Merck ‘The Journey’

A short awareness film on microplastics. The viewer imparts on a journey from the point of view of a microplastic, highlighting its invisible proximity within humans and ecosystems. This project involved the creation of a variety of miniature tabletop worlds, special effects wizardry and a whole load of camera geekery as well as some pretty nippy days out on the Kent coast in December! 'The Journey' was a fun challenge, wrapping our heads around the unique POV's when setting scale for each of the 'scenes'.⁠ Collaborating with an incredible team of creatives with a view to telling a story that resonates on a personal emotional level.
