This animated film for Greenpeace Aotearoa reveals industrial agriculture as the quiet climate villain: Big Ag. The story plays out across two worlds: a gritty, monochrome dining table of familiar “Big” villains, and a hyper-saturated, game-like 2D universe where Big Ag’s appetite runs wild. Handcrafted, stop-motion characters sit alongside 2d digital animation, mixing charm with threat. Careful timing, playful textures, and custom sound design guide viewers from misdirection to impact. By letting animation, rhythm, and visual storytelling carry the story, the film makes Big Ag’s scale and urgency instantly clear — without ever feeling preachy.
