African Initiatives - Maisha Bora from Tim Hawkins on Vimeo.



I directed and animated this film for African initiatives, a Bristol-based charity working in Tanzania.

Visually, I took a lot of inspiration from African textiles and prints to create something that felt quite natural and handmade.
The animation is a mixture of Photoshop drawings, rigged After Effects, frame by frame in TVPaint and Photoshop as well as a little bit of Cinema4D.
