Mission Blue ~ with Framestore

— A world without the Ocean, is a world without Us.

My second (Emmy winning) feature documentary collaboration with Academy Award + Emmy winning Director and Producer Fisher Stevens (the other being Emmy nominated - Racing Extinction).

The Brief: The ask was to create motion-design sequences with GRAVITAS. Imaginative, yet sober info-graphics communicating the catastrophic environmental effects of industry on the world's oceans.

The Film: Emmy-winning documentary feature detailing the life and work of legendary oceanographer and TED prize winner Dr. Sylvia Earle - as we follow her on her mission to save the worlds oceans. Mission Blue is part action-adventure, part expose of an Eco-disaster. More than 100 scientists, philanthropists and activists gather in the Galapagos Islands to help fulfill Dr. Earle's lifelong wish: build a global network of marine protected areas, like underwater national parks, to protect the natural systems that keep humans alive. As the expedition ends, the Deep water Horizon oil well explodes. With oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, Sylvia and an environmental dream team race around the world trying to defend her 'Hope Spots'.
