ARAB NEWS - CALLIGRAPHY

We had the pleasure of collaborating with the team at Wild to animate this beautiful piece about calligraphy for Arab News. The goal was to bring the rich history of calligraphy to life in a captivating 45-second animation.


Our challenge was to condense a detailed article into bite-sized, animated chapters, which required a careful balance of storytelling and visual design. We worked with renowned illustrator Michael Driver, whose premium 2D illustrations provided the perfect foundation for a dynamic and engaging narrative. The result is a visually striking animation that not only captures the essence of calligraphy but also presents its cultural significance in a concise, yet impactful, way.
