaining the sustainability benefits of using biofuel rather than fossil fuels.
We created a punchy, fast-moving animation that neatly explains what bioethanol is, how it is produced, and why it’s a whole lot better than burning fossil fuels. Our animation style incorporates clear shapes, bold colours, and imaginative transitions with an energetic sound track to get and hold the viewer’s attention, and to make the topic relatable.

Communicating with clarity and sensibility through online channels is now a defining feature of effective educational institutions. Animation is an increasingly popular route, as it allows diverse characters and multiple locations to be realised without the need of film crews and location scouts. Identities can be concealed when sensitivity is required. And it is at home with younger audiences.
