The Indian Sundarbans is home to millions of people and the region’s endangered Bengal tigers. In recent years, rising sea levels and deadly storms forced farmers to travel deep into the tigers’ forests to make a living. Hundreds of men have been killed, leaving widows impoverished and shunned.

RESPONSIBILITIES
Working closely with the script and interview transcripts, I animated a series of vignettes used throughout the documentary. The animations were based on first-person accounts of climate displacement and tiger attacks.
I researched and developed the visual style and color palette for the animations.
I created storyboards, rough animatics, and produced the final animations using Procreate and Procreate Dreams. I used After Effects to edit the animations and synchronized them with the interview audio.
Finally, I designed the documentary’s poster and landing page.
