SIMON ROBINSON SAVES THE CHILDREN

SIMON ROBINSON : NEXUS PRODUCTIONS

Nexus‘ Simon Robinson has created two films for Save the Children that clearly and powerfully communicate the charity’s message that simple solutions save lives. Collaborating with Wieden and Kennedy, and using his signature mix of 2D and 3D animation with innovative transtitions, Robson’s films, called ‘Clever’ and ‘If’, mirror the straightforward narration of the voice over: that the lives of nearly ten million kids could have been saved if the world invested in simple things like specially treated mosquito nets and micronutrient peanut butter. Both films end with the same question, ‘We Save the Children. Will you?’
