The Hidden Cost of War



The Hidden Cost of War is an animation by artists Matt Owens , MacKenzie Fegan, Andrew Bouvé, Rus Garofalo, Michael Schaubach, Lindsay Utz, Morgan Currie & Jason Bishop.
I love how simple it appears, with the 4 colours and simple lines and shapes, but it is actually quite detailed and clever. Each part of the animation links to the other with perfect editing. I like the style of the editing, with the speeded / zoomed up parts. The animation itself is all curved 'friendly' edges, and is a really good way to communicate something that isn't so friendly. The 'cost of war' content is displayed in an easy to listen / read way, but it is easy to digest.
