MEASLES

Measles is a comic animation about a serious subject…

This is what happens when Amnesty International asks a bunch of comedians to write a script about the alarming proliferation of small arms and ammunition in the world. Co-written and directed by Open Sky’s Lisle Turner in collaboration with animation company Sweet World TV, it starred the legendary Brian Cox. On the day of recording Brian’s voiceover, he was horribly sick with flu. He insisted the show must go on and his real-life lurgy added a whole level of authenticity to his character, a Measles virus!

Winner of a British Animation Award 2008.

ANIMATED SHORT. 2MINS.
