David Foote animated video
I created this emotional animated video for Stuff to accompany the untold story of an Army nurse, David Foote, who risked his life to save others at the Battle of Baghak: 'There was a firefight going on around me'. Fortunately he survived the fight and narrates the video by reading out the letter he wrote to his daughter the night before going to battle. I used slower animated movement to invoke emotion and a low frame speed to give it more of a stop animation feel. I also used a camera and depth of field, plus an animated flickering effect to give it more movement.
