SHEBA® - Hope Reef
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Visual Effects / Computer-Generated / 2022
Hope Reef required three complex CG environments to bring the story to life. The 90-second film follows the journey of a Chromis fish from tragedy to hope as it weaves through the Indo-Pacific. As it passes over a devastated coral reef towards a healthy reef bed, it serves as a bittersweet reminder of what's at stake. In the final act, the Chromis encounters Hope Reef, a coral reef planted by people to spell out the word 'hope'. This idea sits at the heart of SHEBA brand's mission to support vital reef-growing projects and marks the start of the world's largest coral reef restoration programme.
