Action Poetry

Starting with a chance meeting at a cocktail party, we were able to convince U.S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins to record eleven of his poems for us. With literally no budget or client, we worked with nine animators to create eleven unique short films that subsequently aired on the Sundance Channel and went on to win a Silver Lion at Cannes, a Gold Pencil at the One Show and a Silver ANDY, amongst others. Four of the films are below - the rest can be seen at the full Action Poetry link.
