International Committee
of the Red Cross
Explainer Video
2021
Our team at Sine De Oro Productions was approached by the ICRC to create three training videos for Red Cross volunteers working in the field.
I was responsible for storyboarding, illustrating, and animating two of the videos: Information and Feedback.
We began by creating the storyboard based on the script provided by the producer.
Below are some of the storyboarded scenes.

Information Frame 1
VO: Everyday, we take in different kinds of information, from news headlines to what’s going on in the lives of our family and friends.
Action: ICRC staff stands in front of different sources of information as aid as a conflict/crash hits a community.
Information Frame 3
VO: Find out the accessible, preferred, and trusted communication channels. Keep in mind that different groups will have different communication and information needs.
Action: Elements circle around, Comms Icon drops down to next frame for visual fluidity.
Feedback Frame 1
VO: When communities are involved in shaping aid response, it becomes easier to manage and address feedback when projects are already up and running.
Action: Establishing shot of the community. Speech bubbles pop up one by one as the camera pans right.
Next, we created the style frames, followed by animating the scenes and putting everything together.
