Financial Times
Martin Wolf’s Words
We created an animated film to bring to life an article by Martin Wolf – chief economics commentator at the Financial Times.
Martin’s article explains how global trade imbalances occur – and why they matter. A charming voiceover was matched with characterful graphics, helping to land complex subject matter, simply. Off the back of the film, the FT commissioned an extensive series of further videos, which proved a great success in driving conversions to their paid subscriptions.
