As the first client-based project for the Bureau for the Betterment of the World through Design, Simon Robson’s global warming film “Coalition of the Willing” was a wonderful opportunity for us to spread our creative wings. Utilizing Sébastien Larreur’s stop-motion mastery and tapping into the ingenious resourcefulness of both he and Elliott Chaffer, everyday food items came to life to show what happens when people with good ideas come together to fight a global threat. Metaphorically, of course. You can see the film in its entirety at the official Coalition website here: http://coalitionofthewilling.org.uk/
