Unearthing The Atlantic Forest's Secrets — A Mini Documentary Collaboration with Kew Gardens
Nestled in the heart of Brazil lies the Atlantic Forest, a treasure trove of biodiversity, brimming with vibrant plants, fungi, captivating birds, butterflies, reptiles, and amphibians. Among its many secrets, the recent discovery of a parasitic fungus that infects and kills spiders by Professor Alexandre Antonelli, the Director of Science at Kew Gardens, stands out.
At DevilBoy, we had the privilege of being part of this journey of discovery. Collaborating with Kew Gardens and fellow filmmaker Louise Stevens , DevilBoy played a pivotal role in transforming raw footage from the heart of the Atlantic Forest into a compelling narrative that breathes life into this unique ecosystem.
Our team's expertise was called in to assist with the intricate craft of animation and editing support. Working closely with Louise Stevens and Kew, our joint endeavor was to create a micro-documentary that allows viewers to journey through the forest, uncovering its secrets alongside Professor Antonelli and his team of world-leading experts.
The challenge and the beauty of this project lay in weaving a narrative that combines storytelling, pacing, and visual aesthetics. The result is a piece we're incredibly proud of, an immersive experience. Further information the the discovery can be found here.
This project encapsulates the transformative power of film and video to bring stories, environments, and scientific discoveries to life, further enriched by an original music score by Louie Cooper.
