The Open University
Creating a 2D animation exploring the migration for inclusive african growth
The Brief
For an Open University commission, the brief was to create a flat colour voiceover driven animation that explored the lead academic’s research and findings for current and past trends of economic migration in Africa.
The Outcome
We created an animation that illustrated the the ideas in an interesting and creative way. The film’s semi-remote production model also allowed the lead academic to deliver their contribution from the other side of the world.

What Our Customers Say
From the outset, the Main Media team understood our aim to add storytelling to the project experience. The team went over and above for Havens Hospices. They took time to understand the cause and why it matters to our community, which shone through the final films.

The entire process, from start to finish, was seamless, thanks to the efforts of the whole Main Media team. What stood out most was how well they understood our brand and how they made the families involved in filming feel at ease.

Simply, they know exactly what they are doing. Give them the brief and they do the rest. No fuss and the end result is always professional and well executed.
Denise Rossiter / CEO
The team are brilliant. They are creative and so easy to work with. They find solutions to problems and ill thought out filming areas (Science Museum flashback!). They turn things around really quickly, are very high quality, provide creative input and are really cost competitive. They are also adept at working with people at all levels and making even the most nervous interviewee feel comfortable
