FREEDOM FROM A FISH TANK: THE GREAT ESCAPE STORY

2024

Science Meets Fishy Rebellion

When a tiny fish outsmarts a lab experiment, you know it’s a story worth telling. Animal Behavior Biologist Ivan Vinogradov shared this wild true tale, and we brought it to life with vibrant, dynamic animation. Packed with humor, action, and just a touch of scientific mischief, this is one great escape you won’t forget!

Inside the Project

For a second imagine you are a fish. You are in a fish tank (sorry). On top of that you're in a science experiment (we ask for your forgiveness). But then you look up and realise that the lid hasn't been closed properly. What would you do? Escape! 

Ivan Vinogradov, a science communicator and Animal Behavioral Biologist shared this experience and we designed the visuals for this stranger-than-life story.

Method to the Madness

This is the true story of a little fish overcoming great odds and we decided to bring a bright but pared-back graphic approach to the animation, leaving plenty of possibility for the action sequences of the great escape. Ivan, the narrator of the film, shines throughout the story with his quirky humour and childlike wonder. Although this mishap might have set scientific research back a few years, we love this story and we hope you do too.
