“Good, strong, clear narratives, that fascinates and explains”

Animated communication : How to ‘search’ and ‘build’ while upholding danish law.

These two films were created to aid communication between danish museums and the public, specifically when dealing with a construction project (“Byg med hensyn“) and what you do when you are a detector operator (“Søg med omtanke“).

GoodJobStudios:
1. wrote the script together with three archaeologists for two 40-second films, which conveyed what to do, in order to follow the danish museums law.

2. Then produced the two films myself (music, sound, hired voice actors).

“The world around you is filled with bacteria. Some make you sick, but most of them are useful. Even though you can’t see them, collectively they weigh more than all plants and animals put together. They often live in symbiosis with other organisms, in fact even with you. Only 10% of your cells are your own – the rest are bacteria from over 700 different species of bacteria that live in and on your body. Most bacteria you host – up to 2 kilograms – live in your intestines. Together, you form a superorganism, which we call human.”

Amit H. Sachdev and Frank G. Gress share some of the best ways to prevent colon cancer.”
