The brief

When fishing season closes, Brazil's fishing communities lose their main income, and their stories never leave the villages.

The idea

Local fishermen's folklore, produced into a multimedia storytelling format that repositions the closed season as cultural tourism.

What I did

Built the motion design that carries the fishermen's oral stories between live action and animation. Handmade textures and loose timing, to stay out of the way of the fishermen's voices.

Result

Silver at Cannes Lions 2025 in both Audio & Radio and Brand Experience.
