Disney

A GEMA award-winning promo for National Geographic’s Beneath The Waves; a month-long event of breathtaking documentaries and expert insights, uncovering the impact of human activity, and highlighting the urgent need for conservation.

Created in the style of historic scientific illustrations; the scenes, featuring a wide variety of underwater life, were brought to life with subtle motion and atmospheric shadows.
