Craig Wilson’s moving film is beautiful and timeless in the way only hand-drawn animation can be. We asked Craig what inspired him to create Human Nature:
The inspiration behind it was to focus the viewers attention on the “small and insignificant” by amplifying the depth of destruction our footprint leaves on the earth. As I note in the film’s synopsis. “They say its the little things that count, indeed they do and they all add up to a global scale.” More on Craig and his work follows the video.
